[Tutorial] Procedural meshes and voxel terrain C#

I just read through the first part of this tutorial and just wanted to say thanks. Its been a great read so far. The set up is super easy to follow and each part so far has been broken down really well.

 

I made 7 Days to Die like physics on this tutorial.

To make them work you must add this function to chunk script:

Code (CSharp):

1. bool checkNeighbors (int x,int y, int z, int last, int steps) {
2.         if (Block (x, y-1, z) != 0) {
3.             return true;
4.         }
5.         if (steps > 10) {
6.             return false;
7.         }
8.         steps++;
9.         if(Block(x+1,y,z)!=0 && last !=1){
10.             if (checkNeighbors(x+1,y,z, 0, steps)) {
11.                 return true;
12.             }  
13.         }
14.        
15.         if(Block(x-1,y,z)!=0&&last!=0){
16.             if (checkNeighbors(x-1,y,z, 1, steps)) {
17.                 return true;
18.             }
19.         }
20.        
21.         if(Block(x,y,z+1)!=0&&last!=3){
22.             if (checkNeighbors(x,y,z+1, 2, steps)) {
23.                 return true;
24.             }
25.         }
26.        
27.         if(Block(x,y,z-1)!=0&&last!=2){
28.             if (checkNeighbors(x,y,z-1,3,steps)) {
29.                 return true;
30.             }
31.         }
32.         return false;
33.     }

And in generate mesh function you must replace:

Code (CSharp):

1. if(world.Block(x,y-1,z)==0){
2.        //Block below is air
3.        CubeBot(x,y,z,world.Block(x,y,z));
4.        
5.       }

with:

Code (CSharp):

1. if(Block(x,y-1,z)==0){
2.                             //Block below is air
3.                             CubeBot(x,y,z,Block(x,y,z));
4.                             if (Block(x,y,z)!=3 || !checkNeighbors(x,y,z, 5, 0)) {
5.                                 world.data[x+chunkX,y+chunkY-1,z+chunkZ]=Block(x,y,z);
6.                                 world.data[x+chunkX,y+chunkY,z+chunkZ]=0;
7.                                 update=true;
8.                             }
9.                         }

I hope it helps someone.
If you have any ideas for code optymalization post it here.

 

I want to save and load these terrain(mesh) data. Is it possible?

 

Coooooool!

 

Can somebody help me? I can't open the pages!
