World Map Issues

Postby Thegeniusyoshi » Sun Sep 18, 2016 10:33 am

I am having multiple problems with the world map editor
1. Checking the "Game Start" checkbox on the level that should be the starting level doesn't work. It just starts the player in the world map on that level, but not in that level.
2. All stages are always visible, even if the "Always Visible" checkbox isn't checked.
3. Paths that shouldn't be there until the specified exit is cleared on the previous level are always visible.

Go to "Settings" and type the level's filename (including the ".lvl") into "Auto Start Level."

Since you haven't provided us with screenshots or anything, I'm guessing that's because you have the paths directly beside each other (they don't have to be "connected" to be activated). Make sure each path has one unit of space between other paths if you don't want the player walking between them.

Also, any path connected to the "Game Start" level will be visible from the start of the game no matter what, so if you want the Auto Start Level to be an actual level, you'll want to have the "Game Start" icon isolated from paths, then have the end of the level be a warp to another location on the map. If you just want the Auto Start Level to be a hub or cut-scene of sorts, you won't have to worry about all that.
