Thankyou boot, The stats bars at the top left will have a make over soon. I was going to update both the stats bars and the icons down the bottom at the same time, since the icons down the bottom recently had a make over, but I haven’t thought of a nice way to put the 4 bars together, I have a couple ideas but haven’t picked one yet to implement at the moment.
I’m using storing chunks of terrain around the player and the chunks have their detail reduced based on how far they are from the player. so the chunk your standing on and every adjacent tile around the tile your standing on will initialize with every tile in the chunk, every tile further then the adjacent tile your standing on will only initialize every second tile and the lowest detail chunk (very far) will only initialize with every fourth tile.
A chunk consists of 50 by 50 tiles each tile is rendered by checking adjacent tile heights i’m rendering the chunk in a vertex buffer and drawing the chunk with UserIndexedPrimitives.
