// stb_voxel_render.h - v0.85 - Sean Barrett, 2015 - public domain
//
// This library helps render large-scale "voxel" worlds for games,
// in this case, one with blocks that can have textures and that
// can also be a few shapes other than cubes.
//
//    Video introduction:
//       http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2vnTtiLrV1w
//
//    Minecraft-viewer sample app (not very simple though):
//       http://github.com/nothings/stb/tree/master/tests/caveview
//
// It works by creating triangle meshes. The library includes
//
//    - converter from dense 3D arrays of block info to vertex mesh
//    - vertex & fragment shaders for the vertex mesh
//    - assistance in setting up shader state
//
// For portability, none of the library code actually accesses
// the 3D graphics API. (At the moment, it's not actually portable
// since the shaders are GLSL only, but patches are welcome.)
//
// You have to do all the caching and tracking of vertex buffers
// yourself. However, you could also try making a game with
// a small enough world that it's fully loaded rather than
// streaming. Currently the preferred vertex format is 20 bytes
// per quad. There are designs to allow much more compact formats
// with a slight reduction in shader features, but no roadmap
// for actually implementing them.
//
//
// USAGE
//
//   #define the symbol STB_VOXEL_RENDER_IMPLEMENTATION in *one*
//   C/C++ file before the #include of this file; the implementation
//   will be generated in that file.
//
//   If you define the symbols STB_VOXEL_RENDER_STATIC, then the
//   implementation will be private to that file.
//
//
// FEATURES
//
//   - you can choose textured blocks with the features below,
//     or colored voxels with 2^24 colors and no textures.
//
//   - voxels are mostly just cubes, but there's support for
//     half-height cubes and diagonal slopes, half-height
//     diagonals, and even odder shapes especially for doing
//     more-continuous "ground".
//
//   - texture coordinates are projections along one of the major
//     axes, with the per-texture scaling.
//
//   - a number of aspects of the shader and the vertex format
//     are configurable; the library generally takes care of
//     coordinating the vertex format with the mesh for you.
//
//
// FEATURES (SHADER PERSPECTIVE)
//
//   - vertices aligned on integer lattice, z on multiples of 0.5
//   - per-vertex "lighting" or "ambient occlusion" value (6 bits)
//   - per-vertex texture crossfade (3 bits)
//
//   - per-face texture #1 id (8-bit index into array texture)
//   - per-face texture #2 id (8-bit index into second array texture)
//   - per-face color (6-bit palette index, 2 bits of per-texture boolean enable)
//   - per-face 5-bit normal for lighting calculations & texture coord computation
//   - per-face 2-bit texture matrix rotation to rotate faces
//
//   - indexed-by-texture-id scale factor (separate for texture #1 and texture #2)
//   - indexed-by-texture-#2-id blend mode (alpha composite or modulate/multiply);
//     the first is good for decals, the second for detail textures, "light maps",
//     etc; both modes are controlled by texture #2's alpha, scaled by the
//     per-vertex texture crossfade and the per-face color (if enabled on texture #2);
//     modulate/multiply multiplies by an extra factor of 2.0 so that if you
//     make detail maps whose average brightness is 0.5 everything works nicely.
//
//   - ambient lighting: half-lambert directional plus constant, all scaled by vertex ao
//   - face can be fullbright (emissive), controlled by per-face color
//   - installable lighting, with default single-point-light
//   - installable fog, with default hacked smoothstep
//
//  Note that all the variations of lighting selection and texture
//  blending are run-time conditions in the shader, so they can be
//  intermixed in a single mesh.
//
//
// INTEGRATION ARC
//
//   The way to get this library to work from scratch is to do the following:
//
//      Step 1. define STBVOX_CONFIG_MODE to 0
//
//        This mode uses only vertex attributes and uniforms, and is easiest
//        to get working. It requires 32 bytes per quad and limits the
//        size of some tables to avoid hitting uniform limits.
//
//      Step 2. define STBVOX_CONFIG_MODE to 1
//
//        This requires using a texture buffer to store the quad data,
//        reducing the size to 20 bytes per quad.
//
//      Step 3: define STBVOX_CONFIG_PREFER_TEXBUFFER
//
//        This causes some uniforms to be stored as texture buffers
//        instead. This increases the size of some of those tables,
//        and avoids a potential slow path (gathering non-uniform
//        data from uniforms) on some hardware.
//
//   In the future I might add additional modes that have significantly
//   smaller meshes but reduce features, down as small as 6 bytes per quad.
//   See elsewhere in this file for a table of candidate modes. Switching
//   to a mode will require changing some of your mesh creation code, but
//   everything else should be seamless. (And I'd like to change the API
//   so that mesh creation is data-driven the way the uniforms are, and
//   then you wouldn't even have to change anything but the mode number.)
//
//
// IMPROVEMENTS FOR SHIP-WORTHY PROGRAMS USING THIS LIBRARY
//
//   I currently tolerate a certain level of "bugginess" in this library.
//
//   I'm referring to things which look a little wrong (as long as they
//   don't cause holes or cracks in the output meshes), or things which
//   do not produce as optimal a mesh as possible. Notable examples:
//
//        -  incorrect lighting on slopes
//        -  inefficient meshes for vheight blocks
//
//   I am willing to do the work to improve these things if someone is
//   going to ship a substantial program that would be improved by them.
//   (It need not be commercial, nor need it be a game.) I just didn't
//   want to do the work up front if it might never be leveraged. So just
//   submit a bug report as usual (github is preferred), but add a note
//   that this is for a thing that is really going to ship. (That means
//   you need to be far enough into the project that it's clear you're
//   committed to it; not during early exploratory development.)
//
//
// VOXEL MESH API
//
//   Context
//
//     To understand the API, make sure you first understand the feature set
//     listed above.
//
//     Because the vertices are compact, they have very limited spatial
//     precision. Thus a single mesh can only contain the data for a limited
//     area. To make very large voxel maps, you'll need to build multiple
//     vertex buffers. (But you want this anyway for frustum culling.)
//
//     Each generated mesh has three components:
//             - vertex data (vertex buffer)
//             - face data (optional, stored in texture buffer)
//             - mesh transform (uniforms)
//
//     Once you've generated the mesh with this library, it's up to you
//     to upload it to the GPU, to keep track of the state, and to render
//     it.
//
//   Concept
//
//     The basic design is that you pass in one or more 3D arrays; each array
//     is (typically) one-byte-per-voxel and contains information about one
//     or more properties of some particular voxel property.
//
//     Because there is so much per-vertex and per-face data possible
//     in the output, and each voxel can have 6 faces and 8 vertices, it
//     would require an very large data structure to describe all
//     of the possibilities, and this would cause the mesh-creation
//     process to be slow. Instead, the API provides multiple ways
//     to express each property, some more compact, others less so;
//     each such way has some limitations on what it can express.
//
//     Note that there are so many paths and combinations, not all of them
//     have been tested. Just report bugs and I'll fix 'em.
//
//   Details

//
// CONFIGURATION MACROS
//
//  #define STBVOX_CONFIG_MODE <integer>           // REQUIRED
//     Configures the overall behavior of stb_voxel_render. This
//     can affect the shaders, the uniform info, and other things.
//     (If you need more than one mode in the same app, you can
//     use STB_VOXEL_RENDER_STATIC to create multiple versions
//     in separate files, and then wrap them.)
//
//         Mode value       Meaning
//             0               Textured blocks, 32-byte quads
//             1               Textured blocks, 20-byte quads
//            20               Untextured blocks, 32-byte quads
//            21               Untextured blocks, 20-byte quads
//
//
//  #define STBVOX_CONFIG_PRECISION_Z  <integer>   // OPTIONAL
//     Defines the number of bits of fractional position for Z.
//     Only 0 or 1 are valid. 1 is the default. If 0, then a
//     single mesh has twice the legal Z range; e.g. in
//     modes 0,1,20,21, Z in the mesh can extend to 511 instead
//     of 255. However, half-height blocks cannot be used.
//
// All of the following are just #ifdef tested so need no values, and are optional.
//
//    STBVOX_CONFIG_BLOCKTYPE_SHORT
//        use unsigned 16-bit values for 'blocktype' in the input instead of 8-bit values
//
//    STBVOX_CONFIG_OPENGL_MODELVIEW
//        use the gl_ModelView matrix rather than the explicit uniform
//
//    STBVOX_CONFIG_HLSL
//        NOT IMPLEMENTED! Define HLSL shaders instead of GLSL shaders
//
//    STBVOX_CONFIG_PREFER_TEXBUFFER
//        Stores many of the uniform arrays in texture buffers instead,
//        so they can be larger and may be more efficient on some hardware.
//
//    STBVOX_CONFIG_LIGHTING_SIMPLE
//        Creates a simple lighting engine with a single point light source
//        in addition to the default half-lambert ambient light.
//
//    STBVOX_CONFIG_LIGHTING
//        Declares a lighting function hook; you must append a lighting function
//        to the shader before compiling it:
//            vec3 compute_lighting(vec3 pos, vec3 norm, vec3 albedo, vec3 ambient);
//        'ambient' is the half-lambert ambient light with vertex ambient-occlusion applied
//
//    STBVOX_CONFIG_FOG_SMOOTHSTEP
//        Defines a simple unrealistic fog system designed to maximize
//        unobscured view distance while not looking too weird when things
//        emerge from the fog. Configured using an extra array element
//        in the STBVOX_UNIFORM_ambient uniform.
//
//    STBVOX_CONFIG_FOG
//        Defines a fog function hook; you must append a fog function to
//        the shader before compiling it:
//            vec3 compute_fog(vec3 color, vec3 relative_pos, float fragment_alpha);
//        "color" is the incoming pre-fogged color, fragment_alpha is the alpha value,
//        and relative_pos is the vector from the point to the camera in worldspace
//
//    STBVOX_CONFIG_DISABLE_TEX2
//        This disables all processing of texture 2 in the shader in case
//        you don't use it. Eventually this could be replaced with a mode
//        that omits the unused data entirely.
//
//    STBVOX_CONFIG_TEX1_EDGE_CLAMP
//    STBVOX_CONFIG_TEX2_EDGE_CLAMP
//        If you want to edge clamp the textures, instead of letting them wrap,
//        set this flag. By default stb_voxel_render relies on texture wrapping
//        to simplify texture coordinate generation. This flag forces it to do
//        it correctly, although there can still be minor artifacts.
//
//    STBVOX_CONFIG_ROTATION_IN_LIGHTING
//        Changes the meaning of the 'lighting' mesher input variable to also
//        store the rotation; see later discussion.
//
//    STBVOX_CONFIG_VHEIGHT_IN_LIGHTING
//        Changes the meaning of the 'lighting' mesher input variable to also
//        store the vheight; see later discussion. Cannot use both this and
//        the previous variable.
//
//    STBVOX_CONFIG_PREMULTIPLIED_ALPHA
//        Adjusts the shader calculations on the assumption that tex1.rgba,
//        tex2.rgba, and color.rgba all use premultiplied values, and that
//        the output of the fragment shader should be premultiplied.
//
//    STBVOX_CONFIG_UNPREMULTIPLY
//        Only meaningful if STBVOX_CONFIG_PREMULTIPLIED_ALPHA is defined.
//        Changes the behavior described above so that the inputs are
//        still premultiplied alpha, but the output of the fragment
//        shader is not premultiplied alpha. This is needed when allowing
//        non-unit alpha values but not doing alpha-blending (for example
//        when alpha testing).

//
// MESHING
//
// A mesh represents a (typically) small chunk of a larger world.
// Meshes encode coordinates using small integers, so those
// coordinates must be relative to some base location.
// All of the coordinates in the functions below use
// these relative coordinates unless explicitly stated
// otherwise.
//
// Input to the meshing step is documented further down

STBVXDEC void stbvox_init_mesh_maker(stbvox_mesh_maker *mm);
// Call this function to initialize a mesh-maker context structure
// used to build meshes. You should have one context per thread
// that's building meshes.

STBVXDEC void stbvox_set_buffer(stbvox_mesh_maker *mm, int mesh, int slot, void *buffer, size_t len);
// Call this to set the buffer into which stbvox will write the mesh
// it creates. It can build more than one mesh in parallel (distinguished
// by the 'mesh' parameter), and each mesh can be made up of more than
// one buffer (distinguished by the 'slot' parameter).
//
// Multiple meshes are under your control; use the 'selector' input
// variable to choose which mesh each voxel's vertices are written to.
// For example, you can use this to generate separate meshes for opaque
// and transparent data.
//
// You can query the number of slots by calling stbvox_get_buffer_count
// described below. The meaning of the buffer for each slot depends
// on STBVOX_CONFIG_MODE.
//
//   In mode 0 & mode 20, there is only one slot. The mesh data for that
//   slot is two interleaved vertex attributes: attr_vertex, a single
//   32-bit uint, and attr_face, a single 32-bit uint.
//
//   In mode 1 & mode 21, there are two slots. The first buffer should
//   be four times as large as the second buffer. The first buffer
//   contains a single vertex attribute: 'attr_vertex', a single 32-bit uint.
//   The second buffer contains texture buffer data (an array of 32-bit uints)
//   that will be accessed through the sampler identified by STBVOX_UNIFORM_face_data.

STBVXDEC int stbvox_get_buffer_count(stbvox_mesh_maker *mm);
// Returns the number of buffers needed per mesh as described above.

STBVXDEC int stbvox_get_buffer_size_per_quad(stbvox_mesh_maker *mm, int slot);
// Returns how much of a given buffer will get used per quad. This
// allows you to choose correct relative sizes for each buffer, although
// the values are fixed based on the configuration you've selected at
// compile time, and the details are described in stbvox_set_buffer.

STBVXDEC void stbvox_set_default_mesh(stbvox_mesh_maker *mm, int mesh);
// Selects which mesh the mesher will output to (see previous function)
// if the input doesn't specify a per-voxel selector. (I doubt this is
// useful, but it's here just in case.)

STBVXDEC stbvox_input_description *stbvox_get_input_description(stbvox_mesh_maker *mm);
// This function call returns a pointer to the stbvox_input_description part
// of stbvox_mesh_maker (which you should otherwise treat as opaque). You
// zero this structure, then fill out the relevant pointers to the data
// describing your voxel object/world.
//
// See further documentation at the description of stbvox_input_description below.

STBVXDEC void stbvox_set_input_stride(stbvox_mesh_maker *mm, int x_stride_in_elements, int y_stride_in_elements);
// This sets the stride between successive elements of the 3D arrays
// in the stbvox_input_description. Z values are always stored consecutively.
// (The preferred coordinate system for stbvox is X right, Y forwards, Z up.)

STBVXDEC void stbvox_set_input_range(stbvox_mesh_maker *mm, int x0, int y0, int z0, int x1, int y1, int z1);
// This sets the range of values in the 3D array for the voxels that
// the mesh generator will convert. The lower values are inclusive,
// the higher values are exclusive, so (0,0,0) to (16,16,16) generates
// mesh data associated with voxels up to (15,15,15) but no higher.
//
// The mesh generate generates faces at the boundary between open space
// and solid space but associates them with the solid space, so if (15,0,0)
// is open and (16,0,0) is solid, then the mesh will contain the boundary
// between them if x0 <= 16 and x1 > 16.
//
// Note that the mesh generator will access array elements 1 beyond the
// limits set in these parameters. For example, if you set the limits
// to be (0,0,0) and (16,16,16), then the generator will access all of
// the voxels between (-1,-1,-1) and (16,16,16), including (16,16,16).
// You may have to do pointer arithmetic to make it work.
//
// For example, caveview processes mesh chunks that are 32x32x16, but it
// does this using input buffers that are 34x34x18.
//
// The lower limits are x0 >= 0, y0 >= 0, and z0 >= 0.
//
// The upper limits are mode dependent, but all the current methods are
// limited to x1 < 127, y1 < 127, z1 < 255. Note that these are not
// powers of two; if you want to use power-of-two chunks (to make
// it efficient to decide which chunk a coordinate falls in), you're
// limited to at most x1=64, y1=64, z1=128. For classic Minecraft-style
// worlds with limited vertical extent, I recommend using a single
// chunk for the entire height, which limits the height to 255 blocks
// (one less than Minecraft), and only chunk the map in X & Y.

STBVXDEC int stbvox_make_mesh(stbvox_mesh_maker *mm);
// Call this function to create mesh data for the currently configured
// set of input data. This appends to the currently configured mesh output
// buffer. Returns 1 on success. If there is not enough room in the buffer,
// it outputs as much as it can, and returns 0; you need to switch output
// buffers (either by calling stbvox_set_buffer to set new buffers, or
// by copying the data out and calling stbvox_reset_buffers), and then
// call this function again without changing any of the input parameters.
//
// Note that this function appends; you can call it multiple times to
// build a single mesh. For example, caveview uses chunks that are
// 32x32x255, but builds the mesh for it by processing 32x32x16 at atime
// (this is faster as it is reuses the same 34x34x18 input buffers rather
// than needing 34x34x257 input buffers).

// Once you're done creating a mesh into a given buffer,
// consider the following functions:

STBVXDEC int stbvox_get_quad_count(stbvox_mesh_maker *mm, int mesh);
// Returns the number of quads in the mesh currently generated by mm.
// This is the sum of all consecutive stbvox_make_mesh runs appending
// to the same buffer. 'mesh' distinguishes between the multiple user
// meshes available via 'selector' or stbvox_set_default_mesh.
//
// Typically you use this function when you're done building the mesh
// and want to record how to draw it.
//
// Note that there are no index buffers; the data stored in the buffers
// should be drawn as quads (e.g. with GL_QUAD); if your API does not
// support quads, you can create a single index buffer large enough to
// draw your largest vertex buffer, and reuse it for every rendering.
// (Note that if you use 32-bit indices, you'll use 24 bytes of bandwidth
// per quad, more than the 20 bytes for the vertex/face mesh data.)

STBVXDEC void stbvox_set_mesh_coordinates(stbvox_mesh_maker *mm, int x, int y, int z);
// Sets the global coordinates for this chunk, such that (0,0,0) relative
// coordinates will be at (x,y,z) in global coordinates.

STBVXDEC void stbvox_get_bounds(stbvox_mesh_maker *mm, float bounds[2][3]);
// Returns the bounds for the mesh in global coordinates. Use this
// for e.g. frustum culling the mesh. @BUG: this just uses the
// values from stbvox_set_input_range(), so if you build by
// appending multiple values, this will be wrong, and you need to
// set stbvox_set_input_range() to the full size. Someday this
// will switch to tracking the actual bounds of the *mesh*, though.

STBVXDEC void stbvox_get_transform(stbvox_mesh_maker *mm, float transform[3][3]);
// Returns the 'transform' data for the shader uniforms. It is your
// job to set this to the shader before drawing the mesh. It is the
// only uniform that needs to change per-mesh. Note that it is not
// a 3x3 matrix, but rather a scale to decode fixed point numbers as
// floats, a translate from relative to global space, and a special
// translation for texture coordinate generation that avoids
// floating-point precision issues. @TODO: currently we add the
// global translation to the vertex, than multiply by modelview,
// but this means if camera location and vertex are far from the
// origin, we lose precision. Need to make a special modelview with
// the translation (or some of it) factored out to avoid this.

STBVXDEC void stbvox_reset_buffers(stbvox_mesh_maker *mm);
// Call this function if you're done with the current output buffer
// but want to reuse it (e.g. you're done appending with
// stbvox_make_mesh and you've copied the data out to your graphics API
// so can reuse the buffer).

//    64- or 128-long vec4 array. (128 only if STBVOX_CONFIG_PREFER_TEXBUFFER)
//    x: scale factor to apply to texture #1. must be a power of two. 1.0 means 'face-sized'
//    y: scale factor to apply to texture #2. must be a power of two. 1.0 means 'face-sized'
//    z: blend mode indexed by texture #2. 0.0 is alpha compositing; 1.0 is multiplication.
//    w: unused currently. @TODO use to support texture animation?
//
//    Texscale is indexed by the bottom 6 or 7 bits of the texture id; thus for
//    example the texture at index 0 in the array and the texture in index 128 of
//    the array must be scaled the same. This means that if you only have 64 or 128
//    unique textures, they all get distinct values anyway; otherwise you have
//    to group them in pairs or sets of four.

//  VHEIGHT DOCUMENTATION
//
//  "vheight" is the internal name for the special block types
//  with sloped tops or bottoms. "vheight" stands for "vertex height".
//
//  Note that these blocks are very flexible (there are 256 of them,
//  although at least 17 of them should never be used), but they
//  also have a disadvantage that they generate extra invisible
//  faces; the generator does not currently detect whether adjacent
//  vheight blocks hide each others sides, so those side faces are
//  always generated. For a continuous ground terrain, this means
//  that you may generate 5x as many quads as needed. See notes
//  on "improvements for shipping products" in the introduction.

enum
{
   STBVOX_VERTEX_HEIGHT_0,
   STBVOX_VERTEX_HEIGHT_half,
   STBVOX_VERTEX_HEIGHT_1,
   STBVOX_VERTEX_HEIGHT_one_and_a_half,
};
// These are the "vheight" values. Vheight stands for "vertex height".
// The idea is that for a "floor vheight" block, you take a cube and
// reposition the top-most vertices at various heights as specified by
// the vheight values. Similarly, a "ceiling vheight" block takes a
// cube and repositions the bottom-most vertices.
//
// A floor block only adjusts the top four vertices; the bottom four vertices
// remain at the bottom of the block. The height values are 2 bits,
// measured in halves of a block; so you can specify heights of 0/2,
// 1/2, 2/2, or 3/2. 0 is the bottom of the block, 1 is halfway
// up the block, 2 is the top of the block, and 3 is halfway up the
// next block (and actually outside of the block). The value 3 is
// actually legal for floor vheight (but not ceiling), and allows you to:
//
//     (A) have smoother terrain by having slopes that cross blocks,
//         e.g. (1,1,3,3) is a regular-seeming slope halfway between blocks
//     (B) make slopes steeper than 45-degrees, e.g. (0,0,3,3)
//
// (Because only z coordinates have half-block precision, and x&y are
// limited to block corner precision, it's not possible to make these
// things "properly" out of blocks, e.g. a half-slope block on its side
// or a sloped block halfway between blocks that's made out of two blocks.)
//
// If you define STBVOX_CONFIG_OPTIMIZED_VHEIGHT, then the top face
// (or bottom face for a ceiling vheight block) will be drawn as a
// single quad even if the four vertex heights aren't planar, and a
// single normal will be used over the entire quad. If you
// don't define it, then if the top face is non-planar, it will be
// split into two triangles, each with their own normal/lighting.
// (Note that since all output from stb_voxel_render is quad meshes,
// triangles are actually rendered as degenerate quads.) In this case,
// the distinction between STBVOX_GEOM_floor_vheight_03 and
// STBVOX_GEOM_floor_vheight_12 comes into play; the former introduces
// an edge from the SW to NE corner (i.e. from <0,0,?> to <1,1,?>),
// while the latter introduces an edge from the NW to SE corner
// (i.e. from <0,1,?> to <1,0,?>.) For a "lazy mesh" look, use
// exclusively _03 or _12. For a "classic mesh" look, alternate
// _03 and _12 in a checkerboard pattern. For a "smoothest surface"
// look, choose the edge based on actual vertex heights.
//
// The four vertex heights can come from several places. The simplest
// encoding is to just use the 'vheight' parameter which stores four
// explicit vertex heights for every block. This allows total independence,
// but at the cost of the largest memory usage, 1 byte per 3D block.
// Encode this with STBVOX_MAKE_VHEIGHT(vh_sw, vh_se, vh_nw, vh_ne).
// These coordinates are absolute, not affected by block rotations.
//
// An alternative if you just want to encode some very specific block
// types, not all the possibilities--say you just want half-height slopes,
// so you want (0,0,1,1) and (1,1,2,2)--then you can use block_vheight
// to specify them. The geometry rotation will cause block_vheight values
// to be rotated (because it's as if you're just defining a type of
// block). This value is also encoded with STBVOX_MAKE_VHEIGHT.
//
// If you want to save memory and you're creating a "continuous ground"
// sort of effect, you can make each vertex of the lattice share the
// vheight value; that is, two adjacent blocks that share a vertex will
// always get the same vheight value for that vertex. Then you need to
// store two bits of vheight for every block, which you do by storing it
// as part another data structure. Store the south-west vertex's vheight
// with the block. You can either use the "geometry" mesh variable (it's
// a parameter to STBVOX_MAKE_GEOMETRY) or you can store it in the
// "lighting" mesh variable if you defined STBVOX_CONFIG_VHEIGHT_IN_LIGHTING,
// using STBVOX_MAKE_LIGHTING_EXT(lighting,vheight).
//
// Note that if you start with a 2D height map and generate vheight data from
// it, you don't necessarily store only one value per (x,y) coordinate,
// as the same value may need to be set up at multiple z heights. For
// example, if height(8,8) = 13.5, then you want the block at (8,8,13)
// to store STBVOX_VERTEX_HEIGHT_half, and this will be used by blocks
// at (7,7,13), (8,7,13), (7,8,13), and (8,8,13). However, if you're
// allowing steep slopes, it might be the case that you have a block
// at (7,7,12) which is supposed to stick up to 13.5; that means
// you also need to store STBVOX_VERTEX_HEIGHT_one_and_a_half at (8,8,12).
