Minetest Mapper C++
===================
.. image:: https://github.com/minetest/minetestmapper/workflows/build/badge.svg
:target: https://github.com/minetest/minetestmapper/actions/workflows/build.yml

Minetestmapper generates an overview image from a Minetest map.
A port of minetestmapper.py to C++ from https://github.com/minetest/minetest/tree/0.4.17/util.
This version is both faster and provides more features than the now obsolete Python script.
2012-09-02 19:46:12 +02:00
Minetestmapper ships with a colors.txt file for Minetest Game, if you use a different game or have
many mods installed you should generate a matching colors.txt for better results.
The `generate_colorstxt.py script
<./util/generate_colorstxt.py>`_ in the util folder exists for this purpose, detailed instructions can be found within.

exhaustive:
| Select if database should be traversed exhaustively or using range queries, available: *never*, *y*, *full*, *auto*
| Defaults to *auto*. You shouldn't need to change this, but doing so can improve rendering times on large maps.
| For these optimizations to work it is important that you set ``min-y`` and ``max-y`` when you don't care about the world below e.g. -60 and above 1000 nodes.
