==World Generation==
When a New game is created, the local map is randomly generated. The local map is composed of tiles, where each tile represents one in-game location. Every tile/location is the same size. Currently the player character cannot move past the boundaries of the local map.

Newly generated POIs are hidden to the player (denoted by the '''?''' marker on the [[Map]]) and randomly placed onto the Local Map, becoming a part of the generated Biomes. Once the player visits their location and discovers what kind of POI it is, their icon will change and their name will become revealed on the Map.


The local map will always contain several revealed POIs which are known to the player character, such as the [[Towns]] and their surrounding tiles like the Mill or Winery, or the Abbey of the Holy Revelation. Location of these tiles is randomized aswell, but they follow a loose pattern - for example [[Osbrook]] is always on the western side of the map, while [[Mannshire]] is always on the southeastern side and the Abbey is always in the north/northeastern side. [[Dungeons]] are generated semi-randomly - they are always generated a certain distance from Towns. For example, your first (easiest) dungeon will never be on the far side of the map. Forests and Fields are generated randomly and the roads are placed connecting important POIs.<br>

Points of Interest, or POIs, describe interesting locations on the Local Map. A global map is going to be added in the future updates (see Development roadmap).

Local map


Newly generated POIs are hidden to the player (denoted by the ? marker on the Map) and randomly placed onto the Local Map, becoming a part of the generated Biomes. Once the player visits their location and discovers what kind of POI it is, their icon will change and their name will become revealed on the Map.

Points of Interest

  • Hermit's Hut
  • Leprosarium
