Game.Rendering.Debug.LodParametersSetter

Assembly:
Assembly-CSharp (game runtime assembly that contains game code and most mod-facing types)

Namespace:
Game.Rendering.Debug

Type:
public class LodParametersSetter : UnityEngine.MonoBehaviour

Base:
UnityEngine.MonoBehaviour

Summary:
Component that overrides a global shader vector used by the game's rendering shaders to control LOD-related parameters. Each frame this component writes the public Vector4 m_LODParameter into the global shader property identified by RenderPrefabRenderer.ShaderIDs._LodParameters. Intended for debugging or temporarily forcing custom LOD behavior at runtime (for example to change LOD distances or bias).

---

Fields

• public UnityEngine.Vector4 m_LODParameter
  Public vector exposed to the Inspector. Its components are used by shaders that read the global _LodParameters vector (the meaning of each component depends on the shader implementation; by default this script initializes it to (100000f, 1f, 0f, 0f) in the source). Modify this value to change LOD behavior globally.

Properties

• None

Constructors

• public LodParametersSetter()
  MonoBehaviour types typically rely on Unity lifecycle methods rather than explicit constructors. This class does not define a custom constructor — use Awake/Start or set fields in the Inspector.

Methods

• public void Update()
  Called every frame by Unity. This method calls: Shader.SetGlobalVector(RenderPrefabRenderer.ShaderIDs._LodParameters, m_LODParameter); which writes the current m_LODParameter value into the global shader state so that all shaders accessing _LodParameters will use the provided vector.

Notes: - Because Update runs each frame, consider updating the global vector only when the value actually changes if you need to avoid unnecessary per-frame work. - Shader.SetGlobalVector must be called from the main thread (Unity thread). - The exact interpretation of the vector components (x, y, z, w) is determined by the shaders that read _LodParameters (see RenderPrefabRenderer.ShaderIDs and relevant shader source for details).

Usage Example

// Create a GameObject and attach the setter at runtime:
using UnityEngine;

public class LodSetterExample : MonoBehaviour
{
    void Start()
    {
        var go = new GameObject("LOD Override");
        var setter = go.AddComponent<Game.Rendering.Debug.LodParametersSetter>();
        // Set custom LOD parameters (example values)
        setter.m_LODParameter = new Vector4(500f, 1f, 0f, 0f);
        // Leave the GameObject in the scene to apply the override each frame.
    }
}

Additional tips: - For temporary debugging, attach the component to an always-active GameObject (e.g., a persistent debugger object). - To minimize overhead in production, remove or disable this component once testing is complete.
