3D node that will allow the player to dig

0 votes

I'm thinking about making a game that allows the player to dig in a spherical planet. Unfortunately I have little to no experience in voxels or mesh generation by code. Is there a Godot node that would make it easier to program digging. Would CSG meshes work?

thanks for the help :)

My knowledge on this is pretty slim, but I would think that a CSG mesh is the easiest solution. You can set the planet as the main csg mesh, and "dig" by placing a csg mesh which subtracts from the planet mesh.

thanks for your comment. :D I'll try it. I'm pretty sure CSG meshes collide with rigid bodies, but if they don't it won't work. I guess I'll see. :)
