Hey, you just put me out of work! Replaced by an script. What's this world coming to! LOL!
Nice work, Rob. I might have to start using GIMP to take advantage of your expertise.

Certainly not my intent! Consider it more of an homage And personally, I'd rather build a tool to help me do what I need over doing it repeatedly... might be why I'm an engineer and not an artist
I just wanted to demonstrate that the script could also create a more old school style map - no just a semi-realistic one.

Don't you dare write a script to replace my maps, Rob!

I reckon there is two (at least) reasons to embrace scripting. One is that it gives you much more time to faff with the interesting details and two, you can change the basic floor plan and rerun it. I am an engineer over artist too and I always think that with extra scripting in the hands of an artists it ought to push the maps further beyond my ability to keep up.
You just wait until you get replaced by a computer in your job! Hah!
