Implement a particle engine in the animation engine [4]
Page for the idea: SoC Ideas Particle Engine 2012
A particle engine allows to draw pixel per pixel where each pixel's position is given by a piece of code or a mathematical fomula. This is used to display interesting physical phenomena like water flow, explosions or fire
The aim of the project is to add such an engine within the animation engine and, if time permits, within the terrain engine.
A good understanding of the animation engine will be needed, but the particle engine will fit quite nicely in the existing structure
for performance reasons the formulas will probaly have to be given in Lua, but other approches could be interesting
there will probably be some needs to go into the wesnoth-SDL infrastructure for the display part
googling for "particle engine" and "particle engine SDL" should provide lots of groundwork for writing proposals
There are no student proposals for this idea
