I know how to import tiles and create map code, i just need the map code to reflect the tiles i put in the maps. For instance, in my game 13ghosts, the brick tile is equal to 3 in the map file
if i had a map like this
3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,
3,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,3,
3,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,3,
3,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,3,
3,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,3,
3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3
that would make a small rectangle with walls around the outside that look like bricks
what i'm getting is 1 for the first tile i decide to put on the map, no matter what the tile's actual value is supposed to be.
How do i set the tiles to have their own distinct value?
I want to know this so i can use the Tile Studio program to create maps for the next project i'm going to work on, Doom.
Doom's going to be a HUGE game so i need a way to quickly create levels.
I'm going to use negative values for where sprites/enemies are supposed to go, and special negative values for types of doors. My program will handle all of this accordingly and assign the right doors/tiles/sprites to the locations on the map described by the negative value.
For instance if i set -15 to be a shotgun,
3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,
3,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,3,
3,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,3,
3,0,0,0,0,0,-15,0,0,0,0,3,
3,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,3,
3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3
The shotgun would be in the map in roughly the middle.
How does one do this?
The code generation script in TileStudio responsible for making the right map codes in thriteen ghosts is;
Code:
; thirteenghosts
#tileset
#file maps.txt
<MapCount>,
#map
<MapWidth>,<MapHeight>,
#mapdata
<TileNumber:"%2d">,
#end mapdata
#end map
#end file
#end tileset
is there something wrong with this? ( i used the arena 3d TileStudio code as an example)
