squadmc-maps

repository for SquadMC holding the only the map image files. Also includes maps for PostScriptumMC.

Usage

SquadMC works with external maps hosted on maps.squadmc.ende.pro. However, if you wish to host and serve them locally, follow these steps:

0. npm install -g yarn
1. yarn install
2. yarn run mapdata
3. yarn run serve
4. adapt the baseUrl variable in the squadmc repository (squadmc/src/App.vue), to whatever http-server tells you

Adding new maps

To learn how to add new maps to this repository yourself, please check out this wiki page: https://github.com/Endebert/squadmc-maps/wiki/How-to-add-new-maps-to-SquadMC

I'm looking forward to your contributions!

Generating / Getting Heightmaps

I recently figured that some of the Squad Maps provided by the tool are outdated,
so I tried taking matters into my own hand and fixing it, without much success.

Would be amazing if you would be able to tell me how you get the heightmaps etc.
so I can make a fork of this project with all updated maps + heightmaps.

Where i can get the minimap image

I want to know that where you get these images of maps.

The guide is lacking in areas

• What is the source of hDim?
• How do we find and add locations?
• Add instructions to merge layers in the GIMP before tiling.

Map updates

Will these maps be updating at all? At v14 we have a new official map as well as a few changes to older maps.

Add Cache-Control immutable

Adding cache-control immutable for cachable assets makes sure Firefox does not try to revalidate them with the server.

For example:
Cache-Control: public, max-age=31536000, immutable

New tool for automating this process

Hi guys,

As part of a recent project, I created a heightmap ripper for Squad that can even extract heightmaps from mods. I hope it will be useful for you guys and save you some time.

https://github.com/williamvenner/squad-mortar-helper

Click "Heightmaps" at the top, then click "Select...", choose a map from the game/mod and click "Export as PNG" to get the grayscale version of the heightmap (PNG, 16-bit luminance)

Here's Naboo from Galactic Contention:

Branch Permissions

I have some local branches for a number of missing maps. I.E. Fallujah and Manic, are you able to add me to the permissions so I can supply you with a pull request for the tiles/heightmaps etc.

Question: Calculating map sizes in PS

I'd like to contribute, but I have precisely 0 idea on how you go about making accurate map size calculations for Post Scriptum, is there a resource for the methodology available somewhere?

Provide base height maps?

Would it be possible to get the original gray height maps? I don't know a way to convert the RGB maps back into a usable height map given the non-standard coloring used.

Map updates

Just wanted to request a map update, I can't say for certain on map changes on current maps but the new map Muhata needs to be added to the list, if possible.
