Ravines are actually doable

Ravines, now with rotation!

NO raymarching

Have you considered using a chain of slightly randomly rotated cuboids to make it not a straight line?

I haven't, but I'm not sure how to go about that.

[Crepestrom]

It’s not exactly possible because rotations and offsets can’t stack so you cannot do the types of rotations needed

[IntegratedQuantum]

It is definitely possible, it's just a matter of how you combine cluster and rotation (note that it had some bugs, which were fixed in ebed6d5).

But to be honest it is not ergonomic at all. I think we need some kind of path-based SDF that generates multiple copies of some SDF along a path.
