In this article, we will improve the Map class to generate a real dungeon with rooms and corridors. We'll use a very simple dungeon generator, using a straightforward way to connect rooms together. This will result in "winnable" dungeons (no room disconnected) but with a slightly chaotic look. For a better corridor connection, check the libtcod C++ samples in the libtcod/samples/ directory.
