Unity Terrain

Before calling any skill in this module: if you are about to call a skill with parameters guessed from its name or description, STOP — read this file (or fetch its schema via GET /skills/recommend?includeSchema=true) first. If you already have the parameter definitions from recommend/schema, you may proceed straight to dryRun.

Triggers

• Creating or editing terrain
• Sculpting or smoothing heightmap
• Painting terrain texture layers
• 创建或编辑地形、雕刻或平滑高度图、绘制地形纹理层

Unity Terrain Skills

Guardrails

Operating Mode (v1.9 three-tier):

• Approval (default): query skills (terrain_get_info, terrain_get_height) run directly. Create/modify skills (terrain_create, terrain_set_height, terrain_set_heights_batch, terrain_add_hill, terrain_generate_perlin, terrain_smooth, terrain_flatten, terrain_paint_texture) are FullAuto — on MODE_RESTRICTED, run the grant protocol; /permission/grant executes the skill server-side and returns the result.
• Auto / Bypass: SemiAuto and FullAuto run directly.
• This module contains no Delete / PlayMode / Reload / RiskLevel="high" skills — nothing auto-classifies as forbidden. To remove a terrain delete the asset via asset_delete (subject to its own forbidden rules).

Note: All sculpt/paint operations require an existing Terrain in the scene, or use terrain_create to generate one.

DO NOT (common hallucinations):

• terrain_set_texture does not exist → use terrain_paint_texture with layer index and brush parameters
• terrain_add_tree / terrain_add_grass do not exist → these require Unity Terrain tools or custom scripts
• terrain_set_size does not exist → terrain dimensions are set at creation via terrain_create
• terrain_import_heightmap / terrain_set_heights do not exist → use terrain_set_heights_batch with a 2D heights array ([z][x] values 0-1)

Routing:

• For terrain material → use material module on terrain's material
• For objects on terrain → use gameobject module to create/place objects

Skills Overview

Example Usage

pythonCopy code
import unity_skills

# === Method 1: Quick terrain with Perlin noise (RECOMMENDED) ===
# Create terrain
result = unity_skills.call_skill("terrain_create",
    name="MyTerrain", width=200, length=200, height=50)

# Generate natural terrain with Perlin noise
unity_skills.call_skill("terrain_generate_perlin",
    scale=20.0,           # Larger scale = bigger features
    heightMultiplier=0.4, # Height intensity
    octaves=5,            # More octaves = more detail
    persistence=0.5,
    lacunarity=2.0)

# === Method 2: Add individual smooth hills ===
# Create flat terrain
result = unity_skills.call_skill("terrain_create",
    name="HillyTerrain", width=200, length=200, height=50)

# Add multiple smooth hills
import random
for i in range(8):
    unity_skills.call_skill("terrain_add_hill",
        normalizedX=random.uniform(0.2, 0.8),
        normalizedZ=random.uniform(0.2, 0.8),
        radius=random.uniform(0.15, 0.3),
        height=random.uniform(0.3, 0.6),
        smoothness=1.5)  # Higher = smoother

# Smooth the entire terrain for natural transitions
unity_skills.call_skill("terrain_smooth",
    normalizedX=0.5, normalizedZ=0.5,
    radius=0.5, iterations=2)

# === Method 3: Create specific features ===
# Create a mountain
unity_skills.call_skill("terrain_add_hill",
    normalizedX=0.5, normalizedZ=0.5,
    radius=0.25, height=0.8, smoothness=2.0)

# Create a flat plateau on top
unity_skills.call_skill("terrain_flatten",
    normalizedX=0.5, normalizedZ=0.5,
    targetHeight=0.8, radius=0.1, strength=1.0)

# === Method 4: Manual height control (advanced) ===
import math
heights = []
for z in range(64):
    row = []
    for x in range(64):
        # Distance from center
        dx = (x - 32) / 32
        dz = (z - 32) / 32
        dist = math.sqrt(dx*dx + dz*dz)
        # Smooth hill with cosine falloff
        h = max(0, 0.5 * math.cos(dist * math.pi / 2)) if dist < 1 else 0
        row.append(h)
    heights.append(row)

unity_skills.call_skill("terrain_set_heights_batch",
    startX=100, startZ=100, heights=heights)

# Query height at world position
info = unity_skills.call_skill("terrain_get_height", worldX=100, worldZ=100)
print(f"Height at position: {info['height']}")

Workflow Integration

All terrain operations support workflow undo/redo:

pythonCopy code
# Start workflow session
unity_skills.call_skill("workflow_session_start", tag="Create Terrain")

# Create and modify terrain
unity_skills.call_skill("terrain_create", name="TestTerrain")
unity_skills.call_skill("terrain_generate_perlin", scale=20, heightMultiplier=0.5)
unity_skills.call_skill("terrain_add_hill", normalizedX=0.3, normalizedZ=0.3, radius=0.2)

# End session
unity_skills.call_skill("workflow_session_end")

# Later: Undo entire terrain creation
sessions = unity_skills.call_skill("workflow_session_list")
unity_skills.call_skill("workflow_session_undo", sessionId=sessions['sessions'][0]['sessionId'])
