BakeTarget and LightSource

In Kanikama, there are BakeTarget and LightSource components for light sources.

BakeTarget: for baking lightmaps in Unity Editor.
LightSource: for getting colors of light sources at runtime.

For each light sources, you will add a BakeTarget and a LightSource components to its GameObject:

Unity	Bakery	BakeTarget	LightSource	LightSource (U#)
Light	-	KanikamaBakeTargetLight	KanikamaRuntimeLight	KanikamaUdonLight
Renderer	-	KanikamaBakeTargetLightMesh	KanikamaRuntimeLightMesh	KanikamaUdonLightMesh
Light	BakeryPointLight	KanikamaBakeryPointLight	KanikamaRuntimeLight	KanikamaUdonLight
Light	BakeryDirectLight	KanikamaBakeryDirectLight	KanikamaRuntimeLight	KanikamaUdonLight
Light	BakeryLightMesh	KanikamaBakeryAreaLight	KanikamaRuntimeLight	KanikamaUdonLight
Renderer	BakeryLightMesh	KanikamaBakeryLightMesh	KanikamaRuntimeLightMesh	KanikamaUdonLightMesh
Light	BakerySkyLight	KanikamaBakerySkyLight	KanikamaRuntimeLight	KanikamaUdonLight

BakeTargetGroup and LightSourceGroup are components for light sources that require baking lightmaps multiple times, for example, texture lights (monitors).

BakeTarget	LightSource	LightSource (U#)
KanikamaBakeTargetMonitorGroup	KanikamaRuntimeMonitorCamera	KanikamaUdonMonitorCamera

Note that you can also create your own components inheriting BakeTarget or LightSource.

BakeTarget Descriptor

To describe BakeTargets in your Scene, you need to create a KanikamaBakeTargetDescriptor object in your Scene and specify BakeTargets and BakeTargetGroups in the Inspector window.

GI Updater

To update GI at runtime, you also need a GI Updater component. There are two built-in GI updater components:

name	lang	note	prefab path
KanikamaRuntimeGIUpdater	C#	Works with Built-in RP and URP	`Packages/Kanikama/Runtime/Application/Prefabs/KanikamaRuntimeGIUpdater.prefab`
KanikamaUdonGIUpdater	U#	Works in VRChat	`Packages/Kanikama Udon/Runtime/Prefabs/KanikamaUdonGIUpdater.prefab`
