|
|
## 🐛 **BUGS FIXED:**
|
|
|
|
1. ✅ BiomeSystem not being used → Initialization order fixed
|
|
2. ✅ chunkSize undefined → Added to constructor
|
|
3. ✅ Double terrain rendering → Added safety check
|
|
4. ✅ Old terrain rendering → Skipped in biome mode
|
|
5. ✅ Chunks not visible → Debug borders added
|
|
6. ✅ Water not rendering → Connected RiverSystem/LakeSystem
|
|
7. ✅ Features on water → Skip feature placement on water tiles
|
|
8. ✅ Structure overlap → Minimum distance check
|
|
9. ✅ Roads on water → Water avoidance algorithm
|
|
10. ✅ Performance lag → Chunk-based optimization

## 🎯 **KEY LEARNINGS:**
|
|
|
|
### **Design Insights:**
|
|
1. **Initialization Order Matters:** BiomeSystem needed before terrain generation
|
|
2. **Chunk Size Critical:** 50x50 tiles = optimal balance
|
|
3. **Modular = Flexible:** Independent systems easier to debug/extend
|
|
4. **Transitions Natural:** Color blending creates realistic boundaries
|
|
5. **Performance = Priority:** 60 FPS non-negotiable
|
|
|
|
### **Development Process:**
|
|
1. **Plan First:** Clear session goals prevented scope creep
|
|
2. **Test Often:** Caught bugs early
|
|
3. **Document Everything:** Easy to resume after breaks
|
|
4. **Iterate Quickly:** Small sessions = faster progress
|
|
5. **Debug Visibly:** Red chunk borders helped tremendously
|
