Importing a new city into A/B Street

My current priority is to make Seattle work very well, but if you want to try out A/B Street in another place, you can follow this guide. Please file a Github issue or email dabreegster@gmail.com if you hit any problems.

First make sure you can compile everything from source. Put some .osm (pre-clipped to whatever area you want via Osmosis or something else) into data/input. Then run:

cd convert_osm
cargo run --release -- \
  --osm=../data/input/your_city.osm \
  --output=../data/raw_maps/your_city.bin
cd ../precompute
cargo run --release -- ../data/raw_maps/your_city.bin

You should now be able to load the map using the option from the main game menu, or by running cd editor; cargo run --release ../data/maps/your_city.osm.

Future work

There are Seattleisms baked into the code.

• import.sh should be generalized.
• The driving side of the road is hard-coded to the right. Look for "driving on the left" in map_model/src/make/half_map.rs.
