pseudo code:

while rooms.count < number_of_rooms_to_create
set room = new room

set room.sizeW = random()
set room.sizeH = random()

set room.posX = random()
set room.posY = random()

if room fits
rooms.add(room)

end while

start_room = random(rooms)

foreach room in rooms
if room is not start_room
create_path(start_room, room)
end foreach

This works just fine for square tile based 2D maps. This falls apart when trying to create maps that contain rooms of arbitrary shape and size. The first problem is how to check if the room will fit. The second is how to link the rooms together at their respective door/entry-way points. In my original post, this was easy to do since the rooms were all quadrilateral shapes and the walls and floors were individual tiles. Now I want to use whole 3D and 2D chunks instead.

I've attached an image that is derived from the tile set in my original post.
