- eased

Maps noise gradient values onto a quintic S-curve before performing interpolation.

This results in smooth, rolling noise. Disable this for sharp-looking noise.

This results in smooth, rolling noise. Disable this ("noeased") for sharp-looking noise.

If no flags are specified (or defaults is), 2D noise is eased and 3D noise is not eased.

- absvalue

Accumulates the absolute value of each noise gradient result.
