Dungeon Architect

[Ali Akbar]

Past two days I've been experimenting with an alternative to the snap build process where the contents of the intermediate levels are streamed in, then they are moved to the main persistent level and the intermediate level is deleted. (to avoid creation of lots of streamed in levels). However in some cases it crashes the engine due to some tick errors in another thread and we cannot have that.

The world composition method (with intermediate level files) works fine and I'll work on finalizing that

I got snap dungeon crashing on me

Can this be used to procedurally place foliage, rocks, branches, and other natural assets?

Our project doesn't need any dungeons. Just would like to have such natural elements randomly placed when a player starts a level. The map size would be 1km x 1km.

I fixed the issues with the Snap builder and I'll have a new build soon

Created a new type of volume to replace markers:

You can use this to manually add/remove doors and more

Thanks for the info [MENTION=28980]Ali Akbar[/MENTION], that' exactly what I need, I can't seem to find that volume type in my version, I got the latest version from the marketplace. Is this an upcoming feature or something wrong with my installation?

Has anyone attempted to use this great looking tool with the Modular Neighborhood pack? Any issues before I pick up Dungeon Architect?

[Konflict]

[MENTION=231784]fender21[/MENTION] as long as you have these static meshes to be placed on the map to create dungeon-like maps, it should work in a snap. While i have never tested this combination of the assets, the dungeon architect examples should give a decent impression and promise that most of the modular asset packs should be compatible with the plugin with very little to no efforts. You just configure it up and done.

The real challenge here in your case would be to actually get a rather sophisticated map (this entire neighborhood area) to be proc built like the one on the Modular Neighborhood videos you have seen. But if you just want to create house interiors or some smaller parts only, that might just be possible right away, tho it will require work on your part to actually get the right item placement rules to be created (eg various kitchen templates etc).

This city builder also appears to be a promising feature of the dungeon builder, tho i'm not sure if there's any example regarding the usage.

Hi,
first of all, this is an awesome plugin.

But i'm having a bit of a few difficulties. I'm trying to create a selector for corner walls, so i can spawn corner pieces instead of normal wall pieces (because if i use normal wall pieces in multi story dungeon tiles, i get a lot of flickering).
Unfortunately half of the wall markers report their id as a huge negative number and cell type unknown and location and size of the cell is [0,0]. If i try using the is room selector (as it was in the examples) i get this (unfortunately something went wrong with the image upload (database error) so there's a imagebin link):

Anybody else has this problem or is there an easy way to select the corners of rooms?

Thanks
