City generation

Overview

Procedural city spawning is implemented with MapGenerator.java, all classes in game/areas/MapGenerator/Buildings/ and all classes in game/areas/MapGenerator/pathBuilding/. The entry point to the generation code can be found in AtlantisGameArea.spawnCity(). The call flow of the major classes are as follows:

MapGenerator->BuildingGenerator->PathGenerator

Where '->' reads as 'instance is passed to'.

City Spawning

Testing

Verifying AtlantisGameArea.spawnCity(), and the spawnBuildings() and spawnPaths() methods work, is done visually. Through multiple game generates it was determined that buildings are scaled correctly according to the tile sizes specified in buildingSpecification.json, and place according to the positions determined by BuildingGenerator and PathGenerator. The following checks are done:

• Paths meet building door positions relatively accurately.
• Buildings do not overlap with other entities.
• Paths are not placed outside map bounds or through building placements.
