Regression

No

Standalone builds do not include instanced Terrain shaders if the Terrains are created dynamically at runtime.

Terrain

-

How to reproduce:
1. Open the user-submitted project ("terrainbug.zip")
2. Open the "SampleScene" and enter Play Mode
3. Observe the Instanced terrain is working properly
4. Build the Project and observe the lack of a drawn terrain
5. Press "I" on your keyboard to toggle "drawInstanced" renderer off and observe the difference

Expected result: the terrain is rendered correctly both in the Editor and Standalone Build without any issues
Actual result: the terrain isn't rendered at all in the Standalone build when "drawInstanced" is set to true

Reproduced in: 2019.2.0a7, 2019.1.0b5, 2018.3.7f1, 2018.3.0a4
Couldn't test with: 2018.3.0a3, 2017.4.22f1 (these versions don't accept "drawInstanced" as a valid argument)

  1. Resolution Note (2019.2.X):

    Terrain shader is not included in the build if it's not used. Furthermore the instancing variant won't be included if instancing is not enabled on the terrain.

    The right way to do runtime terrain creation is to include a Material referencing the terrain shader you want to use and enable instancing on it.
