When creating a terrain of feature using randomness, we need a way to ensure online players see the same terrain.
For example, in the floor is lava demo, the islands are generated randomly during loading time, using Math.random().
for(let i=0; i<35; i++) {
let position = new THREE.Vector3(Math.random() * 800 - 400, 0, Math.random() * 1000);
virtualEnvironment.newSolidGeometriesFromSource('../../../resources/objects/rock_platform.glb', position.x, position.y, position.z, Math.random() * 20 + 4);
}
The problem with this generation technique: every user gets a different world since the randomness is not seeded.
To solve this, we need a seedable random number generator so we can insure that every users get the same result when entering a world with randomness features.
