Region Configuration

You can configure regions inside Eldiron using the editor in the region section. Each region can have its own lighting and fog settings to create different visual moods and gameplay environments.

Example configuration:

  [rendering]
  receives_daylight = false
  fog_enabled = false
  fog_color = "#000000"
  fog_start_distance = 3.0
  fog_end_distance = 5.0

Settings​

receives_daylight​

  • Type: bool
  • Description: If set to true, the region will be lit by global daylight. Set this to false for interiors or dark areas like caves and dungeons.

fog_enabled​

  • Type: bool
  • Description: Enables or disables fog in the region. When true, fog will gradually fade the scene based on distance using the specified fog color.

fog_color​

  • Type: string (hex color code)
  • Description: The color of the fog, in hexadecimal format (e.g., "#000000" for black). This is the color objects will fade toward when fog is applied.

fog_start_distance​

  • Type: float
  • Description: The distance from the camera at which fog begins to appear. Objects closer than this distance will not be fogged.

fog_end_distance​

  • Type: float
  • Description: The distance from the camera at which fog becomes fully opaque. Objects beyond this distance will be fully fogged with the fog_color.

These values allow fine-tuning of each region’s atmosphere. You can experiment with different settings to achieve eerie underground scenes, bright outdoor valleys, or anything in between.
