Question regarding map format #8

Open wuschel opened 5 years ago

wuschel commented 5 years ago

Hi there,

please take my apologies if this is not the right format to ask a question about the source code (If not, where should I place this post?).

I am wondering how the map/terrain encoding works in Xconq. I was trying to understand the file earth-50km.g that is located in xconq/lib/. Unfortunatley, I could not decode how terrain encoding is done.

Could anyone point me to design documents, or perhaps the relevant parts in the source code? I am a bit lost -

Cheers!
