polymapgenerator's Introduction

Polygonal Map Generator

Polygonal map generator for games. Generates island maps with a focus on mountains, rivers, coastlines.

About

Procedural Content Generation for Polygonal Maps.

The main idea behind the algorithm is taken from Amit's Polygonal Map Generation for Games.

The main code of this repository is based on Rellikiox's Map Generator.

Features

To-do

Part 3

  • Using OpenGL or DirectX to represent 3D terrain (and remove dependency on SFML).
  • Implement math library for Vector3 to structure 3-dimensional points.
  • Create graphics tool to control parameters.

Part 4

  • Add polygonal map generator for basement (e.g. lava, mineral, cave, ground water, and so on).

Doing

Part 2

  • Add parameters to control map generation (e.g. the number of islands, maximum heights of map, and so on).
    • Seed
    • The number of points
    • The size of map
    • The number of islands
    • The size of island
    • The number of rivers
    • The size of river
    • Noise
    • Biome ratio
    • Land ratio
    • Output data options
    • Etc
  • Create console tool to control these parameters.

Done

Part 1

  • Place a number of random but uniformly distributed points (using Poisson Disk Sampling).
  • Calculate the Voronoi diagram of the points (using Lloyd's algorithm).
  • Using Perlin Noise determine which cells are land and which are water.
  • Calculate the elevation of each point as its distance to the sea. Normalize all the heights.
  • Place river sources in random spots and let them flow downwards.
  • Calculate the moisture od each point given its distance to the sea (less moisture) and rivers (more moisture).
  • Using Conex Hull algorithm determine the order of points (for sf::ConvexShape).
  • Code refactoring - No warning messages at warning level 4.
