What about instance create ? Just a setSpriteLocation

Dave

@Rxvlism I'm not quite sure I understand what you're asking here! Could you elaborate?

Rxvlism

Instance_create ( xx, yy, oDirt );
What would this look like in Fuze ?
GetSpriteImage
DrawSprite or Image

I’m confused at how to call oDirt at xx and yy

Dave

Probably better to avoid using the sprite commands for the drawing of a map or background, they're intended for characters/objects/animation and make it very easy to interact with a map drawn in the Map Editor loaded with loadMap(). Depending on whether this dirt tile is from a tilesheet or is an image unto itself, you'll probably have more success with drawImage() or drawSheet(). For example:

// load tilesheet - let's say the dirt tile is tile no. 3
sheet = loadImage("filename")

// using the tileSize function gives us a vector for the tile dimensions
tSize = tileSize( sheet, 3 )
scale = 2

for y = 0 to gheight() step tSize.y * scale loop
    for x = 0 to gwidth() step tSize.x * scale loop
        drawSheet( sheet, 3, x, y, scale )
    repeat
repeat

This gives me something like what you're describing!

Im using my own image 16x16 pixels and when I use tileSize I get the “this image does not have tile data.” I don’t use tile sheets for this reason or I’d make one big png

@Rxvlism If you just use one single tile in the image, you can use drawImage()

Rxvlism

Finally :D you guys are the best For Loops had me going nuts for a bit there!

Thanks @Dave & @Nisse5

Dave

Yep - so it would look something like this:

// load tilesheet - let's say the dirt tile is tile no. 3
img = loadImage("filename")
 
// using the tileSize function gives us a vector for the tile dimensions
tSize = imageSize( sheet )
scale = 2
 
for y = 0 to gheight() step tSize.y * scale loop
    for x = 0 to gwidth() step tSize.x * scale loop
        drawImage( sheet, x, y, scale )
    repeat
repeat

Just in case anyone else was wondering how it looks with drawSheet.

Rxvlism

Is there a getPerlinNosie function in Fuze or will I have to create it ?

@Rxvlism You could always ask this person nicely!

Rxvlism

@pianofire

That’s exactly what I’m looking for but 2D how would I contact them the forums ?

pianofire
