World map file format
« on: January 19, 2008, 06:04:00 pm »
I looked around the WIKI but didn't find anything. Has anyone figured out the world map format? I am a programmer by day and have a couple ideas I would like to try out in terms of analyzing a generated world for certain patters. Essentially just a tool to search the world for spots that meet certain criteria.

The only (that I'm aware of) published research of the binary file formats used by DF is here: http://www.dwarffortresswiki.net/index.php/User:Rick/Save_research
It doesn't look like Rick has updated it recently.
