ReflectionProbe
===============

**Inherits:** :ref:`VisualInstance<class_VisualInstance>` **<** :ref:`Spatial<class_Spatial>` **<** :ref:`Node<class_Node>` **<** :ref:`Object<class_Object>`

Captures its surroundings to create reflections.

Description
-----------

Capture its surroundings as a dual parabolid image, and stores versions of it with increasing levels of blur to simulate different material roughnesses.

Enumerations
------------

.. _enum_ReflectionProbe_UpdateMode:

.. _class_ReflectionProbe_constant_UPDATE_ONCE:

.. _class_ReflectionProbe_constant_UPDATE_ALWAYS:

enum **UpdateMode**:

- **UPDATE_ONCE** = **0**

- **UPDATE_ALWAYS** = **1**

Property Descriptions
---------------------

.. _class_ReflectionProbe_property_box_projection:

- :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **box_projection**

+-----------+----------------------------------+
| *Default* | ``false``                        |
+-----------+----------------------------------+
| *Setter*  | set_enable_box_projection(value) |
+-----------+----------------------------------+
| *Getter*  | is_box_projection_enabled()      |
+-----------+----------------------------------+

If ``true``, enables box projection. This makes reflections look more correct in rectangle-shaped rooms by offsetting the reflection center depending on the camera's location.

----

.. _class_ReflectionProbe_property_cull_mask:

- :ref:`int<class_int>` **cull_mask**

+-----------+----------------------+
| *Default* | ``1048575``          |
+-----------+----------------------+
| *Setter*  | set_cull_mask(value) |
+-----------+----------------------+
| *Getter*  | get_cull_mask()      |
+-----------+----------------------+

----

.. _class_ReflectionProbe_property_enable_shadows:

- :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **enable_shadows**

+-----------+---------------------------+
| *Default* | ``false``                 |
+-----------+---------------------------+
| *Setter*  | set_enable_shadows(value) |
+-----------+---------------------------+
| *Getter*  | are_shadows_enabled()     |
+-----------+---------------------------+

If ``true``, computes shadows in the reflection probe. This makes the reflection probe slower to render; you may want to disable this if using the :ref:`UPDATE_ALWAYS<class_ReflectionProbe_constant_UPDATE_ALWAYS>` :ref:`update_mode<class_ReflectionProbe_property_update_mode>`.

----

.. _class_ReflectionProbe_property_extents:

- :ref:`Vector3<class_Vector3>` **extents**

+-----------+------------------------+
| *Default* | ``Vector3( 1, 1, 1 )`` |
+-----------+------------------------+
| *Setter*  | set_extents(value)     |
+-----------+------------------------+
| *Getter*  | get_extents()          |
+-----------+------------------------+

----

.. _class_ReflectionProbe_property_intensity:

- :ref:`float<class_float>` **intensity**

+-----------+----------------------+
| *Default* | ``1.0``              |
+-----------+----------------------+
| *Setter*  | set_intensity(value) |
+-----------+----------------------+
| *Getter*  | get_intensity()      |
+-----------+----------------------+

Defines the reflection intensity.

----

.. _class_ReflectionProbe_property_interior_ambient_color:

- :ref:`Color<class_Color>` **interior_ambient_color**

+-----------+-----------------------------+

+-----------+-----------------------------+
| *Setter*  | set_interior_ambient(value) |
+-----------+-----------------------------+
| *Getter*  | get_interior_ambient()      |
+-----------+-----------------------------+

----

- :ref:`float<class_float>` **interior_ambient_contrib**

+-----------+------------------------------------------------+
| *Default* | ``0.0``                                        |
+-----------+------------------------------------------------+
| *Setter*  | set_interior_ambient_probe_contribution(value) |
+-----------+------------------------------------------------+
| *Getter*  | get_interior_ambient_probe_contribution()      |
+-----------+------------------------------------------------+

----

.. _class_ReflectionProbe_property_interior_ambient_energy:

- :ref:`float<class_float>` **interior_ambient_energy**

+-----------+------------------------------------+
| *Default* | ``1.0``                            |
+-----------+------------------------------------+
| *Setter*  | set_interior_ambient_energy(value) |
+-----------+------------------------------------+
| *Getter*  | get_interior_ambient_energy()      |
+-----------+------------------------------------+

+-----------+-------------------------+
| *Default* | ``0.0``                 |
+-----------+-------------------------+
| *Setter*  | set_max_distance(value) |
+-----------+-------------------------+
| *Getter*  | get_max_distance()      |
+-----------+-------------------------+
