Walls as edges #2

Closed leftiness closed 8 years ago

leftiness commented 8 years ago

TLDR

Walls could be stored as edges instead of full hexagon points.

Notes

By using an extra property (and perhaps a separate HashSet<Wall>), walls could be stored as edges instead of full hexagon points. This would impact calculations like field of view and pathfinding.

Walls as edges might be something that's not handled in hex_math. Am I going to have something like Plane<Hex> where Hex { point: Point, other: Property } in hex_math? I think not. This hex_math would just be provided with arguments like startingPoint: Point and invalidPoints: HashSet<Point>.

Well, maybe it would be part of hex_math. Otherwise, would I provide a cant_go_northwest_from_these: HashSet<Point>? That kind of information is needed for fov, pathfinding, flooding...

Confirmed. #2 blocks #1, #3, #6.

Duplicated in #30.
