Better terrain visualization #37

Open Trilarion opened 6 years ago

Trilarion commented 6 years ago

Compared to the flat 2D display now, some nice, isometric 2D might be looking much better without needing to go to full 3D. Look at some other open source games how they do it and make it similar. For example Widelands has been mentioned (https://sourceforge.net/p/freerails/feature-requests/64/).

Not sure if this should already be part of #8. At least it is totally client specific. One might even want to switch between a top view and an isometric view.

If there is a library for isometric 2D views available without much overhead, I would prefer to use it.
