SGDK2 Released

I tried and the behavior is still there to notify you if you try to redefine an already-mapped tile.  Perhaps you are not clear on the distinction between a mapped tile and an automatically mapped tile.  If you have not explicitly mapped a tile (if it does not show up in the dropdown list of tiles) there can still be tiles in that range that can be used on a map.  But you will not get a warning/error when trying to re-map one of these implicitly mapped tiles.  This allows you to accept the default behavior for a bunch of tiles, but then override the appearance of some tile if you decide it should look different (without a warning message).  The warning message only happens if you try to explicitly map the same tile index twice.

i suggest heavily a function to delete rules including children.
just now i deleted 94 rules single.
(they were left over by my old ReactToStreams behaviour, which was made of single rules. now it is a neat code object, thank god)

[bluemonkmn]

I made a note of it.

in sprite rules it would be a lot easier if you could have some more keyboard shortcuts.

for example copy rule could be: ctrl+c
paste rule: ctrl+v
delete rule: delete key
copy rule including children: ctrl+shift+c

something like that would be a lot easier than going through menu's.

[Tanja]

word!

[bluemonkmn]

Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, and delete are reserved for operations within a textbox, and I'm afraid that if I make those form-wide shortcuts in the menu, then attempting to delete a character from a textbox would delete the whole rule, but if I don't put the shortcut in the main menu (maybe only in the tree view's context menu), maybe I could manually handle key-presses on the tree control to behave like this.

i desperately wish to have a chance to select multiple rules and delete multiple rules (at least the option to delete a rule including children) in the next version...

If you really need to do this right now, you can edit the .SGDK2 file in notepad and find the rules and delete them.

[Tanja]

no bad idea at all. ^^ thanks!

[Tanja]

next suggestion: it would be lovely to can set "SnapToTiles" onto Sprites also. ^^
next suggestion²: why not hard code "modulateAlpha" for layers and tiles?

[durnurd]

What do you mean by this?  A function to snap sprites to tiles during runtime?  Or during design time while placing sprites?

If during runtime, is this just a replacement for move by velocity and then set position equal to
(location / tile size) * tile size?
If during design time, would
Edit->Snap to Tiles     Ctrl + T
be the functionality you're looking for?

Or are you referring to a function that snaps to sprites?

[Tanja]

oh, then it's my fault. i didn't figure out "Snap To Tiles" in the Editor was for placing Sprites also. because it works only with first placement of the sprite. and i placed a sprite, and then remembered "snapToTiles", but then it snapped no more. that's fine. thanks for clarification.
