We may also want to save the seed used for the generation in one of the binary files. |

Save maps as binary files to use less memory. (It is way better than strings !)
We will store uint8 for colors.
And we will use custom floating storage : 5 exponent sign (From 2⁻¹⁶ to 2¹⁵) + 19 bits mantissa for a total of 24 bits (3 bytes) with values being the offset from the lowest value stored at the beginning.
Don't forget a leading byte telling which structure is stored in this file.
