=head2 Using random maps |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
Any exit with "/!" as the destination map will generate a random map. To |
| 6 |
specify random map parameters, you put parameters in the message field for |
| 7 |
the exit. |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
=head2 How styles work |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
A "style" is usually a small map which contains only objects which |
| 12 |
define the "style". For example, a monsterstyle "orc" might be a map |
| 13 |
generated with crossedit which has six orcs, a kobold, and a troll in it. |
| 14 |
When monsters are placed, the generator will randomly choose monsters from the |
| 15 |
"orc" style, and for this example, on average, it will generate 6 orcs/troll |
| 16 |
and 1 kobold/troll. So orcs will be very common, and there'll be occasional |
| 17 |
trolls and kobolds. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
In principle, you may put any object in any style map. However, the |
| 20 |
map generator will do special things with the object depending on which |
| 21 |
directory it is in. Style maps are located in maps/styles/*, you may use |
| 22 |
the editor to modify the style maps, or create new ones. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Any style parameters that accept a map path accept both simple maps |
| 25 |
(F<.map> files), meta files (F<.rmg>) and directories. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
Maps will simply be used as-is. |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
Meta files are JSON objects with (currently) only one key: "maps" which |
| 30 |
must be a hash with C<"path" : weight> pairs, of which one is randomly |
| 31 |
chosen. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
Directories are handled based on the filenames in it: if there are any |
| 34 |
files with "_\d+" in their name (e.g F<map_1.map>, F<map_99.map>), |
| 35 |
then the one with the value closest to the difficulty value is chosen, |
| 36 |
otherwise a random entry is picked (which can in turn be a meta file, |
| 37 |
directory etc.). |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
=head2 Style Parameters |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
layoutstyle <style> (special!) Pick the layout style for the map. |
| 42 |
Currently, "rogue", "spiral", "maze", "cave", |
| 43 |
"castle", "snake", "onion", "squarespiral" and |
| 44 |
"multiple" are allowed. See below for more |
| 45 |
detail. |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
floorstyle <style> Load /styles/floorstyles/<style> and pick a random |
| 48 |
floortype from that style map for the random map. |
| 49 |
The entire map will be tiled with the floortype. |
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
wallstyle <style> Load /styles/wallstyles/<style> and pick a random |
| 52 |
walltype from that style for the random map. All |
| 53 |
the walls in the map will be of this type. The |
| 54 |
walls are modified on insertion so that players |
| 55 |
cannot go through them: this is expected for |
| 56 |
walls, but the random map generator makes sure of |
| 57 |
it. A <style> of "none" causes no walls or doors |
| 58 |
to be generated. |
| 59 |
|
| 60 |
doorstyle <style> Load /styles/doorstyles/<style> and pick a random |
| 61 |
doortype from that style for the random map. A |
| 62 |
<style> of "none" causes no doors to generated. |
| 63 |
|
| 64 |
exitstyle <style> Put one or two exits in the map, one leading back |
| 65 |
to the map where we entered from (origin_map, |
| 66 |
origin_x, origin_y), and, if appropriate, one |
| 67 |
leading to another, harder, random map. A style of |
| 68 |
"none" causes no exits to be generated. |
| 69 |
|
| 70 |
decorstyle <style> Load /styles/decorstyles/<style> and pick the |
| 71 |
decor objects from that style to insert in the |
| 72 |
map. Decor objects are modified on insertion so |
| 73 |
that they do NOT block movement, regardless of the |
| 74 |
archetype. They are placed randomly. A style of |
| 75 |
"none" causes no decor objects to be generated. |
| 76 |
|
| 77 |
monsterstyle <style> Load /styles/monsterstyles/<style>, if it exists. |
| 78 |
If it doesn't exist, then it will look for a directory |
| 79 |
of that name. If it finds a directory, it will choose |
| 80 |
a style based on dungeon_level. It will pick the style |
| 81 |
with the name <name>_# with the # closest to the |
| 82 |
dungeon_level. Monster objects are copied from the |
| 83 |
style map, so you may form style maps with modified |
| 84 |
monsters which are weaker or stronger than the default |
| 85 |
archetype.A style of "none" causes no monsters to be |
| 86 |
generated. |
| 87 |
|
| 88 |
treasurestyle <style> (Special) If the style name chosen is contained |
| 89 |
in the lib/treasures file, it will use |
| 90 |
that for making treasures. If it is NOT |
| 91 |
in the lib/treasures file, it will look up |
| 92 |
/styles/treasurestyle/<style>, and pick random |
| 93 |
treasures from there. If <style> matches neither |
| 94 |
of these, it will generate treasures using the |
| 95 |
"chest" treasurelist. A style of "none" causes no |
| 96 |
treasures to be placed. |
| 97 |
|
| 98 |
=head2 Layout Parameters |
| 99 |
|
| 100 |
|
| 101 |
xsize <int> size of the map: if not set, random from 10 to 70 |
| 102 |
|
| 103 |
|
| 104 |
ysize <int> size of the map: if not set, random from 10 to 70 |
| 105 |
|
| 106 |
|
| 107 |
expand2x <bool> Do we double the size of the layout? This has |
| 108 |
the effect of increasing the corridor widths by about |
| 109 |
2x. Set it to a non-zero integer if this is desired. |
| 110 |
|
| 111 |
|
| 112 |
symmetry <sym> symmetry of the layout: You can cause the map generator |
| 113 |
to generate a symmetrical layout by using this flag. |
| 114 |
symmetry 0 random symmetry |
| 115 |
symmetry 1 no symmetry |
| 116 |
symmetry 2 symmetry about the vertical centerline |
| 117 |
symmetry 3 symmetry about the horizontal centerline |
| 118 |
symmetry 4 both 2 and 3 symmetry |
| 119 |
|
| 120 |
|
| 121 |
Layout Style: Parameter: Effect: |
| 122 |
|
| 123 |
|
| 124 |
maze maze_type 0: roomy (open space with some walls) |
| 125 |
1: sparse (maze with some larger open spaces) |
| 126 |
2: braided (few dead ends) |
| 127 |
3: closed (complete maze) |
| 128 |
default: random |
| 129 |
|
| 130 |
cave cave_type 0: very rough, mazelike |
| 131 |
1: round 1-2 space corridors, often elliptic |
| 132 |
2: more open, roundish |
| 133 |
3: wide open areas, roundish |
| 134 |
|
| 135 |
50% of the time a maze layout will be "doorified", meaning that doors |
| 136 |
will be placed at random in the maze. |
| 137 |
|
| 138 |
onion layoutoptions1 0 (default) Pick random options |
| 139 |
See "Onion Rooms" below for |
| 140 |
the rest of the options. |
| 141 |
|
| 142 |
onion layoutoptions2 0 (default) Pick a random number of |
| 143 |
"onion layers" |
| 144 |
|
| 145 |
=head2 Map generation parameters |
| 146 |
|
| 147 |
|
| 148 |
difficulty Set the map difficulty. Has no relation to the |
| 149 |
"difficulty" defined in common/*.c. |
| 150 |
If nonzero, this map and its descendants will |
| 151 |
have the same difficulty. If zero, it'll be set |
| 152 |
to the value of dungeon_level and incremeneted with |
| 153 |
each recursive map. |
| 154 |
|
| 155 |
difficulty_increase Sets how fast the difficulty increases. This value |
| 156 |
is a float - the default value is 1.0. Reducing |
| 157 |
This only applies to map without a default |
| 158 |
difficulty set (but that could change in the |
| 159 |
future). For each level of a map, the difficulty |
| 160 |
is set to depth * difficulty_increase. Setting |
| 161 |
this parameter to 0.5 (or other values between 0 |
| 162 |
and 1) is a way to have deep dungeons that do not |
| 163 |
increase in difficulty all that rapidly. |
| 164 |
|
| 165 |
|
| 166 |
dungeon_level Another way of setting the map difficulty. This |
| 167 |
has no relation to the "difficulty" defined in |
| 168 |
the common/*.c source code. The effect is to pick |
| 169 |
which monsters to use: for example, if the |
| 170 |
monsterstyle |
| 171 |
is "humanoid" and the dungeonlevel is 9, the style |
| 172 |
map /styles/monsterstyles/humanoid/humanoid_9 will be |
| 173 |
the style from which monsters are chosen. After the |
| 174 |
monsters are placed, the map |
| 175 |
difficulty is set according |
| 176 |
to the server's rule, for treasure purposes. |
| 177 |
|
| 178 |
dungeon_depth The map generated will have an exit to another |
| 179 |
random map of the same style if |
| 180 |
dungeon_level < dungeon_depth. The next random map |
| 181 |
will have dungeon_level incremented. If dungeon_level |
| 182 |
>= dungeon_depth, no exit to a more difficult map |
| 183 |
will be made. |
| 184 |
|
| 185 |
orientation How the exits look: |
| 186 |
0 random "orientation" |
| 187 |
1 player arrives in the map at |
| 188 |
a "stairs up", he goes to harder |
| 189 |
levels by finding a "stairs down" |
| 190 |
2 reverse of 1 |
| 191 |
3-6 exits are horizontal. In the future |
| 192 |
these will be made to make exits to |
| 193 |
rightward, leftward, north and south. |
| 194 |
|
| 195 |
origin_x <You shouldn't need to set this> The exit which |
| 196 |
leads back from this map will go to this x. |
| 197 |
|
| 198 |
origin_y Like origin_x |
| 199 |
|
| 200 |
random_seed Set the random seed number used. This number |
| 201 |
completely determines the random numbers: a map |
| 202 |
with the same random seed and other parameters |
| 203 |
will always produce exactly the same map. |
| 204 |
|
| 205 |
final_map When dungeon_level >= dungeon_depth, another exit |
| 206 |
isn't usually made. However, if final_map is set |
| 207 |
to a map's name, then an exit to this map will |
| 208 |
be made. |
| 209 |
|
| 210 |
exit_on_final_map The default action is to place an exit on |
| 211 |
the final map. When explicitly set to 'no' this will |
| 212 |
not place a return exit on the final_map. |
| 213 |
If you use this setting YOU MUST PROVIDE A WAY BACK IN THE FINAL MAP! |
| 214 |
|
| 215 |
=head2 Misc. Parameters |
| 216 |
|
| 217 |
decoroptions <option> Currently, ignored. Possibly in the future it |
| 218 |
will cause the decor to be patterned in some way, |
| 219 |
such as <put decor along walls> or <put decor |
| 220 |
in center of rooms> |
| 221 |
|
| 222 |
|
| 223 |
treasureoptions <opt> Parameterizes how the treasure is placed and protected. |
| 224 |
0 choose random treasure options |
| 225 |
1 concentrate the treasure on the map in a few locations |
| 226 |
2 hide the treasure behind hidden doors |
| 227 |
4 put the treasure in a chest which must be unlocked. |
| 228 |
(a key will be placed somewhere in the map, probably |
| 229 |
in a monster.) |
| 230 |
8 Put locked doors around the treasure (a key to each |
| 231 |
door will be placed in a monster or somewhere reachable |
| 232 |
by the player: one key on each side of the door.) |
| 233 |
In onion maps, the treasure is co-located with the |
| 234 |
exit to harder levels, so this makes the exit harder |
| 235 |
to get to. |
| 236 |
16 Trap the treasure. A trap from /styles/trapstyles/traps |
| 237 |
is selected and inserted into the treasure chest. |
| 238 |
32 sparse treasure. 1/2 as much treasure is generated. |
| 239 |
64 rich treasure. 2x as much treasure is generated. |
| 240 |
|
| 241 |
If option 1 is not set, options 2-16 are ignored. Options |
| 242 |
may be added together: treasureoptions 3 means treasure |
| 243 |
optons 1 and 2 are set. |
| 244 |

| 245 |

=head3 Onion Maps |
| 248 |
|
| 249 |
Onion rooms are like this: |
| 250 |
|
| 251 |
regular random |
| 252 |
centered, linear onion: bottom/right centered, nonlinear: |
