Dudemo Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Hi! Does anyone know how to modify the spawn coordinates of new players? They're not specified in class.ini like I'm used to, and I'm really bad at searching the code for something specific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeNjO Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Look for:```' Default starting location [Server Only]Public Const START_MAP As Long = Public Const START_X As Long = Public Const START_Y As Long =``` Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeoSenpai Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 I mean, the default 'paper dolls' don't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does seem to be what I'm looking for, however modifying this value doesn't actually seem to change the spawn location. I've changed it toPublic Const START_MAP As Long = 1Public Const START_X As Long = 10Public Const START_Y As Long = 10But new players still spawn at X 12 Y 7, even after I've booted both server and client.Any idea why?@'LeoSenpai':> I mean, the default 'paper dolls' don't work.I think I had the exact same problem as you do with paperdolls. The default sprites don't match with the paperdoll graphics. The sprites have 12 frames of animation, the paperdolls have 16\. The dimensions also differ. That's why the paperdolls appear broken, they're meant for different sprites.I solved it by making new paperdoll graphics with PixelFormer, using the default sprite graphics as a base.

In order to make your changes to a runnable program, you need to compile it.Unfortunately, I can't provide a link to VB6 Enterprise/Professional (as it is technically proprietary software, however old it is), so you'll have to find it.

Agoraphobic Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Sky, great work on this impressive engine. Also thank you for taking time to work on this.The only two issues I have come across is the immense lag when auto-tiling and when aggroing a monster causes it to slide instead of walk.

SkywardRiver Posted January 17, 2016 Author Share Posted January 17, 2016 The mob is probably sliding because you have it's movement speed set to 1 or 2 haha. Try setting it to 4 or 5 :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zetasis Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Sky, have you found any fixes for the autotile lag yet? I love the engine but as Agro said, thats one issue that needs fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GLGanjika Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 has anyone been getting scrambled NPC and Map windows in eclipse primitive or SEB engine, a least since windows 10? How can this be fixed? :P Thank you for all feedback! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to your display settings and make sure your display scale is set to 100% and nothing higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeNjO Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 This is the reason for auto tile sucking. This is the same in all engines I have checked. It checks from 0,0 to the maps MaxX and MaxY and all layers per click/Ok/Cancel.Its not too bad on small maps, but when your maps get big it dies:Example:30x30 map, 5 layers (ground, mask 1 mask 2 fringe 1 fringe 2)900 tiles per layer, 5 layers = 4500 totaland thats why it dies.

BeNjO Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 It should really be changed to check and adjust the single tile, I forgot to mention,``` CalculateNW_Normal layerNum, x, y ' North East Quarter CalculateNE_Normal layerNum, x, y ' South West Quarter CalculateSW_Normal layerNum, x, y ' South East Quarter CalculateSE_Normal layerNum, x, y```it does each one of those lines PER click, so it calculates SW/SE/NE/NW per click 4500 times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeNjO Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Its not every tick, its every map load/ map editor cancel, map editor OK, clicking on a the map with AutoTile selected in the map editor.I'v just copied the whole sub and made the map editor use that alone, it has 0 lag looks al right to me and then its updated on clicking OK. Small issue with the calculations but at least there's 0 lag..Also i checked from Elysium Diamond (no auto tile) all the way engine to engine up to Skywyre and if the engine has auto tile it uses the same MaxX MaxY as Skywyre :(.

If the editor could calculate everything on save and dump it to a file, you'd only need to load those files and parse them for the data as opposed to calculating every time. Should cut down on compute time significantly for larger maps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agoraphobic Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 @Leosenpai, the paperdoll sprites need to be 3 framed, not 4 framed. The default ones in there are 4 frame.Example: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
