cloudsreadonly
colorreadonly
Used where there is no albedo map, and to tint one that is grayscale.
geometricAlbedoreadonly
Geometric albedo: how bright the body is at full phase.
hazereadonly
liquidreadonly
The liquid that stands or runs here, or null where nothing does.
Present wherever the grammar admits a liquid, sea or no sea: a dry world with rivers still has to draw them in something. Where a photograph exists the sea is in it and the renderer draws no sheet, so this is read only through the palette of a mapless body.
mapsreadonly
pigmentreadonly
The color a biosphere paints the ground, where the cover says one grows.
A pigment rather than a modifier on color: chlorophyll is green on
basalt and green on sandstone. Which pigment is the seed's, weighted the
way the photochemistry argues — green is the common answer, and a purple
or a near-black one is a world that found a different molecule.
reliefreadonly
Peak-to-trough elevation the normal map represents, meters.
ringsreadonly
roughnessreadonly
Microfacet roughness of the surface. 0 is a mirror; rock is near 1.
texturereadonly
Texture-set key, or null for a body with no maps.
