Cave Map Maker
« on: September 13, 2020, 03:15:13 am »
This is for people that play roll playing games that use caves, or paths, or whatever and need a completely random map grid. Making it was a challenge but I knew I could do it. It has some A.I. in the fact that it starts out making the START and FINISH areas first, then it generates different caves (or paths) starting from the START area and eventually ending up at the FINISH area. It usually takes a few different paths in order to make the right way to go, which I figured would make your roll playing game more challenging and fun anyway. I haven't added a Save feature, not sure if I will or not, but I did add a Print feature to print it on your printer. When the Title Bar says "Press Space Bar for another one, P to Print, C to copy to Clipboard, or Esc to Quit," that means it is finished generating that one. Usually it only takes a few seconds or less. Once in awhile it only needs one direct cave that goes straight to it. The A.I. points the cave(s) toward the FINISH but not on every turn. I also just added C to copy the image to the Clipboard so you can paste it to any graphics program you have to save or change it. If you don't like the map it makes, when it's done making it, press the Space Bar for another one. It's almost limitless on how many different maps it can make.
Tell me what you think, thanks.

The grid is 800 x 800 with 35 x 35 cells (20 pixels x 20 pixels per cell). It is a white background with black lines so it's printer-friendly and takes up almost an entire page printing it.

Here's one that goes almost completely directly from START to FINISH. Which would be totally cool for even adding to a computer game. This one also only needs one cave per map. I added an example picture of what this makes below.

And then of course I HAD to make the crazy maze version. I've made similar maze generators in the past but this is the first time every single one of them have a way out. If people used this as a roll playing map, it might take TONS of time to get through it. LOL There is a picture below.

Those are pretty neat, and I like the copy to clipboard function. I can take it to a image editor, mess with the various filters and contrast and get a good looking basic cave shape.

PS I pasted one to Image Composer and alternated a neon glow effect with a negative effect.

Wow that looks wild, thanks OldMoses! I tested it with PAINT also and it fills in the caves and streets very nicely. I didn't post it though because it wouldn't be too great for printers. But people can do like you did and use Fill to fill in too. :)

Thanks B+. I added a counter and when the counter reaches 10, then it changes direction. The counter is actually in 2 places so it counts them at different times. This program has been beating me up the last couple days though. I've made it look like a simple maze, adding streets of different lengths and locations. But the maze itself is only good for kids like under 5 years old because they are so simple to finish. I remember you showing us the maze you made that time. I don't know if I could ever do that though, which is why I've been trying to make this one better. But here is what I have so far. I don't know if I will (or can) make it any better than this though. I don't like how it makes giant looking parking lots sometimes. I tried for around an hour or more to fix that, but to no prevail.

That kind of layout reminds me of Pac Man, if the ghoulies were coming down one "street" you could duck off into another route.

I have decided to make a more complicated path maker, with smaller blocks. Plus there's less code on this version and written a lot differently. Check it out. There's no "Start" or "Finish" words but I figured that is obvious. Sometimes there will even be 2 open Finish areas. This one determines when it's finished just when the path reaches the top. Like the other one, sometimes there's a lot of open space, sometimes a direct path, etc.

Space Bar makes a new one. C copies to clipboard. P prints it on the printer.
