WorldSwitcher Class

Warning
UnigineScript is deprecated and will be removed in future releases. Please consider using C#/C++ instead, as these APIs are the preferred ones. Availability of new Engine features in UnigineScipt is not guaranteed, as the current level of support assumes only fixing critical issues.
Inherits: Node

This class allows switching off (and turn on) big parts of the world at once. A switcher is made a parent for nodes it controls. It is of a box shape, and the distance from the camera can be measured to its edges or to its center.

WorldSwitcher Class

Members


static WorldSwitcher ( ) #

Constructor. Creates a world switcher.

void setMaxDistance ( float distance ) #

Sets the maximum distance of visibility. If a camera is further from a node than this maximum distance, a node is not visible.

Arguments

  • float distance - Maximum distance of visibility in units.

float getMaxDistance ( ) #

Returns the current maximum distance of visibility. If a camera is further from a node than this maximum distance, a node is not visible.

Return value

Maximum distance of visibility in units.

void setMinDistance ( float distance ) #

Sets the minimum distance of visibility. If a camera is closer to a node than this minimum distance, a node is not visible.

Arguments

  • float distance - Minimum distance of visibility in units.

float getMinDistance ( ) #

Returns the current minimum distance of visibility. If a camera is closer to a node than this minimum distance, a node is not visible.

Return value

Minimum distance of visibility in units.
