48th procedural texture: brick-offset ring outlines. Even
and odd rows are shifted by half a cell width so each ring
interlocks visually with its neighbors above and below —
the classic chainmail-armor pattern. Each pixel is tested
against the nearest ring center; if its distance lies
inside [ringR - strokeW/2, ringR + strokeW/2] it's
painted as the ring color, otherwise background.
Useful for armor textures (mail tunics, helms, gauntlets),
metallic fabric set dressing on guard NPCs, and dungeon
gate/grate textures. Default ring radius 5 on a 14x10
brick spacing reads cleanly at 256x256 without aliasing.
53rd procedural mesh primitive. Builds a watertight A-frame
tent:
• two sloped roof panels meeting at a ridge that runs along
the X axis
• two triangular gables sealing the ends
• optional inverted-V door notch carved out of the +X gable
(parameterized by doorH and doorW; either set to 0 disables
the cutout for a solid gable)
• bottom face for collision-bake watertightness
Useful set dressing for Horde encampments, troll camps,
Defias bandit hideouts, scout/quartermaster overlooks, and
generic outdoor quest hubs.
Default footprint 1.6 x 1.0 with 0.9 ridge height and a
0.5 x 0.4 door notch — all dimensions overridable on the CLI.
47th procedural texture: knit fabric V-stitch — each stitch
occupies a cellW x cellH cell holding the V-shape made by
two diagonal strokes meeting at the apex (cellW/2, 0) and
dropping to the cell's bottom corners. Cells tile contiguously
in both axes giving the iconic chevron-zigzag appearance of
knitted fabric stitches.
Useful for sweater fabric, woolly NPC clothing, blanket
textures, mitten/scarf set dressing, dwarven knitwork.
Defaults to 16x12 cells with 2-px stroke width.
58th procedural mesh: 5-box double archway — 3 vertical posts
(left / shared center / right) plus 2 horizontal lintels each
spanning one opening. Pairs with the existing single
--gen-mesh-archway for plaza approaches, double-door tomb
fronts, formal garden entrances, paired temple entries.
Defaults to 1.40m × 2 openings with 2.40m opening height
(~3.16m total width × 2.60m height including lintels).
Splits the 138-line static-local kArgRequired array (the list
of flags requiring positional args) into a new
cli_arg_required.{hpp,cpp} module with extern linkage. Then
moves the three meta handlers that depended on it out of
main.cpp into cli_introspect.cpp:
- --validate-cli-help (uses the array for self-check)
- --version / -v (3-line printf)
- --help / -h (1-line passthrough)
main.cpp shrinks by 191 lines (677 to 486). Both the early
missing-argument detector in main() and --validate-cli-help
in cli_introspect.cpp now share one source of truth for the
arg-required list.
