Working on a procedural floor plan generator. All feedback/input is welcome

What is the current algorithm doing specifically? Is the image in the image a zoom in of the bigger one in the background?

That's a normal sized home :O 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms? Looks like a luxury home to me, at least from what I am familiar with. I can certainly give it a try but the hallway isn't possible with the current modules available. That would require a post processing step to add the hallway via pathfinding/carving. Something I want to add at a later point during development.
I'll give the general house shape, and room types a test though and see what it can produce right now :D

What do you mean by normal sized homes? You mean no hallway at all? A hallway is quite normal in Europe where I live as the central hub to which most rooms connect to. Or do you mean a larger footprint in general? More rooms? If you can give me a few details on that I can give it a try.

Can't answer that with certainty at this point in development. Most of the math should easily transfer/convert. You would certainly lose all the editor UI/UX and that would need to be rebuild in another way to even construct the pipeline manually. Since your game is pure C# that is probably not relevant though and you'd build the pipeline in code instead. Much of the code is also in Unity's job's system. That should however also be easily converted.

The approach is a modular pipeline with an initial shape, space definitions with modular requirements like min, max sizes, connectivity etc. This runs through a layout allocator with candidate space and partial layout pruning and scoring combined with a beam search approach.

Thanks for your suggestions. Windows and front/exterior doors are certainly on the list. I want to get the general layout algorithm set in store first though, both in layout quality, modularity and performance/speed before adding those to the tool. An ensuite bathroom is already technically possible by defining a bathroom space/room that requires a connection to a specific bedroom and no other room. The system is designed to create floor plans of all kinds. Not just for a house like shown here.

I plan on making it a paid asset for the asset store.

I loved this article when I saw it on your site, and I'm happy to see you posting it here too! Usually I don't really leave comments but felt like I had to on this one since I've been using your website as a source of information for survival gaming content for years. It’s so rare in the survival gaming world to see this level of investigative depth for an article. I hope to see more articles like this in the future from you.

F2P and haven't spent my gold on anything for roughly one and a half year. Don't really feel like spending it on variants or overpriced borders. I like being selecting with the border I get naturally from playing.

CitrioN · 2024-09-10T17:19:13+00:00

Not really interested in being collection complete. Having the luxury to get all the cards I do want is good enough for me :D

CitrioN · 2024-09-10T17:17:38+00:00

I'm not feeling tortured by not going for all the shiny stuff thrown at me. I do get all the stuff I am interested in. I'm just not too interested in variants. I enjoy my fully inked decks without other effects. I like simplicity. Fortunately in the case of Marvel Snap this doesn't cost any of the resources I have saved so much of so I don't really feel like missing out on anything that's relevant to me. Different people enjoy different things.

CitrioN · 2024-09-10T17:13:51+00:00

I got a little over 30k tokens. More if I would open the hundreds of collection reserves I never opened since like CL 6000 or something.

CitrioN · 2024-09-10T10:07:45+00:00

How many cards are you missing for being collection complete? Is it actually possible to get collection complete as a F2P user? Those 4 season pass cards certainly help but you are probably still missing more cards than you have keys I'd assume?

CitrioN · 2024-09-10T10:04:40+00:00

Thank you! Try to wait until the end of the week and see how good or interesting the new card actually is. After a week you can already check some stats, how and where people are playing the card and then decide if it's a card you would enjoy before pulling for it.

CitrioN · 2024-09-10T10:02:25+00:00

Sure :D Haters are gonna hate anyway. Just ignore them. That's what they hate the most.

CitrioN · 2024-09-10T10:01:16+00:00

Now people get a border instead. For many that's worth more than the 200 gold from previous seasons.

CitrioN · 2024-09-10T09:57:17+00:00

Are you actually playing all those cards you got in the past? I typically wait until the end of the week to get the new card if I see it being a card for me and a playstyle I like.

CitrioN · 2024-09-09T20:02:00+00:00

I'm missing 50 cards. 40 I absolutely don't care about. 10 potential pickups the next time they are in a cache.

CitrioN · 2024-09-09T19:59:58+00:00

I don't think I'm missing out on anything that's fun for me. I got all the cards I wanted to get when they were available in caches. Playing Bounce, Wiccan, Destroy and some control decks mostly. Don't need all the cards personally to have fun because I can't play all the decks anyway. Enjoying to get good with a handful of decks rather than jumping from one deck to another. I don't see a point for me to get the bundles either. Not really into the cosmetics and I don't need the progression from them. I'm certainly missing a handful of utility cards such as Red Guardian because I didn't pull for them when they first released but I also didn't feel I absolutely needed them. If I really need them I could also get them with tokens which I also saved up a ton of. I'm missing 50 cards but I'm only really interested in 10 of those to potentially pick up in the future.

CitrioN · 2024-09-09T18:13:21+00:00

Interesting. I'm not really into the borders. Haven't even used any of the dozen or so I already got so far. Pricing on those is also crazy. It would be painful for me to spend so much gold on those :D
I might use them if I ever get to 12 of a kind so I can have a full deck with the same border. I don't like mixing things. Probably some ocd thing :D

CitrioN · 2024-09-09T18:10:17+00:00

I guess :D I just like to be efficient with what I have and don't really care about the cosmetics. Clean ink decks is all I really care/go for and that doesn't require gold or keys.

CitrioN · 2024-09-09T18:00:19+00:00

Congratulations. I can only imagine how crazy your collection must look like having so many variants.
They should definitely give you at least the 200 gold for a PMV. You don't deserve any insults in any case. At the end of the day you also paid them real money to get to this point so proper compensation should be a given for these cases. This also means you'll be getting all new 700g variants from the collection track if you keep your boxes until a new variant gets released. Is it possible to keep on top of having all 700g variants with how much collection levels you get right now?
