Package com.jme3.light

Class AmbientLight

java.lang.Object

com.jme3.light.Light

com.jme3.light.AmbientLight

All Implemented Interfaces:

Savable, Cloneable

public class AmbientLight
extends Light

An ambient light adds a constant color to the scene.

Ambient lights are unaffected by the surface normal, and are constant regardless of the model's location. The material's ambient color is multiplied by the ambient light color to get the final ambient color of an object.

Method Details

intersectsBox

public boolean intersectsBox(BoundingBox box,
 TempVars vars)

Description copied from class: Light

Determines if the light intersects with the given bounding box.

For non-local lights, such as directional lights, ambient lights, or point lights without influence radius, this method should always return true.

Specified by:

intersectsBox in class Light

Parameters:

box - The box to check intersection against.

vars - TempVars in case it is needed.

Returns:

True if the light intersects the box, false otherwise.

intersectsSphere

public boolean intersectsSphere(BoundingSphere sphere,
 TempVars vars)

Description copied from class: Light

Determines if the light intersects with the given bounding sphere.

For non-local lights, such as directional lights, ambient lights, or point lights without influence radius, this method should always return true.

Specified by:

intersectsSphere in class Light

Parameters:

sphere - The sphere to check intersection against.

vars - TempVars in case it is needed.

Returns:

True if the light intersects the sphere, false otherwise.

intersectsFrustum

public boolean intersectsFrustum(Camera camera,
 TempVars vars)

Description copied from class: Light

Determines if the light intersects with the given camera frustum. For non-local lights, such as directional lights, ambient lights, or point lights without influence radius, this method should always return true.

Specified by:

intersectsFrustum in class Light

Parameters:

camera - The camera frustum to check intersection against.

vars - TempVars in case it is needed.

Returns:

True if the light intersects the frustum, false otherwise.

computeLastDistance

public void computeLastDistance(Spatial owner)

Description copied from class: Light

Used internally to compute the last distance value.

Specified by:

computeLastDistance in class Light

Parameters:

owner - the Spatial whose distance is to be determined

getType

public Light.Type getType()

Description copied from class: Light

Returns the light type

Specified by:

getType in class Light

Returns:

the light type
