Thanks. =D

Easy to add, and I have done it. I have no plan to share it, considering the code here is an incredibly washed down version of my own one. ;D

Also, the blank tile type is to simply make it not show up on the minimap. With some extra checks in CheckDirection, and several other server-side edits, you can make it so that it acts like a blocked attribute, and cannot be walked on.

Hey i keep getting an error when trying to add this in…when i try to compile it, it says:
```
Compile error:
Statements and labels invalid between Select Case and first Case.
```And then it highlights:
```
Call Engine_BltFast
```  :O

This is like, three posts condensed into one. Bear with me. :D

See this part?
```
                Select Case Npc(MapNpc(i).num).Behaviour
                        Call DDS_BackBuffer.BltFast(MMx, MMy, DDS_MiniMap, NPCrect, DDBLTFAST_WAIT Or DDBLTFAST_SRCCOLORKEY)
                End Select

```
Change it to this:
```
            Engine_BltFast MMx, MMy, DDS_MiniMap, NPCrect, DDBLTFAST_WAIT Or DDBLTFAST_SRCCOLORKEY

```

@Debbie:
```
            If Map.Tile(X, Y).Type = Map.Tile(X, Y).DirBlock >= 1 Then

```What the hell are you trying to do here? xD

lol Scootaloo I didn't know what I was doing there mate

[emblem]

I noticed haha

[Growlith1223]

Ok so i did what you told me and now it's highlighting a different peice of code, it highlights:
If frmEditor_Map.optBlank.Value Then .Type = TILE_TYPE_BLANK
I put it in a place that i think was right :S
I put it in:
```
Private Sub Form_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
```Because i couldn't find the End With statement :s

[Growlith1223]

NVM i got it working! i didnt know mapeditormousedown was in the modGameEditors.bas :S

hmm… How to render it over picScreen? I'm trying with MMx, MMy values but it works only on the picScreen :/

[Wucker]

because the picScreen is where Engine_BltFast draws to. if you want it not to be in picScreen, then use Engine_BltToDC, but you won't be able to mask

Amazing! Works great!
Thank you for sharing this! :D

Looks good.
Thanks for showing screenshots of it unlike on some other tutorials I've been looking at

Where would I find this out?

[Justn]

It goes in numeric order (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) after u add it in the tile constants look above at the previous one.there will be an "= #"  . The # will be an actual number (1,2,3,4,5, ect) not the # symbol u just will add one to(+1) that number and place it in the line of code u just added.. is this question for real?

[sirebrus]

Errr. >.< I was thinking too much into it… Sry...

*Edit*
How can I make it so that my character doesn't speed walk when the minimap is on?
