Skyboxes are image sets for the cube that composes the background in 3D viewports. Each image set is a subdirectory of the resources/skybox directory.
To add a new skybox, create a new directory and add six square images, one for each side of the cube:
- right.png
- left.png
- top.png
- bottom.png
- front.png
- back.png
For example, this is the top image of the simulation skybox image set:
And this is what that skybox looks like in game, as used in the tutorial scenarios:
The default skybox uses the default directory. To change the skybox using the Lua API, for instance during a scripted scenario, pass the skybox image set's directory name as the parameter of the setDefaultSkybox() function:
