Select a real world sounding to use as forcing in the simulation
Choose a resolution - Higher resolutions provide more detail but significantly impact performance
| Horizontal resolution | Cellheight: 40m Sim width: 40 km | |
| Very high horizontal resolutions (12000–16000, e.g. 12000×200) run at full auto-iter when the GPU has headroom. Widths of 16000+ start slowly then speed up. Above 16000 also needs a GPU max texture size of at least that width. | ||
| Vertical resolution | Vertical resolution of 300 is recommended for best results (up to 1000 supported). | |
| Simulation height | Sim heights other than 12000 m are not optimized and may be buggy! | |
Optional starting presets for new sims (from your reference save). Both can be on at once.
Multiplayer is still work-in-progress — it may be laggy, glitchy, and at times unplayable.
Host runs the simulation. Peers paint and place tools in real time.
