Maybe too much grass between paver stones. Too regular.

Indeed... keep us updated, Thomas!

Yes, well, until now, that has not been an issue yet.

Yes, I can imagine that. As long as tourists stay away from Gancaloon
the stones will remain bare or plastered (subject to erosion. That has
still to be done.

Yes, but - like others have said - there is still some work to do.

Flag? it is the sail of an incoming ship ;-)
The grass still needs work. There is a random height control already
present but it probably needs to be made larger. And other things too.

Thank you indeed!

Absolutely. It was not yet implemented here because I have some problems
to get the patchiness right as I want it, but it should be there next
time, with thanks to Kirk Andrews who wrote the code in the first place.
> Indeed... keep us updated, Thomas!
I will. Once started, each scene gets a momentum of its own and I need
to take advantage of it before it begins to slow down.

<grin> Interesting isn't? how the perception of an attitude can change
meaning by addition or deletion of extra elements. At first the figure
looked to be pondering something, now he is talking to somebody else,
while his body language has not changed.

The regularity is being worked on indeed.

Yes.. to me, at first it seemed to be pondering about purchasing the
ship, now it seems to be thinking "I know this guy, but I can't remember
his name...". ;)

Looking better and better.
There is a place called Sudak in Ukraine. It has a Genoese fortress on
a headland to one side of a bay where a small town and harbour are under
its protection / control.
Very similar to your location and style.
Keep it up!

I googled the place and indeed it is. Fascinating those /close encounters/.

I will! I will!

I seem to have seen this before.
1) What is causing these /nice/ rows? becoming visible when I increase
the number of plants? They were already present in the original image
but less conspicuous.
2) And why do they not correspond to the eval_pigment function selection
(black corresponding to the inter-stone area)?
3) No difference with noise_generator 2 or 3.
