#Tiled

2025-05-20

this would definitely not be the first time I've hacked extensions into #tiled to make it generate level types it was very clearly NOT made for, lol. But I know it'll work, basically just use the tile metadata to compile the actual data I need.

Dumb idea: I REALLY don't feel like writing a UI in fltk/gtk/qt just to have proper level editing for my game than my current manual variable editing from the console and then it occured to me, while my game isn't tiled or 2d, #tiled (as in the open source editor) supports 90% of what I need and I can just do a custom exporter and use the property lists/object layers to do the rest. The majority of my game is grid based so I can just implement that part as 3 tile layers

I'm wondering: #physics makes a lot of use of #periodic functions, in particular it is very useful to solve space-dependent equations in representative volumes with #periodicBoundaryConditions.

However I've only seen it done with periodicity along orthogonal directions, aligned with a Cartesian frame.

Do you know of work, e.g. #PDE resolution, in nonrectangular #periodicDomains? E.g., in a #tiled hexagon? (but with a sufficiently generic setting, not exploiting regular hexagon symmetries) Even better if the periodicity parameters themselves are among the unknowns.

(Maybe I'm completely missing something obvious there, I'm in my first steps towards defining what I want - any random thought on the topic highly welcome!)

Thorbjørn Lindeijer released Map Editor version 1.11.2. mapeditor.org/

Oooh, the new #Tiled version has some very nice features!

Aseprite Image Support

Tiled now supports loading Aseprite images directly. Aseprite is a popular editor for pixel art. This means you can now use .ase / .aseprite files in your tilesets, without needing to export them to PNG or other common formats first.

New rule: Any time I find myself aimlessly clicking around between websites I don't care about, I have to open #Tiled and work on this map for my #GBStudio game.

"It's how people in these parts induce a trance," the guide said. "Each village has a hall #tiled in a tessellating pattern. You enter, walk the pattern, and--well, do you want to try?"

Helen was eager. The pattern was twisting, interlocking stairs. Helen started on brown tiles, then realized she was on white, and then--

it was like the ground melted away--she was floating.

She swam languidly to the exit.

"What did you think?"

But Helen was too dazed to reply.

In the #tiled discord it was suggested I contribute to the codebase by writing an additional export format.

The aspie who blabs nonstop said would "definitely save time, and your hard drive too by using one write instead of two"

I already have a tool that handles conversion. I've had it for years.

This is what open source really looks like: you are berated until they realize they really do have a bug, then they tell you to fix it after calling you incompetent. #opensource #coding #gamedev
