WARNING: This scene is made for a tech savvy audience!
Terrain generator to create complex and unique terrain for offroading purposes.
HOW TO USE:

Set the parameters, or use the default parameters (not adding presets YET though).
After you are happy with the set parameters, click "Generate" and wait for it to create your terrain.

Once the terrain is generated, move it so that the bottom left corner is at 0, 0.

Once you are ready to cut the terrain, right click the laser below the generator and set _on to true.


Note: For more detailed terrain, turn down the length and create multiple pieces because Algodoo will automatically "smooth" complex polygons.

HOW IT WORKS:

The terrain generator uses a sine function to generate mountains. It is affected by random noise which alters the shape of the sine waves. Other random noise (rockiness) can also directly affect the output.

The magnitude can be thought of as the multiplier. 0 magnitude will create rectangles, and 5 magnitude will create giant spike beds.

Sample size is how much the generator "moves" each step. For a sample size of 0.2, the terrain will move up or down every 0.2 meters.
Mountain frequency is how frequently the sine function runs. For a frequency of 0.3, the sine step will increase by 0.3 every step.

5 steps are executed every frame.

After it creates the desired amount of terrain, it generates it as a polygon and resets the generator, ready to use again.

You are allowed to use the terrain generated by this with or without credit.
Afterall, technically I'm not making the terrain, your own computer is!
