The Houdini map creator builds maps for the Edorble platform (#671). It is tooling, not an experience, so it becomes its own project with its own repo and releases.
Source material on the msi1060cederik backup (msi1060cederik-backup/Data on the Storage Box):
- Projects/2024/Edorble-Tools-Houdini-MapCreator (about 4,550 files, includes the UnityPR Unity project for import testing).
- Projects/2022/Edorble/Edorble-Tools-Houdini-MapCreator: the earlier copy. Compare the two and pick the newer tree as canonical.
Scope:
- Recover the Houdini tool from the backup into a repo.
- Document the pipeline: Houdini input, generated map output, and how the platform imports a map.
- Define the map artifact format the Edorble platform consumes, so maps build without Houdini installed on cluster machines.
- CI that packages a map from source when the tooling allows it.
Consumers: the platform master #671 and the Unity College campus maps in #672.
