Code Review
This pull request optimizes the map generation process by merging two separate loops in generate_map into a single pass, improving performance by approximately 9%. A benchmark has been added to verify this change. The reviewer recommends exposing the production generate_map function to the benchmark rather than duplicating the map generation logic, which prevents future maintenance issues and ensures the benchmark remains accurate.

Maintainability: Avoid Duplicating Production Logic in Benchmarks
The benchmark duplicates the entire map generation logic for both the old and new implementations. This introduces several maintainability issues:
- If the map generation probabilities or tile types change in
src/state.rs, the benchmark will become out of sync and test outdated logic. - Keeping a copy of the deprecated
map_generation_separate_loopsin the benchmark suite adds unnecessary clutter once the performance improvement is verified and merged.
Recommendation:
- Make
generate_mapvisible to the benchmark (e.g., by making itpuborpub(crate)insrc/state.rsand exposing it via the library crate). - Update the benchmark to measure the actual production
generate_mapfunction to prevent future regressions. - Remove the deprecated
map_generation_separate_loopsbenchmark.

black_box(grid_crawler_wsl::state::generate_map(seed, size, size));

Spittin' benchmarks, timers tight, but no check that the output's right.
Both closures clock speed but never verify the two approaches land on equivalent tile distributions — a silent behavioral drift (like the RNG-order issue flagged in src/state.rs) could sneak through untested. Consider a companion unit test asserting matching tile-type counts (not byte-identical, since draw order differs) between the two paths, so a future regression doesn't just look "faster" while quietly generating broken maps.

💡 What: Combined two separate loops iterating over the
mapvector in thegenerate_mapfunction into a single loop. The combined loop now handles placing walls, and if a wall is not placed, proceeds to place resource nodes and pickups.🎯 Why: Iterating over the same data structure multiple times for independent operations is inefficient due to loop overhead and potentially worse cache utilization. Merging these iterations improves performance without changing functionality.
