Maze generator

Not wanting to kill a good idea, but when I google “lego marble maze generator” the first hit looks to be what you are asking for.

Hi @nielsgerrits ,
Yes of course I saw that in Google. I wasn’t able to open it on my work computer when I posted this, but I was able to when I had a look on my computer before you replied. Seems like age old IT policy issues. However, this webpage also doesn’t quite do what I want. It has a minimum internal wall width of 2, I want to be able to set half of that. Big bricks mean an easier maze!
Sounds like this question is a non starter if there is no easy answer

I did some maze generation in FME in the past.

I think what i did was create a grid of points and then random offset every point a bit to the west/east and north/south.

Than a neighborfinder to connect all the dots to there closest neighbor and merge all connecting lines with each other. Then I did this multiple times for every result. Connecting all the lines to all other lines.

Then use a shortest path search to find the shortest path from the start to the end of the maze. To create the maze from the lines you buffer the lines to your path width and buffer the boundingbox a bit. Then cut the maze from the boundingbox.

My result looks a bit like this generator:

But then set to “As lines” before i convert the lines to a cut from the boundingbox.

And if you use that generator and buffer the lines to a kwarter of the path width you could get a pretty good lego maze to build.

Maybe it’s another IT issue, but the MazeGenerator transformer works for me. I don’t know how helpful it will be. My outputs look like this:

3D Curvy

2D Straight
