Map generator with perlin noise

Project of map generator. Main reason - getting some fun with arrays and visualisation of data. But also, getting know how to use multiprocessing, file management and many other.

Features:

• Noise Generator

  • Basic generation and visualization of noise array
    • Basic levels for better visualisation of surface topology
    • Colors of levels for even better topology visualization
      • Additional controls (sea, plains and hills levels)
      • Scrolling option for bigger maps
        • Drag and drop the map
      • Zoom
  • Basic controls for noise parameters (scale, octaves, persistence, base, factor)
    • Array offsetting
  • Dynamically controlled additional noise arrays for more complex topologies

• Gradient

  • Basic (circle) gradient
    • Option to choose between circle and square pattern
  • Controls for pattern parameters

• Other

  • Multiprocessing for faster generation of big arrays
  • Handling different events (resize window, control's value change)
  • Generation of additional topology details (biomes, rivers, lakes)
  • Saving setup, profiles
  • Export/Import of arrays/maps
