What is a 3D World?

The 3D World is a visual representation in three dimensions of (a part of) the real world or a virtual area.

What is the function of the 3D World in the Tygron Engine?

When playing a game in the Tygron Engine, a three dimensional (3D) visualization of the game area is rendered. In this 3D world the players can together navigate and perform their stakeholders' actions. The effects of their actions are also instantly visualized, delivering direct visual feedback. When for example a stakeholder's action negatively affects water storage in the game area, floods will occur and be displayed during heavy rain fall.

Elements of the 3D world

The 3D world consists of certain elements. These elements will be shortly explained below, however, for more details, please follow the links for the specific pages of these elements.

Constructions

Constructions are all the objects that can be build/ placed in the 3D world. They are split in three main groups: standard buildings, landmarks and roads:
  • Standard buildings:
These constructions are divided in sub groups, such as offices, housing, industry, agriculture, etc.
  • Landmarks:
To improve player immersion and recognition, some objects are moddelled from real life landmarks. Examples are renowned constructions such as huge Dutch Delta works, university faculty buildings in Delft, the freedom towers in New York and other large spatial objects.
  • Roads:
This group contains all different types of road surfaces, from African dirt roads to high tech Vietnamese Rapid Transit train tracks.

For more detail, please see Constructions.

Zoning

The 3D world can be divided in different zones. Each zone can have it's dedicated zoning plan, describing which types of constructions are allowed. The municipality usually has the task to approve building permits according to what is allowed in the zoning plans.
For more detail, please see Zoning.
