The view from the cab, summer 1830. 🚂 #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #indiedev

Starting to shape up the core UI and town system in the new game. Panel collapses when not in use; trains now arriving in towns. Still WIP, but coming together.

The colouring of 2 I think works well for that vibe

Market village in autumn scene

Autumn market morning — little town/rail builder WIP. Procedural stone walls (PCG), painterly roofs, first pass smoke. More to come!

Devlog 6- Understanding Unreal PCG – Creating a Town Continuing my investigations in PCG and slowly getting my town to take shape. After the last devlog, my next step was to get rid of criss-crossing streets. Due to PCGEx helpful nodes, this turned out to be not too bad - once I got my head around the Path x Path Crossings node. I fed Main Road points in, along with the generated streets, and this node identifies ones that cross.

Continued digging into PCG and PCGEx, and slowly getting my town together.

Yes, I didn't have a problem. Downloaded the 5.6 branch on the 18th of May, and though initially UE did a bit of complaining, I didn't see any problems.
Not sure if I was just lucky with the nodes I'm using...

Devlog 5- Understand Unreal Engine PCG: Creating Dynamic Roads Think I’m starting to get my head round some of the PCG (and PCGEx) stuff, however it’s fair to say while I’m getting a handle on the concepts, there is still something of a gap b…

I'll go for A, looks really nice

Great thank you. Your London description really made me think through the challenges of non-grid style town generation. Thankfully I'm not looking at city scale, but the approach is definitely something I can learn from. deffo going to jump on the discord, cheers.

Thanks for the UE PCGEx talk - thoroughly enjoyed it. Looking forward to trying it out, though suspect it might be beyond me.
Wishlisted The Last Gig too, looks excellent. Ta!

"The Killingworth" - one of Stephenson’s early designs (0-4-0). First test model of our stylised train game look.
