Project Information
Terrain Hole Utility is a package for unity that extends the existing terrain functionality to improve hole generation in editor and at runtime.
It was built off of a script I developed for a game jam project in Wesleyan's Video Game Architecture in Unity course.
Medium: C#, Unity
Role: Programmer
Duration: 2 Weeks
Release: Pending Asset Store approval
Programming
Designed, implemented, and tested extensible suite of functions and classes that allow for generation of holes at runtime in unity.
- Created Hole Builder class that provides user with dynamically generated center and positioning information to account for terrain edges.
- Built tools to convert between coordinates in terrain and world space.
- Implemented editor tools to enable saving and loading height and hole maps to and from textures.
- Provided 7 built-in hole profiles: Rectangle, Circle, Diamond, Ellipse, Squircle, Ring, and Square Ring.
- Used suite of tools to implement terrain-hole based game using world-to-terrain coordinate conversions and holes generated at runtime.
Pseudocode for an algorithm that used these tools to dynamically generate holes at positions with bounding boxes.
