: : *extend the map size limit to about 250x250..or more ;) : Yeah, these would allow for really huge cities and stuff. But : they would probably be quite large, bulky files that would slow : down the computer a bit. Chris is just using normal text files : for his BRDs, which is fine, but I think if he wanted to go that : big, he'd probably go with a binary format like he does with the : tilesets... : : *Allow 32x64 characters : Heh, these seem like they would look a bit freaky : to me, but hey, tall and skinny is all the rage.. : Ahem... : : *built in tile animation : True pixel animation you mean? This would be nice... : You can do tile animation right now with #Put and stuff, : but pixely animation (like for fires and rivers and such) : would be very, very tasty... : : *revised fill routine (diagonal lines do not stop the filler) : : *fill routine for map editor : Both of these are good suggestions... : : *built attack animation editor : Heh, isn't that what Version 2.08 has? Hmm.. Ok, it : doesn't have an attack animation editor, but all it requires : is a couple #Put commands after all, not that hard.. : : *enemy battle animations (like char battle animations) : This would be nice! If you make a custom battle engine, : you can do this, but built in stuff would be nice too. : : *Weird Thing with Layers (let me explain) You could define Opaque Layers...these layers would act as a seperate map : : Example: : : Layer 3 defined as Opaque : : When you enter the map..layers 1 and 2 show...its a nice city ! : : You walk into a door...(defined as stairs to layer 3) : : Layers 3+ show...its the inside of the shop ! : : This would be so cool ! : Ahem, while I might be giving away some secrets here, I can do : collapsable (sp?!?!) roofs already through a little trickery. : Basically, I have the store at layer 1 and a roof at layer two. : When the player steps on the door tile, it triggers a program that : puts a bunch of transperant tiles in the layer 2 positions, and boingo! : You have a roof that collapses. It also can put the roof back on after it's : gone, using #Scan and #Mem... Chris, heh, more memory slots would be kinda : nice... I'm trying to tweak a sort of "universal" program for this kind of roof, : and if I get it done sutiably enough, I'll release it. Or I'll hoarde it and : laugh evilly. Depends on what I feel like that day. And how much vodka I drank. : (Mwhahahahahaha, right Triuken? ;)...) : : : Well...thats all I can think of now :p : Stunning... : Mike
