Terrain generation


Saving and loading implemented, now most important task is terrain generation. I have 3 perlin noise class and couple generation functions. I am trying for cool looking terrain with mountains, interesting caves and so on. Its not easy and now I am a bit stuck.

More screens:

Looks better. but far from perfect.

Saving and loading


What's new in version 0.2.1:

  1. Added smooth camera. 
  2. Fixed bug where at position -0 block was indestructible. It occurred due transformation form float to int and for example -0.5 became just 0.
  3. Saving and loading world from hard disk drive.

Now what left is some menu updates to support loading and saving, different world saving and game will be ready for early alpha testing for public.

Game generates infinity world in both sides. Its all generated in memory so if you wander to far its starts to lag a bit, it will be fixed when I will add save load features.
