Hello, I'm using the world generator (land.c) found in maps/trunk/Info to generate a new continent for the in-progress Pup Land Big World migration. Here's a sample command I ran for a sample map: $ ./lander -m . -m -x 1500 -y 1500 -s 1007623715 -p 300 -n 170 -w 10000 -l 50000 And here is what I have been able to gather along with my questions and comments. Can anyone help clarify or answer my questions for me? - -x = number of 50 tile wide maps on x axis (1500 would be 30 maps that are 50 pixels wide; 150 would be 3 maps 50 pixels wide). No questions here. - -y = number of 50 tile tall maps on y axis (1500 would be 30 maps that are 50 pixels tall; 150 would be 3 maps 50 pixels tall). No questions here. seed (-s) = ?? Random number used to generate the fractal? Is there a min and max value that can be used? Does higher numbers provide more land or more water or neither? Higher or lower numbers for more jagged coastline or more rounded coastline and islands? land (-l) = ?? Is there a min and max value that can be used? Does higher numbers provide more land or more water or neither? Higher or lower numbers for more jagged coastline or more rounded coastline and islands? passes (-n) = Make lakes and ocean trenches. General note - it works better to have more passes, but each pass doing less work - this results in more consistent lakes and ocean trenching. Found this summary in either the write or source code. No questions here. wpasses (-p) = ?? What is this? Is there a min and max value that can be used? Does higher numbers provide more land or more water or neither? water (-w) = ?? Is there a min and max value that can be used? Does higher numbers provide more land or more water or neither? Higher or lower numbers for more jagged coastline or more rounded coastline and islands? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iD8DBQFS+o6BhHyvgBp+vH4RAllyAJ9wkgc+uFjj7+vIDbt9TyxMS5lsdwCgt2GC eTfUdCFLGUqUA6t6hmIq+90= =7isQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ crossfire mailing list crossfire@metalforge.org http://mailman.metalforge.org/mailman/listinfo/crossfire
