Another 2D procgen script with Godot Engine (second test)

Second day of programming an script to generate a typical room-based map in Godot Engine. Script has 525 lines today.

I still have:

To improve the way to detect the best direction the rooms should move (to avoid rooms escaping from screen as now!).

To remove rooms that are not in contact with at least 3 tiles to another hallway or room (2 is the size of the hallway + 1 for a wall).

To generate the stairs rooms at the start and the end of the hallway.

To be able to generate hallways that start and end in different directions than up to down. It's already done, but I didn't wanted to add the possible directions into the existing array because I won't have a way to check it, so I'll add it when I have a way to differentiate the start and the exit (maybe the two hallway rooms can have different colors?).

More things that will come later. 😃
