playArea doesn't remove objects in the radius

[carlosveny]

Hello, when I use the attribute playArea and increase its value the radius of flatten terrain increases but the objects in that flatten terrain are still there (trees for example). This is a bug right? Or maybe I'm not using it properly.
Thanks

Still the same issue for me

It looks like maybe in line 989 the distance default is not set correctly?
I changed
distance = 10 + Math.max(dv.x, dv.z) + 10 * this.random(r + 1) + this.random(r + 2) * this.STAGE_SIZE / 3;
to
distance = this.environmentData.playArea + Math.max(dv.x, dv.z) + 10 * this.random(r + 1) + this.random(r + 2) * this.STAGE_SIZE / 3;
in a local copy of aframe-environment-component.js and got the effect I was looking for.

A side comment: I not sure why the playArea schema wants to clamp the value between 0.5 and 10. I need a little more elbow room for some projects. (students doing simple a-frame creative projects for a college general education course). This seems to override that limit.

Warning, I am a complete .js noob
