WorldForge Developers Journal

Mercator 0.2.6 has been released and is now available from the WorldForge download site.

Mercator is a library for handling procedural world data, especially terrain. It is used by all WorldForge components. This API is still in development, and changes with each version.

Changes in this version:

• The API for terrain modifications has been fleshed out and is now more complete.
• The Forest code has been extended to make it more generic and
  useful.
• The offset of a Segment is now provided in terrain coordinates
  rather than segment multiples to make code simpler everywhere.
• Memory footprint is reduced, and some leaks have been fixed.
• Inline and generated API documentation has been improved.
• Test coverage has been improved.

Source code and Linux binary packages can be downloaded from here:

• Source Code
• Source RPM
• Fedora Core 9 RPM
• Fedora Core 9 devel RPM
