random map Covering all tiles with an object based on class in a random map

[andy5995]

This is for https://github.com/0ad-matters/community-maps-2/issues/134

This works but I think there must be a better way. It seems crude, and the object (a placement obstruction) covers most, but not all, the tiles. Any suggestions?

The usage of createArea() was already in the map script. The new code is the call to createDecoration()
 

    g_Map.log("Freezing water");
    createArea(
        new MapBoundsPlacer(),
        [
            new TerrainPainter("alpine_ice_01"),
            new TileClassPainter(clIce),
            new SmoothElevationPainter(ELEVATION_SET, heightSeaGround - 0.1, 0),
        ],
        stayClasses(clWater, 0));

    createDecoration(
        [
            [new SimpleObject("obstructors/placement", 1, 1, 0, 0)],
        ],
        [
            scaleByMapSize(600, 1800),
        ],
        stayClasses(
            clIce, 0,
        )
    );

So this works, got some help from @Jammyjamjamman and @trompetin17

 

    g_Map.log("Freezing water");
    const IceArea = new createArea(
        new MapBoundsPlacer(),
        [
            new TerrainPainter("alpine_ice_01"),
            new TileClassPainter(clIce),
            new SmoothElevationPainter(ELEVATION_SET, heightSeaGround - 0.1, 0),
        ],
        stayClasses(clWater, 0));

    for (const position of IceArea.getPoints())
        g_Map.placeEntityPassable("obstructors/placement", 0, position);

We need a better tooltip for the Obstructors. Something like, "<Building> cannot be placed on this terrain."

But the map generates very slow so I'm abandoning this method.

How slow is it?

Longer than a minute on a large map.
