Lake generation

We're glad you came by, but you might find what you're looking for elsewhere. TI-Basic Developer is not the site it once was. While its information on commands and other calculator features remains almost second-to-none, its forum, archives, and even hosting service, Wikidot, have been decaying for years. The calculator community would love to see what you're working on, or help you in your next coding adventure, but TI-Basic Developer is no longer the place to do it. Instead, you should head over to Cemetech (primarily American) or TI-Planet (primarily international). Both are active, well-established forums with their own archives, chatrooms, reference material, and abundant coding tools and resources. We'll see you there, we hope.

Lake generation

So I want to make a world (water+land) generator on my ti84 plus cet. I already have a simple one that uses matrixes, but now the water is just randomly spread. What i want is that the water will form a large body rather then spread itself. Does anyone know how to do this?

What do you mean by 'spread'? You mean none of the water is actually connected? What's your current code?

If I understand you right - if you want to graph a body of water, you need to remember where you started generating it, then continue generating it afterwards until you hit the edge of the screen or until you generate another shore on the other side.
