How to make a 3d grid?

[ninjacookielegend (sus)]

Hey, I was thinking about how I could make a 3d grid, I’m pretty sure you have to make use of a sound map or something. But can somebody please give me any easy example, just a simple map that is made out of cubes the size of however many studs by however many studs, also how would you change the elevation of cubes in some areas.

sound map or something

It’s math.noise.

If you want a simpler example you could reduce the dimensions and start off with a 2D grid like in this Okeanisky tutorial which does it step by step.

If you want to go straight into 3D you can look at @ThanksRoBama who has done a lot of heavy lifting with example scripts you can play around. Twirling was the best thing I learnt from the post to create those cool features.

Voxel generation

Welp, you got me started down a really deep rabbit hole… Here’s what I found There’s no reason that you can’t use both 2D noise for a heightmap and use 3D noise to determine which cells are solid and which are air. The height map can influence the 3D “density map”. This is probably the best way of making sure you have no floating islands that aren’t connected to the rest of the terrain while still allowing overhangs. At least that’s my preferred method. To get the overhangs y…

WOW, I must sound pretty stupid for saying sound map. Well hey, I have been scripting for a long time and terrain generation is one of the only things that I haven’t studied much. But thanks for the topic though.

Your CCDIKController is epic.
