1. A system for rendering virtual terrain, comprising:
an Internet-connected server; and software executing on the server from a non-transitory physical medium, the software providing: a first function for building a basic terrain from geometric blocks; a second function for analyzing surrounding terrain properties; a third function for adding or subtracting blocks from the terrain by at least analyzing the surrounding terrain and selecting blocks to add by appropriate shape and orientation for placement; and a fourth function for smoothing the final terrain surfaces. |
