Detailed Description
Member Function Documentation
bool Biome::byClimate() const
Returns whether the climate chooses this biome (not a river or delta biome).
Member Variable Documentation
QcBlockId Biome::beach
The ground where land meets the sea at most a block above the sea level, a delta's banks flush with the water, and in patches the banks of the rivers of this river biome.
bool Biome::delta
A delta biome, which the climate never chooses either (decision E-850).
int Biome::deltaBiome
Land biomes: the index of the delta biome of their river deltas, -1 without one.
QList<std::pair<int, double>> Biome::features
Index into features and density per column; the vegetation layers come last.
int Biome::frozenDepth
Only water at most this many blocks deep takes frozenWater (decision E-850); 0: all.
QcBlockId Biome::frozenWater
The block the top water layer freezes to; the water itself when the biome's water does not freeze.
QList<std::pair<int, double>> Biome::giants
Giant trees (decision E-822): index into features and chance per cell of QcTerrainDefinitions::giantCell blocks, from their density per column; not in features.
QString Biome::name
The biome's content name.
int Biome::overhang
Overhang amplitude in blocks; 0 keeps plain columns.
std::array<QcTerrainDefinitions::VegetationPatches, VegetationLayers> Biome::patches
The patches of each vegetation layer (decision E-814).
double Biome::rarity
How rare the biome is (decision E-821); 0 for an ordinary biome.
double Biome::ridges
Share of the variation in [0, 1] that comes from sharp ridges.
bool Biome::river
A river biome, which the climate never chooses (decision E-840).
int Biome::riverBiome
Land biomes: the index of the river biome of their rivers, -1 without one.
QcBlockId Biome::snow
The surface block above the snow line.
int Biome::snowLine
The surface at and above about this height (jittered by a few blocks) takes snow; 0: none.
double Biome::spread
How far the biome reaches beyond its neighbours in climate space (decision E-824).
QcBlockId Biome::surface
The top block of its land.
QList<std::pair<QcBlockId, double>> Biome::surfacePatches
Delta biomes: patches of other blocks among surface on their land (decision E-850).
int Biome::terraceHeight
Height of terrace steps in blocks; 0 for none.
QcBlockId Biome::underwater
The ground block under water.
QList<std::pair<QcBlockId, double>> Biome::underwaterPatches
Patches of other blocks among underwater (decision E-840): block and share.
