LLRAW fidelity
While tinkering with LLRAW export code, I decided to plot a graph of the values one can fit into Linden Lab's 13 channel RAW terrain format.
- y-axis is the altitude of a point on the terrain
- first non-zero value is 0.0078125
- excluding non-zero values, the number of unique values is 17577 (non-zero sans uniqueness would be 255x255)
- unless a green value of 255 is hardcoded to a divisor of 2, the highest value is 508.0078125 <math>255/(255/128)</math>
