Dungeon generator that produces a 2D-array of different values that can be used to create a dungeon for a game. The script is written in Perl and generates a gif image of the dungeon.

The values used for the algorithm in the 2D array is the following:

• 1 = room
• 2 = road
• 3 = Flood fill, temporary used, not used in the resulting map (array).
• 4 = (not used)
• 5 = Player spawn (adds a position in the middle of a room)
• 6 = Boss spawn (adds a position in a room as far away as possible from player)

The image used in the script is just used to represent the actual dungeon. In a game, the 2D array would be used and the different values in the array would be parsed.

The result of the script can look like this: [dungeon.gif]

The dungeon generator will be used in Qake voxel-engine that can be found here: https://www.assetstore.unity3d.com/#!/content/68150

And the result implemented in Qake voxel engine using the output from the script (though ported to C#) can look like this: [qake_dungeon.png]

perl genmap.pl && open dungeon.gif

The algorithm is very basic but produces very good random dungeons. The process is as follows.

• Generate rooms of random sizes and make sure that they don't overlap and also got some distance between them.
• Add doors in the middle of each room.
• From each door, try to draw a road of a certain size outwards until it hits either a road or another room.
• Flood fill each room of the map. Store the biggest flood filled map and remove the rest.
