Erosion: "off"|"v1" gate (default off, pending the developer's gate). Output-only: applied to the render map after detail, before the crater carve; the classify path reads pre-erosion heights, so biomes/water stay byte-identical (verified: OFF run bit-identical to the task-14 reference; ON run BIOM/WBID identical to OFF). Governors: droplet count / lifetime / per-cell carve cap (ledger-enforced, thrown on violation). Sea clamp: below-sea cells read-only, land never carved below sea+margin — rendered coastline provably fixed (asserted per generation). Crater excluded at 1.2×R. Deterministic from resolvedSeed+9271 (PCG32). New EROS blueprint section (writer/parser/harness/format doc). Supersedes the reverted D8 approach with the organic droplet model.

/Tools
Offline developer utilities. Nothing here ships. These generate the source data that /Server
and /Client later consume, which keeps world-generation logic out of the shipped client.
The 2D world generator
Script: Tools/Scripts/MapGenerator.cs · Scenes: Tools/Scenes/MapPreview.tscn and
Scenes/MapCaptureTool.tscn
Builds the topographical and logistical foundation of the island before any 3D exists.
- Resolution is config-driven, from
ServerConfig.json'sMapProfile:4K/6K/8K/10K→ 4096 / 6144 / 8192 / 10240. Shipped default is 8K. 1 pixel = 1 in-game metre = 1 voxel footprint. (TheMapSizefield initialiser in the script says 4096, but it is overwritten from config before use.) - Topography: FastNoiseLite plus distance-falloff maths for a guaranteed mainland island, a mountain spine, dynamic temperature-driven sea level, and an impact crater pushed into the northern coast (carved at 80 % of its radius so a landbridge always survives).
- Water bodies: the classified water promoted into explicit blueprint data (ocean + labeled
lakes with transitional per-body levels —
WBID/WBTB/WSRFsections), plus priority-flood basin diagnostics. TheSkipRoadsconfig toggle turns a full ~26-min generation into a ~80 s road-less iteration cycle. - Logistics:
AStarGrid2Dpathfinding producing a looping continental highway, a branch to the mountain hub, and county roads daisy-chained outward with Prim's algorithm. Paths are decimated (Ramer–Douglas–Peucker) then smoothed (4 Chaikin passes). - Zoning: biome mapping and tiered town/POI placement by slope, temperature and proximity.
⚠️ A* is the known bottleneck
The grid is one node per pixel — 67 million nodes at 8K — and the weight-setup pass walks every
one of them. A full generation can stall long enough that runs get abandoned. await yields are
sprinkled through the road stage, but they cannot interrupt a single engine-side GetPointPath call,
so they only help between paths. Expect a regeneration to take minutes, or to need abandoning.
Outputs — written to user://, not into the project
| File | What it is |
|---|---|
MapData_Seed_<seed>.dat |
The binary blueprint the server reads — v2 tagged container (~336 MB at 8K; contract in Core/Scripts/BLUEPRINT_FORMAT.md) |
MapData_Seed_<seed>_v1.dat |
The same content in the legacy v1 format (~512 MB), dual-written as a safety net until a future removal task |

Running it
Open Tools/Scenes/MapPreview.tscn and press F6. It is also the project's main scene, so
pressing F5 anywhere runs this — which is why F5 regenerates your world instead of starting the
game. Use Scenes/MapCaptureTool.tscn when you specifically want the full-resolution PNG.
Rules
- No client dependencies. Nothing here may reference UI, player controllers or shaders in
/Client. - Data out, nothing in. Tools emit
.dat/.png/.json; they never write to a live server save. - No magic numbers. Distances and radii scale off
MapSizeor the derivedscaleFactor, so the generator behaves the same at every profile.
