Adds a random map generator tailored for the Dune 2000 mod,
D2kMapGenerator.
This map generator has some limitations compared to the RA/CnC
map generator (ExperimentalMapGenerator):
- Symmetry is far less accurate for non-trivial rotations.
- No circular map shapes.
- Unplayable regions are not obstructed and no symmetry corrections
are applied. This is partly due to mod limitations (e.g., no
decorative actors), but I've also considered it less important.
- Somewhat higher map generation failure rates, due to more extreme
play-space requirements.
In order to support the map generator, some additional features are
added to common map generation utilties:
- A "FromTemplates" MultiBrush collection shorthand.
- Path partitioning logic in Terraformer, use to split paths into
multiple TilingPaths with different segment types.
- pieces represent Min and Max instead of random interval
- More control where spice spread
- fix AoE in SpiceExplosion weapon
- delay interval between each pieces

Previously, the ClosestTo and PositionClosestTo existed to perform a simple distance based check to choose the closest location from a choice of locations to a single other location. For some functions this is sufficient, but for many functions we want to then move between the locations. If the location selected is in fact unreachable (e.g. on another island) then we would not want to consider it.
We now introduce ClosestToIgnoringPath for checks where we don't care about a path existing, e.g. weapons hitting nearby targets. When we do care about paths, we introduce ClosestToWithPathFrom and ClosestToWithPathTo which will check that a path exists. The PathFrom check will make sure one of the actors from the list can make it to the single target location. The PathTo check will make sure the single actor can make it to one of the target locations. This difference allows us to specify which actor will be doing the moving. This is important as a path might exists for one actor, but not another. Consider two islands with a hovercraft on one and a tank on the other. The hovercraft can path to the tank, but the tank cannot path to the hovercraft.
We also introduce WithPathFrom and WithPathTo. These will perform filtering by checking for valid paths, but won't select the closest location.
By employing the new methods that filter for paths, we fix various behaviour that would cause actors to get confused. Imagine an islands map, by checking for paths we ensure logic will locate reachable locations on the island, rather than considering a location on a nearby island that is physically closer but unreachable. This fixes AI squad automation, and other automated behaviours such as rearming.
* TSVeinsRenderer now shows border cells on the radar
* BuildableTerrainLayer now uses the radar colors defined on the individual tiles
* CliffBackImpassabilityLayer no longer overrides the underlying terrain color.
* ResourceType trait has been removed.
* Simulation-related data is now defined on the
ResourceLayer (which mods can subclass/replace).
* Support non-money resources by moving the resource
values to the PlayerResources trait.
* Allow mods to disable the neighbour density override
and instead always use the map-defined densities.
* Allow mods to define their own resource placement
logic (e.g. allow resources on slopes) by subclassing
(Editor)ResourceLayer.
* Improve ability to subclass/override ResourceRenderer
by exposing more virtual methods.
