Shuman Map Format
The Shuman map format is a UDMF-inspired map format that aims to simplify rendering and physics calculations.
Sectors
All sectors in the Shuman map format are triangles. This is to speed up calculations both in physics and rendering(and also because I couldn't figure out tessellation). A sector's walls, lines of the triangle, have a texture property to define the texture of the wall. It can be set to the special texture pms:none to be made invisible and thus to join sectors together.
In editor
In the Project Morault editor, you can create a new sector by pressing LSHIFT+N. You can select a point by left-clicking on it, then move it by right-clicking and dragging. To join two sectors together, one line of both sectors should have the same points. By selecting a point and pressing LCTRL+J, it will set the position of any point in a 5 pixel radius to itself.
To select a line, simply select a point, then press RSHIFT+L+<the letter of the point you want to select a line to>(eg:RSHIFT+L+B). To change a wall's texture, simply select a line and press T. This will prompt you to choose a texture in the terminal.
