Hi!
I have been reading this article: http://roguebasin.roguelikedevelopment.org/index.php?title=Basic_directional_dungeon_generation, but I cant understand what I am supposed to do: I dont even know when I am supposed to render any objects. Can anybody help me, and explain how that algorithm works, and how to implement it in my code? Thanks!
@edit: I have tried to implement the algorithm like this, but it crashes the Java Runtime! Here is the code:
public class MapGenerator {
private int length, roughness, windyness, mapWidth;
private int[] roll = { -2, -1, 1, 2 };
private World world;
public MapGenerator(int length, int roughness, int windyness, int mapWidth, World world) {
this.length = length;
this.roughness = roughness;
this.windyness = windyness;
this.mapWidth = mapWidth;
this.world = world;
}
public void generate(int startingX, int startingY, int startingWidth) {
int x, y, width;
x = startingX;
y = startingY;
width = startingWidth;
Random r = new Random();
BodyDef bodyDef = new BodyDef();
FixtureDef fixtureDef = new FixtureDef();
for (int a = 0; a <= length; a++) {
y++;
if (r.nextInt(100) <= roughness) {
int ro = r.nextInt(4);
width += roll[ro];
if (width > 3)
width = 3;
if (width > mapWidth)
width = mapWidth;
}
if (r.nextInt(100) <= windyness) {
int ro = r.nextInt(4);
x += roll[ro];
if (x < 0)
x = 0;
if (x > mapWidth - 3)
x = mapWidth - 3;
}
bodyDef.type = BodyType.StaticBody;
bodyDef.position.set(x, y);
ChainShape shape = new ChainShape();
shape.createChain(new Vector2[] {
new Vector2(x, y),
new Vector2(x + width, y),
new Vector2(x + width, y),
new Vector2(x, y)
});
fixtureDef.shape = shape;
fixtureDef.density = 3;
fixtureDef.restitution = 0.2f;
fixtureDef.friction = 0.2f;
world.createBody(bodyDef).createFixture(fixtureDef);
}
}
}
