world.sav file
« on: December 15, 2007, 11:27:00 pm »

I'm guessing that the "world" is saved in the world.sav file and am wondering what kinda format the actual world is in.

I finially got around to making a simple inflate program that inflated all the chunks of zlib data, but have yet to figure out where the "tiles" start and in what order.  

Anyone else looking into this that can share some info with me?  I've been digging around in the wiki for info but mostly find info on the dwarves (which most people are conserned with).

Only thing I can add to this so far is the fact that the world.sav data is cut into 20KB chunks and then compressed, except the last 2 which are half of the last chunk less than 40KB but more than 20KB.
