Suggestion for map creating

[wilkgr76]

Ok, I might have read something incorrectly here, but here's my idea:

Instead of making maps using 3d models, we use images to create maps. The higher the resolution of the image, the bigger the map is. I think the rest is clear - black means higher, white means lower, etc.

Ramps would also be easier, and doors could be implemented with a line of red (?) pixels?

Side note, if the walls are low enough, the minotaur can just jump over em 😉

Hehe... I don't think that I wanna work on this project any more. It was meant for one contest some time ago...
But overally not bad idea for map construction.

I think that this system would work:

• red channel indicates floor height(no floor if black)
• green channel indicates ceiling height(no ceiling if black, always higher than floor)
• blue builds the route plan(more blue, faster route)
• alpha can be used for some special conditions or something like that.

I suppose we could use a random number generator to generate the floor & ceiling - to make it cave-like - and then manually edit it to add walls, etc.

@adriansnetlis Also consider being able to play from the viewpoint of the minotaur...
