  • There's timers, as well as a timeline object, and a timer behavior.

    Just how would you want it implemented? Like the "call function after delay" of a function?

  • Once that transparency bug is fixed we should be able to do all of that.

    Plus I'll have semi-transparent animated water, and fairly realistic fog.

    Hmmm, guess I could probably do some interpolation between two different seeds as well.

    Oh yeah there's more, much more you can do with this. Imagine grass applied to plains, snow applied to peaks.

  • Ok I see.

    Now where's that Mr Burns gif at... oh here it is.

  • I think its pretty much planed for 2.0, well at least the unicode stuff is.. I think.

  • Ok, just wanted to make sure as a sprite distort map's coords are only relevant to the sprite.

    So setting a vertex z height will only work as long as the sprite lines up with the noise.

  • So the noise will always have the absolute coords of the layout, starting at x=0, y=0?

  • Well I wouldn't think there would be any license issues with an equation, not that Adobe would'nt try that. I mean your just adjusting rgb levels.

    Cool fx, I can see some definite uses for it, especially for using grayscale.

  • Sounds good, you could do several different things, like use just one sprite, then paste it into a canvas.

    Probably a ton of interesting things you can do with fx as well.

  • I figured there would be some issues with rendering, that's a lot of sprites to generate. Have you thought about just having it output to some kind of array? That would allow the user to use different objects, like canvas, or even minimap. Plus you wouldn't have to render it all at one time, and you could use several small tiles instead of one big one. Of course tile-ability would come into play with that.

  • Well then perhaps Arima's suggestion might be best. Although it seems the blur mask fx is limited to about 25 pixels.

  • Is this an fx?

  • All of which can be accomplished with a decent image editor. So unless there's another function to crop said sheets at runtime, this is all pointless.... imho. Its just another proverbial easy button, best suited for something like Stencyl.
