squidpony.squidmath.WhirlingNoise

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Noise.Noise2D, Noise.Noise3D, Noise.Noise4D, Noise.Noise6D

public class WhirlingNoise
extends SeededNoise
implements Noise.Noise2D, Noise.Noise3D, Noise.Noise4D, Noise.Noise6D, Serializable

A Noise class that's here for compatibility; it extends SeededNoise and delegates to it for all methods except noiseAlt(double, double) and noiseAlt(double, double, double). Normally you should use SeededNoise directly for new code if you expect to mostly use the inner classes in Noise for special effects, or FastNoise if you want the effects all in one place or to use float instead of double.
Created by Tommy Ettinger on 12/14/2016. The technique for point hashing in the "noiseAlt" code is based closely on this paper, with credit to Andrew Kensler, Aaron Knoll and Peter Shirley. This technique is good, but it may be periodic in undesirable ways, and isn't much faster when implemented in Java than IntPointHash, if at all.

Field Details

instance

public static final WhirlingNoise instance

grad3f

protected static final float[][] grad3f

The 32 3D vertices of a rhombic triacontahedron. These were modified from values taken from Vladimir Bulatov's stellation applet, which has available source but is unlicensed, and is available here, but the vertices are mathematical constants so copyright isn't an issue.

public static final int[] perm_x

perm_y

public static final int[] perm_y

perm_z

public static final int[] perm_z

noiseAlt

public static float noiseAlt(double x, double y, double z)

3D simplex noise returning a float; extremely similar to noise(double, double, double), but this may be slightly faster or slightly slower. This uses its parameters verbatim, so you should apply frequency changes yourself. This also cannot take a seed, while noise(double, double, double, long) can.
