# Maze Tile Set

![maze tiles](https://raw.github.com/rhdunn/maze-tileset/master/sand/tiles.png)

The maze tile set is a collection of images (tiles) that can be used to

construct mazes.

The source for the tiles is in SVG format. They can be converted to PNG by running:

	$ rsvg-convert -w 32 -h 32 /.svg > /.png

Alternatively, you can use the provided makefile which will convert all the

tiles to PNG by running:

	$ make

This will also build the sand/tiles.png file.

## Tile List

The list of tiles is provided in the `tiles.lst` file. This list does not

include the file extension and is relative to the `maze` folder.

This list is used by the tile maps, and is a 0-based index list (so 0 is the

first tile in the list, not 1).

The `sand/tiles.png` file is an image of 7x7 tiles, with each tile being 32x32

pixels. This matches the `tiles.lst` file, starting in the top-left corner

and moving left-to-right, top-to-bottom. The last cell does not have an allocated

tile image.

## Tile Depth

A maze with a tile depth of 2 (that is, it has 2 values -- 0=floor and 1=wall)

can be rendered by displaying the tile in the `sand/tile.lst` file that

corresponds to the tile depth value.

The `tiles.16` and `tiles.256` files are comma separated lists of numbers that

reference tiles in `sand/tiles.lst` for a tile depth of 16 and 256 respectively.

They are used to convert a map like:

	11

	10

into a map like:

	8 5

	7 0

that can then be rendered using the tiles referenced in `tiles.lst`.

The tile values can be calculated by adding the values of adjacent wall tiles

(value 1) according to the following values:

	tiles.16 : tiles.256

	---------:----------

	  1      : 16 1  64

	4 + 8    :  4 +   8

	  2      : 32 2 128

If the adjacent value goes outside the maze map, it is treated as a floor

tile (value 0) and thus is not added to the tile depth value.

For example, the top-left corner of the example map above has the following

adjacent tiles:

	+ 8

	2

Thus, it has an index value of `2 + 8 = 10`. This index in `tiles.16` has the

tile value of 8 which corresponds to the `corner_tl` tile in `tiles.lst`.
