- When using a slow-moving noise generator to sample a huge number of positions during #minecraft #modding worldgen, you can skip over a few spot if the noise value is too far from your target threshold. Gives a significant speed boost when values are at extremes. (X in pic are skipped checks) #mcdev
- Basically the idea is sample more frequently when you get close to the threshold you want and sample less frequently when farther away from the threshold because it'll take some extra positions before the noise generator will start returning values close to the threshold again.Dec 6, 2024 16:53
- In this case, this is more applicable to noise generators such as Perlin or Simplex. Noise generators that create a smooth gradual changing noise values based on input positions.
