Changelog

Changelog:

General Changes: Script Version Updated: Incremented from version (0, 1) to (0, 2). Script Name Standardization: Changed from "Blender Maze Generator" to "Maze Generator".

Class and Functionality Enhancements: Class Name Changes: MESH_OT_generate_maze renamed to OBJECT_OT_GenerateMaze to follow more standard naming conventions in Blender API.

Property Changes: cols property in MESH_OT_generate_maze renamed to columns in OBJECT_OT_GenerateMaze for clarity. Added random_seed property to allow for reproducible maze configurations. Added iterations, delete_islands, island_wall_count, apply_solidify, and apply_bevel properties to provide more control over the maze generation process.

New Methods and Functionalities: Added deselect_objects and delete_existing_maze methods to OBJECT_OT_GenerateMaze for better scene management. Introduced create_grid, initialize_maze, get_random_neighbor, visualize_maze, extrude_walls, apply_solidify_modifier, apply_bevel_modifier, remove_non_manifold_vertices, and delete_islands_with_up_to_n_faces functions to modularize the maze generation process. Added apply_transform_and_cleanup to finalize the object transformations and ensure clean geometry.

UI Enhancements: Panel Class Renamed: VIEW3D_PT_maze_panel renamed to VIEW3D_PT_CreateMazeMenu for consistency and clarity. Enhanced UI Interactivity: New UI elements for controlling additional properties like random_seed, iterations, delete_islands, island_wall_count, apply_solidify, and apply_bevel.

Documentation and Comments: Enhanced Docstrings and Comments: Added detailed docstrings to new methods and functions explaining parameters, processes, and error handling. Improved inline comments for better code readability and maintenance.

Error Handling: Robust Error Reporting: Enhanced error handling across new methods with detailed exception reporting to aid in debugging and ensure stability.

Code Structure and Organization: Improved Code Organization: Functions and methods are more modular, allowing easier updates and maintenance. Better separation of concerns, with distinct functions handling specific parts of the maze generation process.
