Editor Instructions

Postby Brendan_ » 01 Sep 2011, 19:00

I've been trying to figure out the editor. After pressing every key on my board and button on my mouse got me nowhere (other than adding a model per click, I Googled for directions. I found none.

Specifically, I can't move the camera. But things like editing terrain blocks would be very nice to learn too. My hope is that answers here will help whoever Googles later.

esc should allow you to move the camera with wasd+ mouse

Click on a tile, and use the mouse wheel to extrude or delete blocks

Click and drag on a model to move it, press r to rotate it.

X to copy, v to paste..

Thanks! That worked fine. :)

So, you already know that I'm working on the Ruined Port location for our demo. I notice some Lips locations are larger than others. How do you specify sizes of maps in the editor?

Currently, you have to do that in the text file pattern spec. /data/lipsofsuna/scripts/content/patterns. Open the file in there that you want, and just after name you'll see size, which is the size in x,y,z tiles

Oh yeah, I'd also recommend you work on my GodHeadLips fork, the current Lips release might have a nasty bug when saving large maps that makes you lose em.
