Êrthur, The Infinite Universe

Êrthur is a tool to extract a high-resolution, zoomable embark map of an entire Dwarf Fortress world.

Here's an example.

It's not in a well-packaged format for ease of use currently, but if you'd like to try it out for yourself despite that, here's a description of the parts you'll need to run and how they work.

You'll need DFHack and NodeJS.

1. Clone this repo in the root of your DF install, and copy export-embark-map.lua to the hack/scripts DFHack folder.
2. Enter the embark screen. If your save is mid-fortress, make a copy of your save and retire the fortress, and enter the embark screen on the copy.
3. Run export-embark-map from the DFHack console. This will take a while, and when it's done it will produce a map.json file in the root DF folder.
4. Run npm install in the erthur folder to fetch the dependencies.
5. Run node draw.js in the erthur folder. This will read the map.json file as well as the palette in ../data/init/colors.txt.
6. Once this script is done, open index.html. Tada!
