[PLUGIN] Paster

Thank rojohound

You specify the RGB and Alpha values in 'Clear to color'. Alpha controls the opacity of the color.

I cant get the particles working with the paster.

Neither the new shadow and lighting behaviour and plugin.

Does the Paster plugin need a Update?

Particles and shadows paste fine here.

In the game im building i use your paster to create splitscreen play. (paster is moving rapidly from pos 1 to 2 back & fort)

I set up your example capx just like i am using it in my game.

As a result, the particles are not showing.

The shadow however does. (mistake i made, thanx)

Could u look at why the particles dont show.

Thank u for the quick help!

Whoops, Shadow was not working.

My game has a layout size of 3000,3000.

And for some reason the paster wont show the shadow with this layout size.

Capx is updated.

Ah, I see the issue, Particles and probably shadows aren't drawn if they are off screen. No ETA on a fix though.

Its worth the wait.

Thanx for the fast reply.

Great plugin, but I have a question regarding split screen: Can I use Paster like in the example from here that is using Canvas ?

Last time I tried Canvas it had a lower FPS when I was using WebGL ... Between Paster and Canvas witch one should I use it for splitscreen multiplayer ?

Paster is faster than Canvas when using webgl, and yes it should be possible to use Paster in the same way as Canvas in that example.

At the moment you can only draw quads, I'm assuming drawing polygons will be possible in the future?

My game has a layout size of 7680, 4320.

I want to paste my tilemap onto the paster.

However (with tilemaps) the paster only renders the project window size.

So now i see the sprites of my game of the full playfield 7680, 4320, but only 1920 x 1080 of the tilemap.

Can u fix this?

It would be truly great!

Kind Regards.

The tilemap plugin won't draw anything that's offsceen, which is why only a window area is drawn. One idea could be to set the window/viewport size to be the same as the layout temporarily before pasting.

Ah i understand.

Your idea might be a great solution!

Thanx for the tip R0J0hound

I have a question, I discovered the sprites can be pasted into canvas if collision is enabled.

Otherwise, if collision is disabled, the sprites cannot be pasted, why use collision?
