void SetWaterNode ( ObjectWaterGlobal value ) #
Sets the Water Global object to be used.Notice
The Water Global object is automatically found at the start of the project. Use this method only for dynamically created Water Global object.
Arguments
- ObjectWaterGlobal value - Water Global object.
ObjectWaterGlobal GetWaterNode ( ) #
Returns the currently used Water Global object.Return value
Water Global object.void SetSeaLevelSmoothBySpeed ( double unit_per_sec ) #
Sets the mode of smooth gradual change of the height of the sea level by the specified rate (in meters per second). The height of the sea level changes gradually from the current to target value by the specified value during each second, such smoothing is performed to make changes more realistic. Moreover, each value can be changed with its own rate (the rain starting fast with a slowly changing cloud coverage). This method fits best when the difference between the target and current value is either too big (e.g. visibility distance change from 10m to 1km) or too small (e.g. from 1m to 1.05m), avoiding too fast or too slow changes. For other cases you can also choose another mode "by time" to change the value from the current to target during the specified time interval via the setSeaLevelSmoothByTime().Arguments
- double unit_per_sec - Constant rate (in meters per second) with which the value gradually changes from the current to target.
void SetSeaLevelSmoothByTime ( float sec ) #
Sets the mode of smooth gradual change of the height of the sea level by the specified time interval. The barometric pressure changes gradually from the current to target value during this interval, such smoothing is performed to make changes more realistic. Moreover, each value can be changed with its own rate (the rain starting fast with a slowly changing cloud coverage). When the value of 0 is set, the value changes instantly. If the difference between the target and current value is too big (e.g. visibility distance change from 10m to 1km), the changes in this mode may be too fast and too noticeable, or on the contrary they might be too slow if the difference is too small (e.g. from 1m to 1.05m). In this case you can choose another mode to change the value with a specified rate via the setSeaLevelSmoothBySpeed().Arguments
- float sec - Time interval (in seconds) during which the value changes from the current to target.
void SetClaritySmoothBySpeed ( float unit_per_sec ) #
Sets the mode of smooth gradual change of the water clarity by the specified rate (in units per second). The water clarity changes gradually from the current to target value by the specified value during each second, such smoothing is performed to make changes more realistic. Moreover, each value can be changed with its own rate (the rain starting fast with a slowly changing cloud coverage). This method fits best when the difference between the target and current value is either too big (e.g. visibility distance change from 10m to 1km) or too small (e.g. from 1m to 1.05m), avoiding too fast or too slow changes. For other cases you can also choose another mode "by time" to change the value from the current to target during the specified time interval via the setClaritySmoothByTime().Arguments
