This is a map of the Australian country. It has 7 bots - the 7 states of
the country. This is my first time making a pull request, so I'm sorry
if i messed something up or something doesn't work.
Added functions to TerrainMapGenerator to create a bitmap from the
Minimap Terrain array with the colors being identical to those rendered
in game, with the additional change of setting the Alpha of all water to
0.
Calls added to generateTerrainMaps to actually generate the thumbnail
PNGs,
Revision to src\client\utilities\maps.ts to reflect that the images
pulled into the UI should be those ending in 'Thumb.png,'
I've tested by launching the game and starting a few matches.
hile I'd hoped that using the minimaps as the basis for the thumbnails
would speed things up I think the actual bottleneck is the writing to
the file system.
Below is a screenshot showing these thumbnails in the UI.
Finally I will say that while the code additions work, given my novice
status with typescript and asynch calls these changes may benefit more
from review and a little critical feedback before they're ready to
merge.
