Unigine.WorldSplineGraph Class

Coordinates of the "up" vector are additionally stored for each point of the segment. You can specify this vector to define orientation of geometry or objects, that can be stretched or tiled along the segments of the spline graph. By default this vector is parallel to the Z axis. The "up" vector does not affect the form of the spline segment.

It is possible to obtain an interpolated value for any point belonging to a segment, this can be used for various purposes (e.g. to change road profile). Interpolated "up" vector can be calculated as follows (pseudocode):

Source code (C++)

vec3 lerpUpVector(vec3 start_up, vec3 end_up, float t) const
{
	float angle = acos(dot(start_up, end_up)) * RAD2DEG;
	vec3 rotation_axis = cross(start_up, end_up);

	return rotateAxisAngle(rotation_axis, angle * t) * start_up;
}

A world spline graph consists of segments and has a list of source nodes (currently ObjectMeshStatic, ObjectMeshSkinned, and DecalProj) that can be placed at points and along the segments of the spline graph. Each point and segment can have a single or a set of source nodes assigned. An arbitrary number of WorldSplineGraph nodes can be added to the scene.

WorldSplineGraph has the following features:

Points of the spline graph are managed via the SplinePoint class.
Segments of the spline graph are managed via the SplineSegment class.
3 modes are supported:
- stretching: source nodes are stretched along the spline segment.
- tiling: source nodes are duplicated along the spline segment.
- adaptive - represents a combination of the first two: source nodes are duplicated along the spline segment, but the length of each node (stretching) is determined by the curvature of the corresponding part of the segment. Thus, long nodes are placed along the straight parts of segments, while short ones - along the curved parts, providing a reasonable balance between the plausible look and performance.
Forward axis selection for stretching/tiling source nodes.

Default constructor. Creates an empty world spline graph.

WorldSplineGraph ( string name ) #

Constructor. Creates an empty world spline graph with a given name.

Arguments

string name - World spline graph name.

void SetSplineGraphName ( string name, bool force_load = 0 ) #

Sets the name of the world spline graph.

Arguments

string name - World spline graph name.
bool force_load - Force flag.
- If 1 is specified, the world spline graph will immediately loaded from a file.
- If 0 is specified, only the world spline graph name will be updated.

string GetSplineGraphName ( ) #

Returns the name of the world spline graph.

Return value

World spline graph name.

void LoadSegmentNodes ( int segment_index = -1 ) #

Loads source nodes assigned to the specified spline segment immediately.

Arguments

int segment_index - Segment index. If no segment index is specified, the method loads source nodes assigned to all segments.

void Clear ( ) #

Clears the world spline graph.

void MakeCurved ( ) #

Curves the world spline graph using its geodetic pivot. The spline file is saved upon completion of the curving operation.

Returns the list of all points of the world spline graph and puts them to the specified array of SplinePoint elements.

Arguments

SplinePoint[] OUT_points - Array to store the list of all points of the world spline graph.
Notice
This output buffer is to be filled by the Engine as a result of executing the method.

SplineSegment CreateSplineSegment ( SplinePoint start_point, vec3 start_tangent, vec3 start_up, SplinePoint end_point, vec3 end_tangent, vec3 end_up ) #

Creates a new spline segment with the specified parameters and attaches it to the world spline graph.

Arguments

SplinePoint start_point - Start point of the spline segment.
vec3 start_tangent - Tangent coordinates for the start point of the spline segment.
vec3 start_up - Coordinates of the "up" vector for the start point of the spline segment.
SplinePoint end_point - End point of the segment.
vec3 end_tangent - Tangent coordinates for the end point of the spline segment.
vec3 end_up - Coordinates of the "up" vector for the end point of the spline segment.

Return value

New spline segment connecting two specified points.

void RemoveSplineSegment ( SplineSegment segment, bool with_points = 0 ) #

Removes the specified spline segment from the world spline graph. You can set the with_points flag to remove the segment together with its start and end points.

Arguments

SplineSegment segment - Spline segment to be removed.
bool with_points - true to remove the segment with its start and end points, false to keep points. The default value is false.

void GetSplineSegments ( SplineSegment[] OUT_segments ) #

Returns the list of all segments of the world spline graph and puts them to the specified array of SplineSegment elements.

Arguments

SplineSegment[] OUT_segments - Array to store the list of all segments of the world spline graph.
Notice
This output buffer is to be filled by the Engine as a result of executing the method.

void Rebuild ( int try_force = 0 ) #

Rebuilds the world spline graph. This method is to be called after making any changes to spline segments (mode, etc.), point positions, tangents, or "up" vectors, as well as after changing source node assignments and/or other parameters (UV tiling, gap, etc.)

Arguments

int try_force - Forced rebuild flag: set 1 to try and force rebuild the world spline graph.

int IsRebuilding ( ) #

Returns a value indicating if the world spline graph is currently being rebuilt. The world spline graph uses a deferred rebuild.

Return value

1 if the world spline graph is currently being rebuilt; otherwise 0.

void SplitSplineSegment ( SplineSegment segment, float new_point_t ) #

Splits the specified spline segment into two parts by inserting a new point placed at the parametrically specified point on the T (times axis) in the [0.0f, 1.0f] range from the segment's start point.

Arguments

SplineSegment segment - Spline segment to be split.
float new_point_t - Coordinate of the splitting point of the segment along the horizontal T (times) axis in the range [0.0f, 1.0f].

void BreakSplinePoint ( SplinePoint point ) #

Breaks the specified spline point shared by several spline segments into a set of separate ones, so that each of the segments gets its own point.

Arguments

SplinePoint point - Spline point to be broken.
Notice
The point must be shared by a least 2 segments.

void WeldSplinePoints ( SplinePoint[] OUT_points ) #

Joins all spline points specified in the list into a single one, so that this point is shared by all spline segments having the specified points as starting or ending ones.

Arguments

SplinePoint[] OUT_points - List of spline points to be joined into a single one.
Notice
This output buffer is to be filled by the Engine as a result of executing the method.

bool IsLinked ( SplinePoint point ) #

Returns a value indicating if the specified spline point is linked to any spline segment.

Arguments

SplinePoint point - Spline point to be checked.

Return value

1 if the specified spline point is linked to any spline segment; otherwise, 0.
