Roadmap

• Transitions (stairs up, stairs down, transitions)

  • Not all tilesets support these features. Valid for at least crypt, sewers, dungeons and steamworks.
  • map-stairs-up (U), map-stairs-down (D), map-transitions (T)
    • Can replace deadend
    • Can be placed on the border of a corridor, entering into the corridor
    • Can be placed on the border of a room, entering into the room
    • Allow param "count", but also preferred direction (N,E,S,W), and preferred type (deadend, corridor, room)?
  • map-exits 0 (E)
    • On a room border, in the middle of 3 cells
    • Requires group tile support

• Extra map layouts (cross, dagger, round, ...)

• Doors

  • Does not occupy a cell, but is rather between two cells
  • Can not be placed anywhere, especially two in the same corner of a room. Either two corridors, or two doors.
  • Close off all rooms?

• For are and are.json generation, accept an json input file to set basic information (tag, name, etc...)

• An HTTP REST API frontend to be called via nwnxee requests.

• Allow new room size (3x5, 5x5, etc.)

• Extend room reshaping to create L, U shape rooms, cutting corners, pillars, etc..

• Use tileset "set" file for dungeon generation?

• Accept a configuration file as input.

• Decide on how to handle minimum rooms: 1 or 2, retry idefinitly if we can?

Known bugs & limitations

• Crypt tileset only.
• Currently limited to maps from 5 to 31 cells in height and width.
• Some deadends are not marked as such.
• Entrance point is always stairs up tile, and is always added on a deadend.
• Random seed might generate different dungeons depending on nwn-dg version upgrades.
• Binary file is not accepted as a random seed
