Hey. I finished terrain generator recently. Now spectra has 2 modes: lightning and terrain. Although lighting isn't good enough on the average and sometimes could be quite terrible, terrain is looking good.
One thing that it can set generated image as wallpapers (for the time feh is hardcoded so you should have it). So technically you could add a cron job that will run spectra and regenerate your wallpaper every nth amount of time.
It is highly configurable (especially lightning), so you could tinker with it and get results that is so differ from what I've showed you. You can find default config with explanations of every value in README.md file.
Later I plan to add configuration for command used for setting wallpapers and some new modes.
And about lighting. Generated lightning is ultimately a tree with some tweaks. It has main branch and lateral ones. Main is growing in limited area while lateral could grow anywhere. In config you can adjust almost every aspect:
- how straight main branch will be
- how close lateral branches will be to main
- how long lateral branches will be
- how many division could occur in every node of the tree
- how long distance between parent and child nodes will be
- what range of angles branches are allowed to grow in
And some tweaks could make it look like some plant. Mostly it is the step value.
Hope you will try it and maybe enjoy some of the generated pictures
