Dynamic Ocean Map

Thanks for the reply @Leberecht Reinhold!
If you're open to a little consultancy, I'd appreciate it, and I'll message you through Discord later today when I get a chance so you can school me on this.
I've download BlackSeas and I'll poke around and play with it to try to understand what you did in there too!
And it's true what what others have said, this is the best water shader on the workshop for the sea because of dynamic looking nature, ability to change the variables, and the way it interacts with other objects. So good job!

@DNXyken Glad you like it!
Yes, you can import it, but it's a bit hard due to some TTS limitations. You will not be able to do through a saved obj, due to tbeing set to interactable=false. You also need to reset parameters on onload to what you want, because they are literally parameters given in the GPU, as far as CPU/TTS knows, its otherwise a flat plane.

IMHO the best way is to copy this, but instead of doing it on onload, rename it to "initialize_sea". Then call it through a button or whenever you want the sea to appear. Feel free to add me on discord if you need help with this!

And yeah, color and settings can be changed by setting. Get my black seas mod, there are several sea settings there!

First off, this is absolutely amazing! Awesome job.
Second, I wanted to ask if there was a way to import the water_outer_obj into my groups home table while maintaining script functionality?
If I don't copy the entire script from your map into my table's general script, whenever I try to adjust the wave variables, it errors and says "attempt to call a nil value."
I wouldn't mind incorporating this mod's script into my table's, but the onLoad commands include a spawn command for both water assets, which would be annoying to delete every time we boot it up and don't need it.
Is there a way to make the script self contained in the object?
Also, while playing with it, a thought occurred to me:
Could the variables like wave height, speed, the color presets like SEA_COLOR, all be adjusted by creating buttons on a separate panel?
I'm deep diving into TTS, and starting to get my feet wet in understanding LUA, but the way this mod functions eludes me.

@Cacko_AzSa135 You can change them in the code

Hi, congrats for your mod! But I have a question, how do I change the wave speed and size?

I really like this, especially how it looks like waves are crashing on the shore.

Nice, and thank you!

@Old School Oni Mod update with that issue fixed.
I would also like to mention that you can write in the chat /execute set_ocean_color({R=60, G=0, B=10}) to change the ocean color.

Thanks Leberecht! I didn't catch the update and wondered why it was "suddenly" throwing errors. Thought I had messed it up (I ihad ncorporated it in a Pirate figure combat themed mod). Then I realized the original was throwing the same error. Thanks for demystifying it for me.

@Old School Oni That's normal, this mod was before TTS allowed access to the materials "normally", and used a trick to modify the shader values. Now with the last update they added a official way to do it (getting the renderer component then materials), the old way doesnt work anymore. Gotta update the mod, I will try to do it next week.

@GMT_Gina Yes of course, you can place coastlines or islands. See my Black Seas mod to get some terrain that uses "trick" textures that blender together regardless of scale and position.
