To Quantize
means to limit the number of possible values (i.e. colors) to a certain
amount of levels. This function is especially useful when working on a
heightmap, which has to represent steps or multiple, isolated levels.

The program works with 8 bit per
color channel, which allows values between 0 and 255. These colors
are rounded down to levels, that are defined by the distance to
each other. This distance is controlled with the Divisor
value. For example if you set it to 64, the colors are divided by
64, limiting them to 4 different levels (256/64=4). |

Add a constant value
to the color channels before they are quantized. |
