Cylinder collision shape. One of the requirements was adding support for cylinder shapes in Godot's custom collision detection system. Technical details: Godot Physics is almost entirely based on the SAT algorithm for collision detection, but cylinders can't entirely rely on that. Heightmap collision shape.

This chapter is all about how I solved it (so far) to be able to place all kinds of assets like 3D-meshes or self-growing fractal seeds on the terrain. Let’s assume we do it for each vertex on a mesh with let’s say 10’000 vertices.   Asset placement - depending on mesh height vertices.

Still, this workflow is easy and efficient as 3D objects get a second set of UVs generated on import, and baking works with instantiated meshes, scenes and even GridMaps. It is possible to either import a scene as a single file, or to split it into multiple instantiated subscenes, keep materials, meshes and animations external, etc.
