Sky Keyframer

class simul::sky::SkyKeyframer : public simul::sky::BaseKeyframer, public simul::sky::BaseSkyInterface

A class that maintains sky properties and interpolates them based on keyframe values.

An instance of the SkyKeyframer is kept as a member of the Environment instance. The SkyKeyframer interpolates the sky values, and passes the keyframe and interpolation data to external renderers, e.g. BaseSkyRenderer and BaseAtmosphericsRenderer. The generated tables are calculated for multiple altitudes - specified with SetNumAltitudes. The SunIrradiance value determines the colour and strength of sunlight, and is expressed in physical units. The apparent size of the sun is set using SetSunRadiusArcMinutes.
