General resource page for why tunnels are a no go, technical limitations etc


Discussions on the forum, my own personal desire to see more things and a need to get it out of my head into some form of editable page.

no single large change will make this happen. The task needs to be separated into portions related to the limitations of the current engine design and tacled tiny bit by tiny bit to remove those limitations without causing performance degradation, and breaking compatibility.
Here's a thread which discusses exactly this:

If any change would introduce a performance penalty, then an ability to have it turned off, or tuned to mitigate the loss.
 
goals would be to create fully abstract 3d world
Challenges would be
* Pathfinding
* visibility(semi transparent undergrounds)
* world destruction/creation
* portals
* water
* arbitrary gravity
 
As you can see such a change would require so much work as to be prohibitive, but for arguments sake, what would be some smaller changes that may help.


* decoupling water height from zero
and another:
* new pathfinding that can handle tunnels and some method to generate the grids.
