when making the Apple II version of Myst I more or less generated graphs like this by hand based on playing through the game (in order to hook up the data structures for the custom 6502-assembly language engine) I wonder if it would have been easier to automate it like this.

I did the same when building the screen saver. It never occurred to me that the task could have been automated. It's difficult to imagine what tools I could have used for that purpose, thirty-odd years ago.
