New room templates for Angband 4.0+
All right, here's a new batch of templates for special rooms! These will hopefully be included in 4.1, but you can play with them in 4.0 right now - just replace the current version of the room_template.txt file in the gamedata folder with the updated version attached to this post. (Unfortunately, it's not compatible with 3.5 and earlier because the header format for templates has changed.) Swapping in the new version of the file should have no effect on saved games in progress, since the templates are only referenced when a new level is generated.
The new version of room_template increases the number of templated rooms from 100 to 300, with many more non-square rooms and unusual interior layouts. Some example screens: Code:

Excellent - I'll have a good look at those tomorrow.

There are a few quirky little things in there as well like diagonal corridors and tiny moated rooms that could probably easily be done with dungeon generation rather than templates, but I stuck them in there for now since it's an easy way to play around with them.
I also reordered the file into sections that should make it easier to pull out individual types of rooms for different level profiles: - rectangular rooms with standard interiors - rectangular rooms with unusual interiors - round/oval rooms - other basic shapes - irregular outlines - rooms with treasure - rooms with specified treasures (Though I haven't done anything about filling out the type/rating fields yet since so far as I could tell templates with values other than 1 in the type field don't get generated with the current code.) |

These rooms look really great! Thanks!
I'm excited to start seeing these in levels. I think a lot of the mini-vaults and other interesting room types have helped make Angband interesting at shallower dungeon levels. |

Those are fantastic.
I'm thinking it would be a good psychological evaluation tool to ask which is the subject's favourite. Mine is the 'Exercise in frustration' series

 (The best part is the fact that, due to a fun quirk of the way mapping handles solid blocks, no matter what you do all six blocks will appear equally hollow until and unless you actually open the doors.)

Well, with my usual timing I've managed to leave it just a fraction too late for the release of 4.0.2, but anyway, here is the new, definitive (probably) version of room_template.txt!
A few screenshots: Code:
