Detailed Description

Uses cellular automaton to generate interesting cave-like maps. This implementation always tries to make a connected map. For large maps, this is usually done by removing small unconnected portions of the map. For small maps, the whole map is usually scrapped and a new map generated. Since the map is small, this turns out to be fairly inexpensive. However, after 100 tries, the algorithm quits, most likely leaving a completely impassible

World 

. This all but guaranteed on exceptionally small maps.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

jade.gen.map.Cellular.Cellular

(

)

Creates a new instance of

Cellular 

with the default open tile of '.' and a default closed tile of '#'.

jade.gen.map.Cellular.Cellular	(	ColoredChar	floor,
		ColoredChar	wall
	)

Creates a new instance of

Cellular 

with the specified open and closed tiles.

Parameters

floor	the face of the open tiles
wall	the face of the closed tiles

jade.gen.map.Cellular.Cellular	(	ColoredChar	floor,
		ColoredChar	wall,
		int	wallChance,
		int	minCount,
		int	maxCount
	)

Creates a new instance of Cellular with the specified generation parameters. Great care should be taken when customizing these parameters, as certain configurations may make it impossible to generate good levels.

Parameters

floor	the face of the open tiles
wall	the face of the closed tiles
wallChance	the chance out of 100 of seeding the map with a wall, as well as the required percent of wall tiles for the map to be accepted
minCount	the minimum number of walls at distance 1 to generate a wall
maxCount	the maximum number of walls at distance 2 to generate a wall
