When programatically adding tilemap tiles to a scene (using set_cell()), is there an easy way to avoid needing to specify 'magic' numbers as the atlas coordinates?
I thought about defining constants for the coordinates I use, but then I'd end up with dozens of them, and I wonder if that's even helping or not...
Has anyone else done this? What was your solution?

Oh, giusto!
Ho dimenticato di mostrare il risultato, applicato al mio caso d'uso.
I giorni scorsi, ho riportato qui la versione sviluppata usando le #SpriteMap di #BabylonJS.
Questo -invece- è il risultato ottenuto con #ThreeJS mediante l'uso di una classe "#TileMap" e uno #Shader ad-hoc scritti dal sottoscritto.
Son molto contento del risultato! 🥰
La parte grafica di "visualizzazione" è praticamente finita.
Ora potrò -finalmente- concentrarmi sulla "ciccia" e le logiche "core" del gioco... 😏

#TileMap & #Mipmap: non vanno d'accordo...
Online è una cosa risaputa; «Everyone knows it!» - mi han risposto, in un forum!
«#YesBut... Why?» - e cadeva il silenzio...
Qualcuno ha provato a darmi delle risposte che -sul momento- ho preso per buone... In seguito, rivelatesi errate!
Ci ho messo 2 settimane...
Ma potrò lasciare ai posteri il mio retaggio: come usare tilemap e mipmap insieme.

«Si può fare!» 🤯
Migrazione a #ThreeJS.
Il primo problema è che -la libreria- non dispone di un componente già pronto per la gestione delle #TileMap (a differenza di #BabylonJS).
Online non ho trovato nulla che facesse al caso mio...
Mi metto -quindi- di buona lena ad implementarlo.
Un banale piano, una texture da caricare e qualche riga di #TSL da scrivere... E le famose #Mipmap?
Le abilito ma -anche il mio #Shader, come quello di Babylon- non le gestisce correttamente.
Qui il risultato. 😞

did you know that when you make a game, you have to make everything the player sees, or it doesn't exist?
i made part of this map and extended the tileset to support it on an overcrowded plane using Pixaki, which doesn't support tiles, so i had to basically re-create it in Tiled, but the hard part's done. now for the next hard part.
A much more successful isometric map test:
Check out Asesprite V1.3! The #tilemap editor is finally released!
Some fun in #Godot4 today. Created a small #Tilemap and added my #character sprinkled some #soundeffects to it and made it runnable.

No flow? Then sharpen your pencils!
If one of this days where the juices do not flow, take a step back. And „sharpen your pencils“.
Doodle around with your pixeleditor. Read that manual of this that add-on you are using. Clean up your project folder or rework that one tile in your #tilemap. Or think about and prepare a new sound fx.
Eventy project can benefit also from this tiny tasks. Like making a holiday inside your project.
I'm currently toying around with #AutoTiling – and looked into how #Celeste is doing it. Its tilesets follow a common template (image 1). To my surprise it does *not* include all possible inner corners, though! It's noticeable in-game as well (image 2 or highlighted in image 3). Obviously saves time (16 tiles less), but for a game that includes multiple variations for most of its tiles, it seems rather odd? 🤔 Am I missing something here? @saint11
The current state of my #tilemap. the colours are placeholder, but the thing works. It decides which of an array of 38 sprites will be shown on a particular place. The water thing takes up one tile, but 8 others are slightly affected and take a bit of water too.
