What it does

godzilla.kaiju

Builds the Godzilla voxel model (visual only). No AI, no physics — the game moves the GODZILLA root kinematically and rotates the part entities to animate.

API

local K = require("@root::godzilla.kaiju")

local g = K.spawn({ 0, 0, 0 })
-- g = { root = id, parts = { body, head, tail, armL, armR, legL, legR } }

K.setBreathGlow(true)                    -- electric-blue spike + mouth glow
K.setBreathGlow(true, { 1, 0.3, 0.1 })   -- custom color
K.setBreathGlow(false)

K.despawn()
  • spawn(pos) despawns any existing GODZILLA first, then rebuilds. pos is the ground point (array or {x,y,z} map).
  • setBreathGlow(on, color?) returns true when a spawned Godzilla was updated, false when nothing is spawned.

Model

~28.5 m tall, facing +z, ground at y=0. Seven VoxelShape parts (all blockSize = 0.5) parented to the root; each part's pivot sits at its joint so the game can rotate part entities directly:

partgrid (voxels)pivotjoint
body24 x 28 x 20bottom-centerhip (y 10..24)
head12 x 10 x 16bottom-centerneck top (y 23.5)
tail12 x 20 x 30{0,0,1} (hip end)hip, droops to ~2 m
armL/armR8 x 14 x 12top-centershoulder
legL/legR12 x 22 x 16top-centerhip

Charcoal gray-green skin (#2e3b34), lighter belly plate bands, pale bone dorsal fins in a large central row plus two smaller side rows down neck-back-tail, amber eyes, deep open jaw with teeth and a dark-red mouth.

Breath glow

The voxel mesh renders with one shared material, so the glow is built from small emissive Model cubes parented to the parts at the spike tips (9 on the body, 3 on the tail) and inside the mouth, hidden by default. setBreathGlow shows/hides them; each color gets a cached gz_kaiju_glow_<r>_<g>_<b> pbr material (created on demand via Material.Create, landing at /zero/source/<name>.material).

Interface

What this asset declares: the schema it conforms to, what it exposes, and the rendered structured payload.

conforms to

zero/source-extract/v2

godzilla.kaiju — builds the Godzilla voxel model (visual only). M.spawn(pos) assembles ~28 m Godzilla from seven VoxelShape parts parented to one root entity named GODZILLA. The game rotates the part entities to animate; each part's pivot sits at its joint (legs/arms at the hip/shoulder, tail at the hip, head at the neck). No physics bodies or colliders. Dorsal-spike + mouth glow: the voxel shape mesh renders with one shared material, so the breath glow is implemented as small emissive Model cubes embedded at the spike tips and inside the mouth, hidden by default. M.setBreathGlow(on, color?) shows/hides them; a color change swaps in a cached emissive material for that color.

ensureGlowMaterial(color: { number }) → string

Cached emissive material per glow color.

backFin(h: any, x0: number, yc: number, att: number, r: number) → void

Vertical dorsal fin protruding backward (-z). att = back-surface z of the torso at that height; r = fin size. Two voxels wide in x (x0..x0+1).

buildBody(root: string) → string

Parts. Model faces +z; back / dorsal side is -z; ground is y=0. Torso + neck + belly plates + dorsal spike rows. Grid 24x28x20, hip at world y≈10 (bottom-center pivot), so the body spans y 10..24.

buildHead(root: string) → string

Skull, brow, amber eyes, deep open jaw with teeth + glowing mouth interior. Grid 12x10x16, sits on the neck top (bottom-center pivot).

buildTail(root: string) → string

Thick tail tapering over ~14.5 m with a drooping curve and small top fins. Grid 12x20x30; pivot at the hip end ({0,0,1}) so rotating the part swings the whole tail.

buildArm(root: string, sideSign: number) → string

Short clawed arm. Grid 8x14x12; pivot at the shoulder (top-center).

buildLeg(root: string, sideSign: number) → string

Massive digitigrade leg: forward thigh, mid knee, back-set ankle, clawed foot. Grid 12x22x16; pivot at the hip (top-center).

spawn(pos: Vec3Like?) → SpawnResult

Build Godzilla at `pos` (ground point, y-up). Despawns any existing GODZILLA first. Returns the root entity id plus the seven part ids.

setBreathGlow(on: boolean, color: { number }?) → boolean

Toggle the dorsal-spike + mouth breath glow.

argtypedescription
onbooleantrue to show the glow, false to hide it.
color{ number }?Optional {r,g,b} 0..1; defaults to electric blue.

despawn( ) → void

Remove GODZILLA (root + every part + glow entity).

Usability ratings

Did the part work as advertised when consumers tried to drop it in. Separate from upvotes: those are taste; this is "did it function".
