The original authors added furtherĬonstraints to create several distinctive categories of road patterns. Up to the developer: I made the decision for roads to simply tend towards areas of high population density. The implementation of globalGoals is entirely GlobalGoals which decides what, if any, new segments should branch out from it in the future.
The newly placed segment is then fed into If the segment is found to be compatible, it is added to the list of placed segments S. LocalConstraints checks the segment for compatibility with all previously placed segments and may modify its geometry if necessary, forĮxample to join the end of the segment to a nearby junction. In each iteration of the algorithm the segment with the smallest ti is removed from Q. Geometrical properties of the segment, and qi - any additional metadata associated with the segment. R is a road segment with parameters: ti - the time delay until the segment is placed in the world, ri - the Reading the pseudo-code: initialize priority queue Q with a single entry: r(0, r0, q0)įoreach r(tj, rj, qj) produced by globalGoals(ri, qi) The post mentioned above do a good job of explaining the structure of the algorithm. Support for pathfinding between two locations on the road network has also been added. The demo above is the result of implementing this form of the algorithm with some of the ‘global goals’ and ‘local goals’ suggested by Parish and Is well-written and accessible, however the rules defined for the algorithm (defined as an L-system)Īre hard to interpret for a layperson and, as argued here, can be transformed into an equivalent The developers followed a method described in Parish and Müller’s paper: Procedural Modelling of Cities (2001). Since seeing the city generation from the shelved Introversion Software game “Subversion” inĪction, I’ve wanted to to try writing a basic procedural city generator myself.
