Recursive shadowcasting wrong in wiki?
« on: January 04, 2012, 08:46:55 PM »
Hey there! I just registered so I'd like to say hey to the roguelike community!

Anyway, I read this article on the wiki. However, it seems that there's a bug in there somewhere. If you look at this picture I'm sure you'd understand:

http://imgur.com/okvVB

In the top picture, the algorithm works as expected, but when 2 tiles are added like in the second picture (the vertical wall doesn't matter, i exaggerated it) it acts weird and that's not at all the way I'd like it to look.

It's the same on all 4 sides. So it's the code posted in my link that's a bit faulty as a whole.

Is there an updated version or is it just like that?

This is my first octant just to show my syntax, all the other ones are the same except for a few other values

Code: [Select]
           int x = 0;
            int y = 0;

            switch (octant)
            {
                case 1:
                    y = playerPosition.Y - depth;
                    x = (int)Math.Round(playerPosition.X - startSlope * depth);

                    if (x < 0)
                        break;
                    if (x >= mapDimensions.X)
                        break;
                    if (y < 0)
                        break;
                    if (y >= mapDimensions.Y)
                        break;
                    
                    while (GetSlope(x, y, playerPosition.X, playerPosition.Y) >= endSlope)
                    {
                        if (IsWithinVisualRange(playerPosition.X, playerPosition.Y, x, y))
                        {
                            if (map[y][x].BlocksVision)
                            {
                                //if (TestCell(x - 1, y, playerPosition.X, playerPosition.Y, false, depth))
                                if(!map[y][x - 1].BlocksVision)
                                    RecursiveScan(playerPosition, depth + 1, octant, startSlope, GetSlope(x - 0.5, y + 0.5, playerPosition.X, playerPosition.Y));

                                lightMap[y][x] = 1;
                                visitedMap[y][x] = true;
                            }
                            else
                            {
                                //if (TestCell(x - 1, y, playerPosition.X, playerPosition.Y, true, depth))
                                if(map[y][x - 1].BlocksVision)
                                    startSlope = GetSlope(x - 0.5, y - 0.5, playerPosition.X, playerPosition.Y);

                                lightMap[y][x] = 1;
                                visitedMap[y][x] = true;
                            }
                        }
                        x++;
                    }
                    x--;

Shadow casting is weird like that...  It's a tradeoff between accuracy and visual appeal.

You may have better luck with restrictive precise angle shadow casting.  Java, but I am sure you can adapt it to the language of your choice.  This code is not thread-safe (unless of course you use a different instance in each thread).

Don't forget to post-process to make visible any walls adjacent to any visible floors.

Thank you Leaf! It's very nice of you to provide a code sample! Is it as fast as the recursive method?

Yes corremn, I made those. They're more of a placeholder until we can get a better graphics artist,  though this is a school project so they don't really have to be top-notch. I'm not really a great artist but I wanted to try it out since I'll have to make my own because I don't know anyone who can draw. Practice makes perfect, eh?

It should be faster in general than a similar implementation done recursively.  Iteration is almost always faster than recursion (every time you call or return from a method, a stack frame gets either pushed on or popped off the runtime stack behind the scenes.  This is a relatively expensive operation compared to the simple integer increments usually associated with iterative operations.

A bigger factor will be the access time of the structures you are storing your data in.  The algorithm I posted is suboptimal from the standpoint of adding all the visible points to a results collection that has to be iterated over again when you draw the cells, and that it makes calls to abstract methods to look into your data structures.

I wrote it that way so it'd be pretty much plug-n-play into other people's code, though.  Extend the class, implement a couple of abstract methods, bang done.

If you wanted to optimize for speed, you could instead process the points as soon as they are found, rather than adding them to the results set (this will make it process the |1.0| slope diagonals twice, though).  You could also inline the stuff that is currently being handled by those abstract *Impl methods to remove some more stack overhead (though I suspect that the optimizer is probably inlining them anyway).  Small gains could probably also be made if you were clever enough to convert the whole thing to use integer math instead of floats, though the prospect of doing that makes my head hurt too much for the small gains I think it would produce.

If ya want my (possibly stinky) opinion though, be careful to avoid falling into the premature optimization pit. :P  Write your game using the clearest, most straightforward code possible to begin with, even if it's slower.  Then later on run it through a profiler if you have to, identify the parts that are actually producing bottlenecks, and optimize only those parts, and only as much as gives a real efficiency improvement at a fair tradeoff of readability.  It's a heck of a lot easier to maintain slower but clearly written code 12 months later after you've forgotten how it works, resulting in fewer bugs over the life of the product....

Indeed, I like to make a copy of the clean code before I optimize it.  Typically I leave it in the same source file, commented out.  Then if a bug needs fixed in there later, I roll back to the unoptimized code, fix the bug, and then reoptimize it.

Anyway, that's the Leaf Rant for today. ;P  Sorry for rambling on at such length, lol.

I think your graphics look pretty cool.  But if you really don't like them, google "rltiles".  Decent-ish public domain 32x32 tiles for Crawl and Nethack.

I do just that! No worries. We're using SVN so I just commit before making any big changes and then I can just revert if the shit hits the fan. Thanks for the tips though!

Oh? Really? I think they're really ugly... I just filled it with a dark gray, then I painted with some brighter gray, added noise and voilĂ ! Same with the wall.

No, it's not.  The original post is correct: the recursive shadowcasting code on the wiki is apparently incorrect if it behaves as he showed.  Also, if you're doing recursive shadowcasting in C, then there is no reason whatsoever to switch to a different algorithm based on speed alone.  It should be amply fast enough (even if you don't do the fastest possible implementation).

Anyway, here are a couple quick fixes to your code that should bring you closer to a properly working recursive shadowcasting algorithm:
Code: [Select]
            int x = 0;
            int y = 0;

            switch (octant)
            {
                case 1:
                    y = playerPosition.Y - depth;
                    x = (int)Math.Round(playerPosition.X - startSlope * depth);

                    if (x < 0)
                        break;
                    if (x >= mapDimensions.X)
                        break;
                    if (y < 0)
                        break;
                    if (y >= mapDimensions.Y)
                        break;

                    while (GetSlope(x, y, playerPosition.X, playerPosition.Y) >= endSlope)
                    {
                        if (IsWithinVisualRange(playerPosition.X, playerPosition.Y, x, y))
                        {
                            if (map[y][x].BlocksVision)
                            {
                                //if (TestCell(x - 1, y, playerPosition.X, playerPosition.Y, false, depth))
                                if(!map[y][x - 1].BlocksVision)  // TODO!  Don't do the below on the very first iteration.
                                    RecursiveScan(playerPosition, depth + 1, octant, startSlope, GetSlope(x - 0.5, y + 0.5, playerPosition.X, playerPosition.Y));

                                lightMap[y][x] = 1;
                                visitedMap[y][x] = true;
                            }
                            else
                            {
                                //if (TestCell(x - 1, y, playerPosition.X, playerPosition.Y, true, depth))

                                // MODIFIED!
                                if(map[y][x - 1].BlocksVision)
                                {
                                    startSlopeNext = GetSlope(x - 0.5, y - 0.5, playerPosition.X, playerPosition.Y);
                                    if (startSlope < startSlopeNext)
                                    {
                                        startSlope = startSlopeNext;
                                        if (startSlope > endSlope)
                                            break;
                                    }
                                }
                                lightMap[y][x] = 1;
                                visitedMap[y][x] = true;
                            }
                        }
                        x++;
                    }

                    // ADDED!
                    if(!map[y][x].BlocksVision)
                    {
                        if (map[y][x + 1].BlocksVision)
                        {
                            endSlopeNext = GetSlope(x + 0.5, y + 0.5, playerPosition.X, playerPosition.Y);
                            if (endSlopeNext < endSlope)
                                endSlope = endSlopeNext;
                        }
                        RecursiveScan(playerPosition, depth + 1, octant, startSlope, endSlope, playerPosition.X, playerPosition.Y));
                    }

Code: [Select]
RecursiveScan(playerPosition, depth + 1, octant, startSlope, endSlope, playerPosition.X, playerPosition.Y));
Are you sure about that? The method looks like this:

Code: [Select]
public static void RecursiveScan(Point playerPosition, int depth, int octant, double startSlope, double endSlope)
Here's another call earlier

Code: [Select]
RecursiveScan(playerPosition, depth + 1, octant, startSlope, GetSlope(x - 0.5, y + 0.5, playerPosition.X, playerPosition.Y));
Should I use the same slope as earlier in the code?

Nope and nope.  Copy/paste error on my part.  I guess the end of the case should probably be:
Code: [Select]
                        }
                        x++;
                    }
                    x--;
                   
                    // ADDED!
                    if (map[y][x + 1].BlocksVision)
                    {   
                        endSlopeNext = GetSlope(x + 0.5, y + 0.5, playerPosition.X, playerPosition.Y);
                        if (endSlopeNext < endSlope)
                            endSlope = endSlopeNext;
                    }
since the recursive call is done after all the switch/cases in the example code on the wiki.  This is a minor check, but still necessary for fully proper behavior.  I think with the way you're doing the rounding, you iterate over a grid if the constraining slope intersects with a full-width diamond within a tile.  Obstructions, on the other hand, are treated as squares.  This code checks whether endSlope intersects with a blocked tile (full square) that it didn't otherwise iterate over b/c it didn't intersect with the diamond within the tile and adjusts endSlope as necessary.
