ExtMap (WIP)

Core · Postby **Core** » Tue Aug 25, 2020 9:46 am

Salut folks,this is worldmap-only library. It adds a tile-n.txt, scene-n.txt, path-n.txt and level-n.txt functionality to the game. So far it's wip, so recommendations and feedback is appreciated by a lot...

Warning: it may not be compatible with some other libraries.

I want to say huge thanks to MrDoubleA for helping me with rendering and some other stuff. -w-

Ooh, a library which allows you to basically customize most stuff in the world map?
This is amazing, I can't wait for what people will do with this!

I bet to avoid running into conflicts with future basegame systems using the same file names.

Blocks stop rendering when the top corner is hidden, even when the block should still be visible

Decided to take a small look at the files, and am now wondering if it would be possible to automatically resize stuff like scenery based on the size of the image and how many frames they have, instead of putting in the size in the .txt file.

How about you do that for if the size isn't defined in the config
