| Jun 4, 2021 at 10:04 | comment | added | lukad | @DMGregory can you expand on that? I want to generate mesh distance fields for my meshes that I am generating at runtime. I'm generating those meshes from voxel data so I think it should be possible and not too expensive to do at runtime. My question is how exactly can it be done? Should I create a separate question? This one was obviously abandoned by JronFrt. | |

You can leverage something similar: the operations you use to build up your procedural buildings might have associated structural information you can use to compute a distance field faster than treating the end result as a raw mesh/polygon soup. Try editing your question to walk us through the tools the player uses to create buildings, and we might be able to help you find those opportunities. | |
