AtmosphereFromGround

The AtmosphereFromGround { } subnode of the Atmosphere { } node describes the atmosphere's color when seen in LocalSpace.

Example #

Atmosphere
{
	AtmosphereFromGround
	{
		DEBUG_alwaysUpdateAll = False
		doScale = True
		waveLength = 0.864102423, 0.807692051, 0.650640965, 0.5
		samples = 4
		innerRadiusMult = 0.975
		outerRadiusMult = 1.025
	}
}

Property	Format	Description
DEBUG_alwaysUpdateAll	Boolean	Whether all parameters should get recalculated and reapplied every frame.
doScale	Boolean	Whether the atmosphere mesh should be scaled automatically.
innerRadius	Decimal	The lower bound of the atmosphere effect in meters.
outerRadius	Decimal	The upper bound of the atmosphere effect in meters.
invWaveLength	BandOffset	The inverse wavelength. Either this OR waveLength should be used. The inverse wavelength is equivalent to each of the color values of the waveLength as x: 1/(x^4) with an alpha of 0.5.
waveLength	BandOffset	The wavelength of the atmosphere. Either this OR invWaveLength should be used. The wavelength is equal to each of the color values of the invWaveLength as x: sqrt(sqrt(1/x)) with an alpha of 0.5.
samples	Decimal	?
transformScale	Vector3	The scale of the atmosphere mesh in all three directions. Automatically set if doScale is enabled. If this is set, then doScale is set to false automatically.
innerRadiusMult	Decimal	A multiplier that automatically sets innerRadius based on the planet's radius. Replaces innerRadius.
outerRadiusMult	Decimal	A multiplier that automatically sets outerRadius based on the planet's radius. Replaces outerRadius.

BandOffset is an input type unique to AtmosphereFromGround and is not strictly a color. Instead, it is the amount a series of specifically-colored bands are offset up and down. The way in which these bands overlap determine the atmosphere color. Note that in waveLength, a value of 1 means the band is all the way down. Usage of KittopiaTech is recommended to set these parameters.
