My main insight was constraining the WFC algo is important so it doesn't get stuck. Specifically in my case, the algo works top-down. So it tackles generations on higher z-levels first and then trickles down.

Only with this constraint did it work. Giving it full freedom always made it stuck.

If I'm understanding your terms correctly, I did use a "combined" style. As in, I maintain control over some parts but let the WFC algo fill in the rest. So I define key features of the map manually/determined code, and then let the algo roam free.

Hello just found your account. Lovely 3D pixel art. I use WFC for my deformable battlefields. It was hell but I got it working well in the end.

If you are still looking for someone to talk shop, lmk.

Mars Tactics - Dev Update 2025 Q2 - Steam News Hey guys, thanks for checking in on the game again. This quarter is when the strategy layer design finally came together for me. The latest build has not yet been tested, but based on my own time with...

Big update about strategy layer + new video

If your soldiers are captured, they'll end up at enemy labor camps. These are secret locations you can locate and liberate. Tough missions, but good rewards.

During the battle, as you liberate prisoners (green arrows in this screenshot) they become controllable soldiers.

Part 2 about undercover agents. They spawn in battle disguised as civilian workers.

Stealth is not a huge focus of this game, but this is just a little mechanic to further connect strategy layer actions with combat.

Andor has nurtured my soul.

First look at Infiltration, a mechanic for both factions. Simulates the clandestine aspects of an insurgency and counter-insurgency.

Sneak in agents, perform ops, get various buffs to help during battle or in the strategy layer.
