Tileset

[rune]

I set up a Tileset for my game, the Tileset of forest, rocks, trees, and drawn houses, etc.

I also have NPC sprites made.

How do I distribute each tile and character on the world map?

[tiberiyltim]

Manually:

	setgfxplane SCROLL_B
	loadtiles Logo_1,60,449 ' 60 Tiles (96x40 pixels, 12x5 tiles)
	DRAWTILESINC 449,14,7,12,5 'start tileset,x 0-63,y 0-63,width,height

Or through the utility Tiled Map Editor, Tiled.

Thanks Tiberiyltim, but what I want to know is how to choose where the tree tiles are in position 2x, 5y, where is the stone in position 10x, 23y, etc. Can you help me?

Tile collision detection? It’s just not clear. Describe the mechanics so I understand.

Or do not know the architecture of the platform? Convas for tiles and sprites?

I know it was not well explained. I'm sorry.
I will exemplify:

I have a Tileset made in Photshop with 8 tiles.
Tileset:
0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8

(0=floor, 1=door,2=tree,3=house,4=house,5=house,6=town hall,7=brigde,8=wall)

And I want to build a city like this:

8,8,1,1,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8
8,0,0,0,8,0,0,0,0,8,0,4,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,8,0,0,0,8,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,5,0,8
8,0,5,0,8,0,0,0,0,8,0,0,0,8,8,8,0,8,8,0,0,8,0,2,0,8,0,6,6,0,0,0,0,0,8,8,8,0,2,8
8,0,0,0,8,8,0,0,8,8,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,8,0,0,8,0,0,0,8,0,6,6,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,8,0,0,8
8,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,0,8,7,7,8,0,0,0,8,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,8,0,0,8
8,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,8,7,7,8,0,0,0,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,0,0,0,0,8,0,0,8
8,0,2,0,0,0,0,0,0,8,0,0,0,8,0,0,0,0,0,7,7,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,8
8,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,8,0,0,0,8,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,0,0,0,0,3,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,5,8
8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,1,1,8,8,8


The characters would walk on 0 and 7, but would collide on 1,2,3,4,5,6 and 8

Thats a very interesting idea, I also would like to know this.

You'll need to make a map engine.

You can use Data and DataInt statements for your map. Use the numbers above like so:

MyTownMap:
    DataInt 8,8,1,1,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8
    DataInt 8,0,0,0,8,0,0,0,0,8,0,4,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,8,0,0,0,8,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,5,0,8
    DataInt 8,0,5,0,8,0,0,0,0,8,0,0,0,8,8,8,0,8,8,0,0,8,0,2,0,8,0,6,6,0,0,0,0,0,8,8,8,0,2,8
    DataInt 8,0,0,0,8,8,0,0,8,8,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,8,0,0,8,0,0,0,8,0,6,6,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,8,0,0,8
    DataInt 8,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,0,8,7,7,8,0,0,0,8,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,8,0,0,8

Suppose your 9 tiles are loaded into location 100:

    LoadTiles TownTiles,8,100

You have a loop to draw the tiles (the MyTownMap table above isn't a full screen worth of tiles, so you'd want to fill that out first):

    Reload MyTownMap
    For y = 0 to 27
        For x = 0 to 39
            ReadInt z
            DrawTile 100+z,x,y
        Next
    Next

Then you need to keep track of your sprite's coordinates, then check the map to see if you're about to cross a tile that should block you. If it is one of those tiles, cancel the movement.

If you want to make a scrolling map, you'll need to write the column or row you're about to see prior to scrolling. Search these forums for a soleil example. It has a basic engine you might be able to use.

You helped me a lot. Thank you
