Documentation


There are 7 kinds of borders included in this asset:

  • Mesh Border

Vertical rectangular or circular border. Can be used as a map boundary or as fake fog to hide objects outside the map.

  • Decal Border

Rectangular or round border that projects onto all surfaces. Useful if you want the border to follow all surface irregularities.

  • Spline Border

Vertical border constructed using spline points. Useful if you want the border to be irregular in shape. Can be closed.

  • Spline Decal Border

Border that’s constructed via spline points. Is projected onto all surfaces. Useful if you want an irregularly shaped border that follows all surface irregularities. Can be closed.

  • Sphere Border

Simple border in the form of a sphere or a dome. Can be used as a map boundary or as fake fog to hide objects outside the map.

  • Blocking Border 

Vertical rectangular or circular border with collision. Useful for restricting the camera movement or other actors within the map or area.

  • Blocking Spline Border

Borders with collision, constructed via spline points with an option to be closed. Useful for quickly creating invisible walls, or for restricting an area of irregular shape.

Technical Details

Features:

  • Entirely built in blueprints
  • Each border blueprint has a function that checks if a point with (X,Y) coordinates falls inside the given area, and corner rounding is taken into account when checking that. For spline borders it works for both the convex and concave polygonal areas.
  • All borders, except for spline-based ones, can be rounded
  • Ability to edit main Mesh and Decal border parameters at runtime
  • Ability to use your own materials for borders
  • Materials with fake fog effects to hide objects outside the map boundaries, without using post-processing. Works well with other translucent materials.
  • Overview level with use examples
  • Lots of material customization options
  • 128 premade example materials for the borders


Contains: 

  • 7 Main Blueprints
  • 10 Master Materials
  • 72 Pattern Material instance examples
  • 56 Fake Fog Material instance examples
