Scripting

Like Combat Zone, Voxel Pyramid exposes its generator and plan so you can build gameplay on the generated tomb.

Accessing the generator

var gen = env.world.GetGenerator<PyramidMazeGenerator>();

Regenerating

gen.Regenerate(newSeed);   // reloads the world with a new monument and maze

Reading the plan

gen.CurrentPlan returns the PyramidMazePlan, which carries the monument geometry as data:

Member	What it gives you
frustum	Centre, base half-width, height, base and apex world Y, sampled ground datum, tier count and wall thickness.
entrance	Door centre, entry floor, south-face Z, opening size and how far the hall reaches inward.
basePosition	World voxel position of the base centre.

Placing the pyramid in your own world

Set Base Position (in the inspector or on the plan) to drop the pyramid anywhere in an existing world. Because a detail generator only writes the chunks it intersects, you can add the Pyramid Maze Generator to a world that already has other generators (for example beyond a river in a city) and their footprints will not conflict.

Remember the world height rule: keep the terrain minimum height at or below the pyramid base, or the buried walls will leak to the sky. See How Generation Works.
