Your best bet is probably a function. 1st and 2nd parameters are the coordinates, and the rest are tile ID that are to be checked.

And this formula should append the correct suffix to the number.

value & ((value % 100) - (value % 10) = 10 ? "th" : value % 10 = 1 ? "st" : value % 10 = 2 ? "nd" : value % 10 = 3 ? "rd" : "th")[/code:2ng1vp20]

You will probably have to use a plugin that can readily interpret any JSON thrown at it. (JSON++ by Nandynho, JSON by Yann)

I guess you could also intercept the JSON before loading it as a Dictionary and turn every value in strings, so they could later be loaded into their own dictionaries... there would still be the problem of embedded-embedded objects... but the same logic could still be recursively used.

Are you sure your tilemap isn't bound to the background layer (layer 0) ?

I just fiddled with layers and its "locked" property along with a tilemap, switching from the locked one to the other... and I get the "rectangle selection" thing only if I'm trying to "paint" on a tilemap that is on a locked layer.

The tilemap does have a pencil tool.

Could it be because the layer the tilemap is on is currently locked ?

Dropbox dropped the support of the "Public folder" so the previous link won't work anymore.

Here's another link, with a better formula for bullet angle calculation.

Here's with a loop. Don't crank up the number of bullets too high otherwise it'll lag to a crawl. <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_razz.gif" alt=":P" title="Razz">

I don't think a regex is the solution. You should probably do something like this :

You can't really switch those out. wallclocktime is incremented by dt every tick, the easiest thing would probably be using this dt directly.

Like this :

In this image, animTick is incremeted 4 times per second.

Yep, nice catch — A local variable get reseted to its default value every tick. Making it static will make it work as if the variable was global, but retain its local scope.

Also, Zebbi, keep in mind this system is not framerate independent, I believed you should use wallclocktime instead of tickcount to increment animTick.

If everything is like in my capx, I don't see why it wouldn't work. However, without your capx it's hard to really see what's going on.
