   @grumpygamer I think if I had to generate random dungeons I’d use a fractal algorithm and change the fractal dimension between dungeons (and possibly within) to give them a different feel of complexity

     I'm very happy with the maps my Wave Function Collapse generates, but... they just aren't that interesting to explore, they all feel the same despite being very different. But random dungeons are fun and interesting! My guess is the world maps are organic and the dungeons are meant to be artificial so they make more sense to our brains. Uncanny valley for maps. I need to do some rethinking.
