Are there any Gaia GameObjects that should not be renamed for code purposes? I thought of this because I would like to rename the Gaia Runtime to just Runtime and keep other objects within there that are relevant, but if there is a list anywhere of what I should not rename I would love to find that so I can avoid breaking things.

I don't know the answer, but I assume (hopefully correctly) that the Gaia setup sets up the layers for the gameobjects to be on and to set the references in the components as needed. If that is the case, then you can freely change the names.

I would not recommend to change the name of any of the Gaia objects - there are lookups for those objects in there that look for the name of the object. If you do not change anything in your scene anymore it might be fine to rename stuff, but e.g. if you keep changing the runtime setup I would expect that to break if the Gaia Runtime object is renamed.

Looks like I was wrong then, please disregard my message...

      I'm getting tired of doing islands and craters

      Yes, that's sort of what I'm doing now, but its not the look I want. I want my player to be able to stand near the edge of the playable map and look down off the mountain at a far distant horizon. Or even stand on a mountain in the middle of the map without seeing the edge of the terrain. I don't know how best to blend the terrain into the skybox.

      So what you could do, is either make the invisible boarders withing the single terrain, so the player never gets to the edge or you could add terrains to your existing focus terrain and turn them into mountains so it looks like the world continues even tho the player cannot seem to get passed the boarders of your focus terrain

      Problems with latest Gaia Update

      Hi Laurel, For me, I did not delete any folders, I did go into the code and edit it slightly, I haven't had issues since: I'm not sure if I have the authority to post the refactored code, but I can say, there is an if statement that can be removed which has fixed the issue in my project

      Adding shoreline or waterline effects, beaches, river banks, etc.

      I tried to get something like this with terrace and a height filter, but didn't really have time to do it properly.

      Just upgraded my Canopy to Pro

      Ok, I'm a little bemused and confused... Has anyone here heard about anyone saying that PW won't take their money? I did the upgrade I was talking about above. I have the pro subscription, according to everything here. The dates are all wrong, but the subscription is there. I've downloaded everything I might need (including Gaia's new version, and wasn't it a joy not to deal with the asset store downloads for that!). But it never showed up on my debit card, and it never showed up on the payments tab either. And I sprung for a full year. Is it possible that Canopy is not being ghosted? Is it possible the problem (or part of it; there are always *some* rectoids) is really with Invision not working properly with subscription upgrades or even maybe renewals? One of my other side gigs is maintaining a handful of Wordpress sites, so I know firsthand that even something as simple as a Paypal link can fall apart on a whim. It's easy to grab what's available and run. It's really only slightly harder to think for a minute about what's better in the long run. Keeping Canopy around is clearly better for me in the long run. I don't want to build my own biomes; I don't want to make my own stamps. I don't ever want to make a three-level recursive nested spawner again. If these people can't make money with Canopy, then Canopy is going to go away. And my workload with Gaia and Gena is going to go from trivial to... moderate. I'll probably have more fun, but it'll be longer before I can ditch my day job - which again, is more important to me in the long run. Or it was just a glitch and I'm overreacting. But for now I'm afraid to try to put it through again. So, back to the original question: is it just me or has this happened to other people as well?
