Road Tool
Short Description
Creates a customizable road/path mesh along input curves or splines.
Description
The Road Tool creates a road or path mesh based on input curves or splines. It provides various properties to control the road's size, shape, and subdivisions. Additionally, it allows for more advanced configurations like profiles and splits for fine-tuning the road mesh.
Properties
Base Properties
Curves: Curve to create a path mesh around
Width: Width of the path mesh
Inside Height: Raises the inner vertices of the mesh
Border Height: Raises the border vertices of the mesh
Profile Flatten: Flattens the profile from the center to the edges
Profile Settings
Profile Divisions: Number of divisions for the profile curve
Profile Smooth: Smoothness of the profile curve
Profile Angle: Angle of the profile curve
Profile Alignment: Aligns the profile curve to the path curve (Not compatible if Path Width - Width is used)
Look at points: Points to look at when using the 'Look At' profile alignment
Geometry Settings
Projection Mask: Projects the road onto the input meshes
Full Mesh: When on, the full road mesh will be considered, making the road follow closely the underlying mesh
UV Scale: Scale the UVs
Noise Scale: Controls the scale of the noise
Noise Intensity: Controls the intensity of the noise
Subdivision: Subdivisions of the mesh
Normals Angle: Normals angle of the mesh
Invert Normals: Inverts the normals of the mesh
Receive decals: If set to true, the road mesh receives decals
Path Width
Width: Creates two parallel meshes along the sides of the curves
Width - Keep Center: If set to true, the mesh objects at the center will be kept when using the width parameter for parallel curve scattering
Width - Sides: Number of parallel meshes to have on each side of the curves
Splits
Split Mode: Split the road at the specified distance or number of splits
Min Distance: Minimum distance between the splits
Max Distance: Maximum distance between the splits
Split Seed: Seed for the splits
Num Splits: Number of splits to create the road
Splits Offset: Offset the splits
Splits Threshold: Ignores the splits if the section's length is smaller than the threshold
Skip Nth: Skip every Nth split
Skip Nth Count: Count of splits to skip
Max Splits: Limit the maximum amount of splits per curve
