[Question] In regards to the new view distances...

How did the devs create the longer view distances in 0.7? I'm currently creating a map, and I'm wondering if there's a line of code or something that I have to add.

Or will this be revealed after 0.7 is available?

Snake Doctor, if youre still reading up on this thread, ive been fiddling with my map for some time and I dont know what the best values (the three numbers) for view distance/fog are. What do you suggest? Im confused as to what each one does... I want little to no foggyness...

Thanks in advance,
Okita

1,000 is the highest it will let you go in the editor. Outside the editor, maybe.
