New page

Vision (or line-of-sight) is the process by which tiles around the player are revealed.

The player also has a sight [[Distance|radius]]. By default, this sight radius is 9, but it can be increased to 11 with the [[Traits|Cateye]] trait. Additionally, some other effects can reveal a limited number of objects outside the player's sight radius.

Certain tiles (like walls) block the player's vision. The effects of these obstructions are calculated by a modification of Isaac Kuo's [http://roguebasin.roguelikedevelopment.org/index.php?title=Isaac_s_fast_beamcasting_LOS fast beam casting algorithm]. The exact algorithm used by Doom RL is open-source as a part of [http://sourceforge.net/projects/fpcvalkyrie/ FPC Valkyrie].
