trigger_auto: Delay the trigger of them in singleplayer until 1 player has joined Misc cleanups. The 'Janitor Simulator' on TWHL should work now.

# Materials: Commands {#mat_commands}
|
||
## skyparms
|
||
### Overview
|
||
|
||
**skyParms <farbox> <cloudheight> <nearbox>**
|
||
|
||
Specifies how to use the surface as a sky, including an optional far box
|
||
(stars, moon, etc), optional cloud layers with any shader attributes,
|
||
and an optional near box (mountains in front of the clouds, etc). Some
|
||
of the VMAP specific commands use this as a reference as to what skybox
|
||
to use for color, intensity etc.
|
||
|
||
The renderer will take it into account only if you do not supply any
|
||
Stages in the material.
|
||
|
||
**<farbox>** Specifies a set of files to use as an environment box
|
||
behind all cloudlayers. Specify "-" for no farbox, or a file base name.
|
||
A base name of "env/test" would look for files "env/test_rt.tga",
|
||
"env/test_lf.tga", "env/test_ft.tga", "env/test_bk.tga",
|
||
"env/test_up.tga", "env/test_dn.tga" to use as the right / left / front
|
||
/ back / up / down sides.
|
||
|
||
**<cloudheight>** controls apparent curvature of the cloud layers -
|
||
lower numbers mean more curvature (and thus more distortion at the
|
||
horizons). Higher height values create "flatter" skies with less horizon
|
||
distortion. Think of height as the radius of a sphere on which the
|
||
clouds are mapped. Good ranges are 64 to 256. The default value is 128.
|
||
|
||
**<nearbox>** Specified as farbox, to be alpha blended ontop of the
|
||
clouds. This has not be tested in a long time, so it probably doesn't
|
||
actually work. Set to "-" to ignore.
|
||
|
