bluemud atlas:

what is it:

Bluemud Atlas is a mini-project of Bluemud which is focused on using ascii-based map files to generate images, html, and code. This is useful for the following things:

• generate html/image atlas files of continents and towns so mudders and other coders can see what's where
• generate initial area code which helps in preventing bugs related to connecting rooms via exits

status:

Bluemud Atlas is currently functional and it's being used to generate atlas files for a new mud I'm working on. It's written in Python as one massive script (though I'm going to break it out into separate modules) and utilizes PIL for generating the map images.

The latest copy can be retrieved from our CVS repository. The modulename is "bluemudatlas". Details here.
