Changing the scale of the terrain/regions

[LoipesMas]

I'm making a game, which operates on a smaller scale than your typical open world game, so I would like to trade size for detail. My map doesn't even fill a single region.

I think a property like "Terrain scale", which would just scale the mesh and the colliders, would solve that issue.

As a workaround, I could scale up everything else, but that's a lot (models, colliders, values in resources and scripts, etc.) and it doesn't seem like a good solution.

#77 and #131 are kinda related, but I don't need more detail in the region, I just need the region to be smaller (while keeping the resolution), so that 1 "pixel" is, for example 0.5m, instead of 1m.

I hope it makes sense and is possible, thanks!

#131 - Change density from 1px=1m to 1px=0.5m or 1px=2m. With a 1024px map, 1024m=512m or 2048m.
#77 - Change region map size from 1024px to 512px or 2048px

Density implies region map size increases to compensate, but I think in the context of #131 alone it is synonymous with scale. It sounds like you want #131 exactly. How is your request different?

[LoipesMas]

I thought #131 implied changing the region size as well, but thinking about it now, that would be the same thing as #77.
And from what I understood, #77 is harder to do, so I thought just changing the scale would be quicker than changing the size of the textures.

I think wording here is confusing, so I'll try to illustrate it with numbers:

Currently only option:

1024px region_size -> 1024m in game size

What I want:

with scale 0.5
1024px region_size -> 512m in game size
so same amount of data, but occupying smaller area

With #131 (without #77)

If I would set density to 2.0, what would be the result?

1. 1024px region_size -> 512m in game size
2. 2048px region_size -> 1024m in game size

I thought it would be 2., that's why I said it was different. But if it would be 1., then that's the same.
I mean, either one would work, but 2. would waste a lot of data (in my case)

With #77 (without #131)

Then I could just set region size to 512px
512px region_size -> 512m
right?

I hope this helped clear things up

2 requires both #131 and #77 and is not possible without it.

512px region_size -> 512m

Yes

But if it would be 1., then that's the same.

Ok, thank you.
