For supplementary informations, i mean, like, the light level of the sun and a synopsis of all the post-processing effects and where they can be found/observed. Also, is there a name for the lighting system? As in, how the light diffuses. In addition, the maximum light level would be nice to know.

Damn... All the markers are cut up and have no color. I'd have to assemble them from scratch to get anything done with that. I guess I'll just get what I can with my snipping tool.

I guess this means I'll need a volunteer to meet me at spawn so I can collect the sprites... But everyone else is dead. :(

Another question: How many varieties of tree are there? I know there are at least two different basic leaf types and the coniferous leaves, but what are all the tree types? I know there's a small thin trunked tree, a large branched tree, a large trunked tree, and the large coniferous trees... but is that all? EDIT: I have an article on trees that I think explains things well enough here, but it never hurts to be thorough. ALSO, I'm researching leafs, columns, and nodes. So... Edits to a leafs(which are 32x32x32) are saved every midnight as a branch; leaves are categorized in columns(32x32x128?) and stored in nodes, which are files that each account for 1024x1024x128 areas of land... and there are about 6 commands associated with leafs and columns. That about right? EDIT: Completed this page, but it's probably not as complete as it should be. Anyone with more knowledge on the subject is advised to curate. I know for a fact that the commands need more details, but I'm lazy so ye.

If anyone can make an image compilation of the 28(?) moon phases, I would be in your debt. Overwise, I'll get around to it eventually. If you want to do it, I have a set of all the phase images in a folder I can send to you. ALSO, post-processing effects has been written here.

Documentation of all the current features is now... COMPLETE!The documentation may need a little spit-shine here and there just so everything is accounted for, but that's what all these questions are for. Especially for the PPFX. I know NOTHING about that stuff ... And now I feel like I'm compensating for the entire community when I look at the post history.

Your dedication is admirable. ... And now I feel like I'm compensating for the entire community when I look at the post history. Don't be sad

Thanks for all the work. Future explorers will certainly appreciate it, too.
If you still have open questions from this thread then please summarize them in one post for me... as I couldn't tell what you really needed to know, what you'd already figured out yourself, etc..

Ah, sorry. They're a little... disjointed, I know. Questions: 1. How many different varieties of trees are there? Like, there are thick trunked trees, thin trunked trees, branched thick trunked trees... But are there others? 2. A summary of the post-processing effects would be nice, to check against what I already have. Or, you could just curate this and see what I missed: http://mythruna.com/mediawiki/index.php?title=Post-processing_Effects#Light_source_effects3. I'm not terribly knowledgeable about the leaf/column/node system, so if you have the time to curate this as well, it would be much appreciated. If you think I missed anything important, do tell. I'm not too skilled at the technical stuff. http://mythruna.com/mediawiki/index.php?title=Post-processing_Effects#Light_source_effectsCommunity requests/I'm lazy requests that aren't aimed at Paul:If anyone can make an image compilation of the 28(?) moon phases, I would be in your debt. Overwise, I'll get around to it eventually. If you want to do it, I have a set of all the phase images in a folder I can send to you. Anywho, I'll work on the planned features now, as best I can.

I'm half tempted to just copy and paste everything Paul said about certain planned features and doing it that way.

(1) I think there are four/five (depending on how you count them) deciduous trees and three pine tree types. The simple trees are what I call the lollipop trees (ball on a stick) in two sizes and the one with the different leaves that has a slightly more cone shape. Kind of a cross between a tree and a bush. Then there are the maple trees. Those are the tall bushy ones that make kind of a big dome that goes almost all the way to the ground. Then there are what I call "scrub" trees... the super tall ones with random branches but not much foliage. These are essentially modified maples without the thick canopy. For pines, there are regular, small, and scrub. The regular ones are tall but have branches that start near the ground. The small ones or really short and often only have a thin trunk. (More like christmas trees) The scrub are similar to the tall ones except their branches start way up off the ground. Somewhere I think I have pictures of all of these but I don't remember where. Or maybe I'm just thinking of the ones I took for the donations icons.

(2) I'm not sure what to say. The only real post processing effect is the Bloom. There is a depth blur that engages when you are underwater.
(3) I haven't looked at the page but your description sounded pretty right.
The world 'columns' actually go up to 160 right now (5 leafs high) it's just that the terrain only generates up to 128.
Node: 1024x1024x160 meters (32x32 columns) Column: 32x32x160 meters (5 leafs) Leaf: 32x32x32
