+ Next model is tile and map targeted
+ 3D tiles kind of finalized, extra tile textures for extra tile varieties continues
+ Seamless tile textures are carried out
+ Seamless tile texture transitions are additionally in (pic)
– Some restrictions in what number of various kinds of tiles can exist in a single chunk of the map, which is 15×15 tiles
– If there are too many sorts of tile textures in a bit, a checker marks it out with pink containers within the map editor
+ Map technology now makes use of QGIS, which may output heightmaps and roadmaps on the right scale. This reduces many processing steps
+ Roadmaps from QGIS are pixel-perfect however nonetheless require some processing and extra capabilities in map technology earlier than they can be utilized
– Map technology utilizing tangram heightmapper and literal display grabs of Google maps roads has been binned
+ With batch processing, technology of base maps for all landmasses on Earth is achievable
– Currently have 316 maps within the docket, prepared for additional processing and testing
+ Now that tiles are just a little extra fleshed out, work for particular biomes can start
+ Automatic node technology is within the works. These will assist the AI navigate in addition to routinely set begin positions, assets, and map exit factors
+ Lots of adjustments to the info editor almost about the tile information
+ YouTube channel soundtrack playlist is right here:

+ Version 0.06 launched and is accessible right here: https://balancedbreakfast.itch.io/bombs-and-bullets

+ Water height-based rendering added, shallow water, nearer to the shore, is extra clear, whereas deeper water, is extra opaque. (pic)
+ Multiple sorts of water can exist on a single map (pic)
– nonetheless, attributable to rendering points, two various kinds of water textures can’t be adjoining as a result of there cannot be transition.
+ Props (that are 2D) can now relaxation in water (a 3d aircraft) and be appropriately obscured by one another (pic)
+ Tiles and water could have metalness and smoothness values (not textures) added. They have coloration and regular textures.
+ Tile props, which is grass for the time being, has been fastened and may co-exist with water. (pic)
– Yes, the present grass is ugly, that might be fastened as soon as the workload tapers off a bit.
+ Tile height-based tinting added. (pic)
+ Basic performance for tile decals added. This might be used for roads, blood, craters and different issues (pic)
+ Map nodes, which gamers and AI will battle over and work together with, have been created.
+ Map node batch import operate added.
+ Stat editor up to date to accommodate these varied editions.
+ Road tile technology workflow has been accomplished.
+ Road tile decal work has begun.
+ Hammered out how tile decals work, which might be useful for street technology.
+ Exploring what sorts of tiles are wanted for sure biomes for map technology.

+ Make maker decal import is carried out.
+ Roadmaps can now be resolved and imported as decals  has been carried out.
– The implementation of the roadmap decision signifies that the street decal tiles will seemingly must remade.
– There’s a way that actually yields all doable preparations of the street, so we’ll simply make all doable variants.
+ Map node import csv now has textual content portion separated out as a i18n file. This will assist with including languages in future, and mirrors our UI work.
+ Map importer can now learn textual content and information connected to particular nodes.
– Some nodes on maps could have city names and inhabitants connected to them, which can have an effect on AI habits and gameplay in future.
+ Conditions could be set in map node csv in order that commonplace units of map nodes could be generated for maps.
+ Biomes launched, a biome is simply a regular set of directions for the heightmap to tilemap technology course of.
+ Arctic biome created
+ 316 maps, principally within the Greenland, Nunavut, Franz Josef Land and Severnaya Zemlya.
– These maps are all desolate arctic maps, so is an effective set for a check of map creation nodes, biomes, and batch processing.
+ The large quantity of future maps would require a separate map pack.
+ The core sport in future will primarily include maps with cities and such and fewer full wilderness.
+ Most core capabilities for 0.07 and even 0.075 have been carried out. Which is 1 month forward of schedule.

+ Streamlining map technology workflow. Created about 37 maps in 2 hours, however they’re all wilderness.
– Per-map creation environment friendly will rise tremendously as we transfer into the North American and Eurasian mainland. Coastal maps take extra work.
– The Ultimate objective is to create maps overlaying your complete world.
+ Gonna end up this spherical of map creation and go repair the decals subsequent.
+ Two biomes created, Tundra and Polar. 0.07 will solely have these two on prime of the default one.
+ Map entities import operate can now have circumstances like ‘do not place when tile is water’.
+ Per map map tinting operate added. Adds just a little little bit of visible selection.
+ Bugged the Love2D devs to repair an issue with the .dds file format. They lastly stated they’d repair it within the subsequent model.
+ All core options for model 0.07 and 0.075 have been accomplished. Just wants to repair bugs and grind out some maps.
+ Work on model 0.08, which revolves round altering the entire navigation system to movement maps, has begun.

+ Remade the 6 maps of Crete utilizing the brand new workflow however with roads. Looks cool, however the roads are nonetheless a bit bizarre.
+ map rely: 109
+ Made vital progress with street decal technology. Redid all of the street decals too. (see progress in pic)
– Gonna enhance the street decal design and higher normals at a later date.
+ Added a very cool debugger for street tiles and different decal work.
+ Work with switching pathfinding over to flowmaps continues. Progress is nice, however would possibly want one other 2 months or so.
+ Outputted model 0.07 for launch, however there is a bug with the discharge construct, so we have to iron that out first.
+ With luck, launch of 0.07 this week.
+ 0.075, which can simply be bug fixes and extra maps, could or could not occur.
