Split large grids into 256x256 chunks for performance.

Note: The value of "256x256" is a "nice round baseless number" - performance tests with animated tile properties, entity field of view, pathfinding, both at game logic and rendering, are critical to deciding that value; it may even be appropriate to be tuneable at compile-time for powerusers of McRogueFace Engine.

Definition of Done:

  • Automatic chunking for grids larger than threshold
  • Transparent to API users
  • Improved render performance for large grids
  • Memory usage optimization

Blocked by: Performance benchmarks needed to determine optimal chunk size

Alpha Release Requirement

This issue is a blocker to 0.1 Alpha release of McRogueFace.

  
Bugfix

   
Demo Target

Functionality to demonstrate; Depends on new features, but this issue isn't for writing them.

  
Documentation

   
Major Feature

Significant time and effort required.

  
Minor Feature

Some effort required to create or overhaul functionality.
