Hands-on Rust

Building a Dungeon

You’ve built an empty map and have a player who can walk around it. The structure is in place to handle walls, so it’s time to add a simple dungeon. In this section, you’ll learn to randomly place rooms, connect them with corridors, and build a dungeon for your adventurer to explore.

Create a Map Builder Module

Make another new file named map_builder.rs. This file will contain the map building module. Add it to your prelude in main.rs:

BasicDungeonCrawler/dungeon_crawl_rooms/src/main.rs

mod map;

mod player;

mod prelude {
    pub use bracket_lib::prelude::*;
    pub const SCREEN_WIDTH: i32 = 80;
    pub const SCREEN_HEIGHT: i32 = 50;
    pub use crate::map::*;
    pub use crate ...
