:Type: boolean

:Range: True/False

:Default: False

Controls whether the engine will use paging and LOD algorithms to load the terrain of the entire world at all times.
|
|
Otherwise, only the terrain of the surrounding cells is loaded.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
When enabling distant terrain, make sure the 'viewing distance' in the camera section is set to a larger value so
|
|
that you can actually see the additional terrain.
|
|
|
|
To avoid frame drops as the player moves around, nearby terrain pages are always preloaded in the background,
|
|
regardless of the preloading settings in the 'Cells' section,
|
|
but the preloading of terrain behind a door or a travel destination, for example,
|
|
will still be controlled by cell preloading settings.
|
|
|
|
The distant terrain engine is currently considered experimental
|
|
and may receive updates and/or further configuration options in the future.
|
|
The glaring omission of non-terrain objects in the distance somewhat limits this setting's usefulness.
