DungeonGenerator Additions
 
I know that the Dungeon Generator was just released recently, and very few people have been able/tried/wanted to figue it out, but I have been working with it for a little while now, and I thought of some dungeon ideas for the server I work on.
The manager liked the ideas, so I started work on them, but I ran into a few problems that I think should be realized, and maybe fixed.

Tileset Template
According to the document about the DungeonGenorator, all servers making dungeons need to use their own tiles(duh).
Someone needs to make an easy to follow template for dungeon tiles that isn't so confusing, with bright colors and stuff so you can easily see what is what, because when I was trying to use the default tiles, it was hard to see what was what because it was so dark!

Tile Location Configuration
I noticed that you can set the arrays for the location of your tiles in the editor. (Like, walln=0x0,0xAA etc)
I think that this needs to be worked on, because when I put in my values and tried it, it was all messed up, because my walls were a few tiles shorter than the default ones...
It should be made so that it can check somehow how big it is or something, so that it doesn't mess up.

Map Creator
There should be some option for the DungeonGen to create a map and minimap. (I dunno, it may already do this, but I don't know)

Links
Maybe an option to place a link to another level? Like, I could have it place a link to the overworld of my server with an option?

More Dungeon Styles
This isn't really needed, but maybe more dungeon styles could be created? =/

I got bored and made myself a template...
It is almost perfect, and the few errors that are there won't hurt anyone... =/

Color Code:
Yellow= top/bottom of walls
Red= corners of walls
White/Black= floor
Any other color= wall

I dunno if this will help anyone other than me, but I posted it anyway...

i don't know what dungeongenerator is but i think i loaded it once a long time ago. i remember it looking a lot like the graal levelgen or something. can somebody tell me exactly what it does?

no for configuration, if you dont have an equal ammount of tiles that the wall should have, then it should NOT work since stefan would have to recode the whole thing to fix that, it's fine the way it is i think

map creater - just auto gen a map by pressing m in the level editer and resize it for a minimap

links - are you too lazy to manually add one small link? x_X

But... Say my playerworld used certain tiles, and the ones for Graal2002 look odd and deformed when I use the bodies for my playerworld(or something), and I wanted to use the default cave tiles from pics1.png... The walln on the cave tiles is 2x3 tiles(I think), and the walln on the G2002 tiles is like, 3x6 or something, it gets deformed... =/
I just think it would allow for more customizability, but I guess it really isn't needed that much...

Yea, I knew that, but... =/ I dunno... It would be a lot quicker for it to just auto-gen and configure a map so that it makes one and put the script in each of the levels to set your map to the one it generated...

Yes... =/
But lets say I had lots of links at the top, bottom, left and right sides of my dungeon? =/
