If you want to learn more about how fractal noise works and some other terrain generation techniques I strongly recommend this article by Red Blob Games. The texture data will be automatically filled with noise, using the parameters of the generator. It allows you to specify a noise generator and a texture.

We knew that we needed custom modifications for destructible terrain, dynamic lightning, and support for thousands of swarm monsters. Much of our custom tools needed tricks to pass the data around. One example is the debris particles interacting with 2D terrain. Tomasz Chabora (KoBeWi) is making all the things work properly.

Corrupted Game Files: Corrupted or missing game files within Broken Roads can lead to crashes, disrupting the seamless flow of data required for stable gameplay. Furthermore, this transition reduces load times, minimizes potential data access bottlenecks, and contributes to a more stable gameplay experience with fewer instances of crashes.

Data Analysis and Documentation: Chris was quick to point out that data takes the front seat when it comes to the work week in an M&A team. In this day and age, it's all about data-driven decision-making, no doubt about it. So, yes, you can bet that the M&A team's calendar is chock-full of data analysis.

Most of the teams have accepted new reality and are preparing to make the most out of uncertain terrain. You have to be prepared to intake data from multiple sources and maintain the basic capabilities. In other words, you will be able to measure at the campaign level, but some data might be missing, especially for smaller campaigns.

Custom data. As it was quite a requested feature, TileSet now support custom data layers. Each custom data layer can be assigned a type and a name. Once this is done, each tile of the TileSet can be assigned a value for each custom data layer. Terrains are the more powerful replacement of autotiles. Coming next.

However, it will include one of most requested features that the previous lesson was missing – tiles of different terrain types, and how that can affect move cost. Tiles that are considered difficult terrain cost an additional 5 feet per tile, so the same combatant could only cross 3 such tiles in a single stride action.

Block - a tile which the unit can not traverse (could be because the type of terrain is incompatible, or because an opponent is there). Assuming the point is actually on the board (and any space that could be occupied based on size), then we give the movement a cost based on the type of terrain at that point.

TGGW is a linear dungeon, but backtracking to visit certain dungeon features is quite useful at times, so it also includes a convenient map list accompanied by the characters for notable features at that depth--NPCs, stairs, teleporters, mechanical valves, terrain that might contain something… (there is also a key elsewhere on the UI).
