erosion sim ideas

[vh]

first open the grayscale png elevation map, then read all the pixels and put the greyscale values into an array
def erosion(c):
    lower the value of c
    look around at all the pixels around c to see if any are lower (in all 8 directions)
    set the pixel with the lowest elevation to c
    if none are lower set c to a pixel
run erosion(c) x times.
write this all into the png file.

any suggestions for improvement would be nice

OH, oh, after i get past the basic step i can use one of the three rgb channels to generate the hardness of a material!.

OH, and the steeper the slope the more the erosion should be.

i want an erosion sim for reasons

(i can help if you want, starting on wednesday (maybe even tuesday night))

stop with your time
school doesn't suck as much energy for you because you just sit there fuqing around

[atomic7732]

um yeah i get homework and have to not fail tests

@atomic
my idea was for the input to be a png file, grayscale values denoting height, and the output to be a modified png file, grayscale values denoting the height. i don't know what you need the erosion simulation thing for so not sure if what i had in mine is what you had in mind?

[atomic7732]

yes it is except the input and output is so much better.

Okay maybe not but it's decent. I just want to simulate rivers (a small section of it not like 500 km long more like 500 m long). Cause rivers are cool. Also other erosions are nice too.

good idea
