the Kowloon Walled City inspired Hackers Sleepless Cty (Hax Nuit) is loaded with mazes
the underground area is a series of tunnels and passages that are maze-like and the city above has around 900 apartments which are maze-like with some open apartments and stairs and holes to move between floors
there are many types of mazes and i’d like to include some traditional mazes in the street level shops (some building have the first two floors available as shop space, so i might try to make a two level maze!) =)
because working in the near-completed city gets frustrating (camming is uber tight), i made templates of each shop space and will create the mazes on a new SoaS instance. then i can export each as an XML and import them into the city
to help layout the mazes, i used an online maze generator and then re-sampled the output images to a larger size to use as a guide texture (re-sample using “nearest neighbor” to keep the edges crisp)
once these are imported, i’ll make them look like shops complete with closed doors and boarded up openings along the outside walls
some mazes will be simple
some mazes are harder
the blue ball is set to the centre of the sim
gee, this is going to take some time
mazes, always fun!
I have a maze generator in SL… you just drop the data from an online maze generator into the script, and it builds itself. i’ll have to come see how well it works in OpenSim or Kitely soon :)

try it with sim-on-a-stick! and you can in Kitely two for free (i think it’s one region and two hours free a month)
and read some back posts for the hints on things i need you to script! =p
