@mfraz74 that’s very true; the current slicing does a lot to degrade this style of model
I've published my OpenSCAD module to generate randomized, chunky, game-like terrain. It's called "Zarchscape". Available at https://jmtd.net/3dprinting/ (CC BY-SA 4.0). #3dprinting

@cybervegan I’ve never tried CAD Query. I’ll have to give it a look! My background is in functional programs and two niche tools in the 2D space: https://jmtd.net/wadc and https://jmtd.net/doom/liquorice
I’ve been writing a blog post which is quite critical of aspects of openscad’s design but I’m starting to think I can’t be arsed to finish it and might redraft just to show off the model I designed instead #3dprinting
I wonder how this will work! A bit of an experiment #3dprinting

In the former case, by the way, the cause was non-planar polygons. The preview function auto-tessellated them with triangles but the render did not. (And didn’t throw a coherent error either, I figured this out by guesswork)
OpenSCAD’s “preview” and “render” functions have such separate code paths that I’ve had a little project preview fine but fail to render; and now it renders fine but fails to preview.
Today was eventful for a number of reasons but my favourite was fixing a bug by adding a single newline character

New blog post: Bea's 3D printer https://jmtd.net/log/bea_printer/ #3dprinting
@stefan she's actually a little disappointed that her printer won't print!
By youngest requested that I 3d-print her a 3d printer #3dprinting

@csepp looks really interesting! Wish it had an atom feed
@stevelord you probably know this already, but, your blog rss (sub stack?) has gone weird (I think, or my reader has gone wrong). Shows “this is Jen’s sub stack”
