Re: [pygame] Perlin Noise Function

["Hugo Arts" <hugo.yoshi@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm not sure Perlin Noise would belong in the base pygame package. Though useful in some cases, it's not a critical/elementary function for game development. It might be a better idea to offer the functionality as an auxiliary library, or perhaps bundle it together with other procedural generation tools.

Hi

I think Perlin noise exist already for python, unless you really want to do it by yourself.

Here is one I know of: http://code.google.com/p/caseman/downloads/list

There are porbably more implementations out there.

I have been thinking about writing a function do to Perlin Noise. Is there any interest in pygame having this?
