Use it

Code for the specimen as it is set up above; it follows your knobs.

JavaScript
import { createAsset } from 'https://gaitkit.com/cdn/waterfall.mjs';

const waterfall = createAsset();
scene.add(waterfall);                      // rests on y = 0, front faces +Z

Knobs

KnobTypeValuesDefaultWhat it does
heightrange4 to 12, step 48Drop in metres: 4, 8 or 12 (one to three 4 m levels), the same steps as cliff-tile.
biomechoicegrass desert snow rock volcanic aliengrassShared by every Terrain piece: grass, desert (sandstone, teal water), snow (icy blue water, snowy ledges), rock, volcanic (a glowing lavafall), alien (glowing teal falls).
flowrange0.5 to 1.4, step 0.11How much water goes over: 0.5 is a few thin threads, 1.4 a full curtain across the notch.
spraytoggleon / offtrueFoam and mist puffs where the water hits the pool (they bob in a loop).
seedrange1 to 50, step 16Changes the crags in the face, the ribbons and the decor. Edges match for every seed.
