SkellySoul Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Hey, it seems like someone misunderstood my old thread. I posted a game link yes, as a example, it be no different than me posting a game link in chat. The only reason for posting the game link is because I want to recreate what they did. All I was asking for is how do you create algorithm like the one that they used to generate a unique map that links together. If you must know, my school project is to create a game and the said game just happens to be the challenge I am looking for but I was little confused of how they went about generating the maps and piecing them together like they do.

jchd Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 (edited) You first need to determine rules as constraints which will govern what is allowable for territiries. Things like minimum and maximum "surface", etc.Then the territories in those maps are made up of hexagons. That is the grid on which you'll work. Select a convenient number of random points (for both camps), while rejecting new ones which are too close to old points, and also rejecting those which are too far from friend centers. Think of them as the centers of the future territories. Then "grow them up" following hexagonal expansion until their boundaries encounter.If you end up with unwanted configurations, think about introducing more stringent rules for random points or for expansion. For instance you may want to also imagine you do the map creation for three camps (green, blue and neutral -- shown as unassigned white in the maps). This way can help avoid orphan islands and such bad maps. Edited January 17, 2012 by jchd This wonderful site allows debugging and testing regular expressions (many flavors available).
