cedit will edit single layered maps and cedit2 will edit dubble layered maps. getchar allowes you to get a character of your choice and is needed for the map editors.
the controls are easy, when you start one of the editors you will be asked if you want to start a new map or not. entering 0 wil create a new map and anything else will use string1 as map if it is the right size.
you move with the arrows, [2nd] will place the selected character on the map (or select the character in getchar) and [alpha] will open getchar and flip trough the pages of getchar.
[clear] will close getchar without choosing a character or quit the map editor.
in cedit2, [Y=] will flip from layer 1 to layer 2 to both layers and then back to layer 1.
when quiting the map editor, the map will be stored to string1 and ans, and when quiting getchar, the character chosen will be in string2 and ans.

future opdates may include editing both layers at the same time and/or using celtic2/3 to create a file with multiple maps so you don't have to recall the string in you program over and over.

| ooh nice! It reminds me Dragon__Lance map editor (on this site avaliable for download) but it didn't had dual layer ascii, I'm glad someone did it! It may be useful if I need to figure out which ascii would be the best if i ever remake one of my old games |
You could make a hybrid, as in some of it uses one layer and the other two...but you can get better results with mixing, as it adds a little more zaz :)

One suggestion though, could you include some kind of option for 'favorite character combo'? Scrolling through all the characters every time might get old.

Post by: tifreak on September 17, 2007, 03:05:00 am  Great work on this, btw. I have contemplated making an ascii map editor to assist in this. I actually have some very good ideas on implementing what I want... Post by: DJ Omnimaga on September 17, 2007, 03:55:00 am
Post by: dinhotheone on September 17, 2007, 01:56:00 pm Post by: Xphoenix on September 17, 2007, 02:59:00 pm You store a picture of the first layer, draw the second layer, and recall the first.

It is, but it since Dual layer ASCII still requires two layers of ASCII/Homescreen graphics, this would work. Post by: vuurrobin on October 10, 2007, 05:12:00 am  I will probably chance the list displayer so you can have more combo's and so it will load faster. after that I'll work on editing maps with a size other than 8*16 the controls are self explainatory (I hope), it only uses [2nd] [alpha] [y=] [clear] and the arrows. http://www.unitedti.org/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=1967 Post by: DJ Omnimaga on October 10, 2007, 06:27:00 am Awesome job on this program vuurobin! Now I have too many projects ideas because of this program X_X I'm glad you added saving combinations though it will make things much easier. This sure be worth adding to Omnimaga Calculator RPGs and Programming Tools! Post by: vuurrobin on October 23, 2007, 01:46:00 am I have chansed the combolist so it loads faster and has more room for combo's (64 instead of 40). unfortunatly, you will have to convert the string with a program I created if you have a previeus combo string. I have also chansed the editors so you can create maps other than 8*16. the single layer map can create maps from 1*1 to whatever memory allows, and the duall layer map allows sizes from 1*1 to 8*16. the programs: http://www.unitedti.org/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=1967 and the combostring convertor: http://www.unitedti.org/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=1964 I will create a menu for it and put everything in 1 program so people don't have those subroutines. I think I will drop the "put multiple maps in program" function, since people uses different variables for choosing the right map and they may want to include some stuff like a list with the monsers that can be found there.

Post by: DJ Omnimaga on October 23, 2007, 03:53:00 am Hopefully it may help me if I decide to make a new ASCII RPG :) I will prbly add to Calculator RPG and programming tools under TI Programming Tools as soon as I have time :)
Post by: vuurrobin on October 23, 2007, 09:22:00 am and it isn't finished yet, I am currently making a menu, putting it all in 1 program, and then creating a readme. after that, you can upload it :D and tifreak8x, if there are any problems, let me know, ok ;)  Post by: tifreak on October 23, 2007, 02:20:00 pm I started it up, put 19 and 19, then 1. It loaded a map that I had just worked on (creepy o.o  :P ) and then I pressed Alpha. It tooke me to the chars. I pressed alpha to scroll through them all, and then when I was on the begining again, I pressed clear, got an error:data type. AEDIT: If K=31 Then prgmZ1 Delvar KAns->Str2 The cursor stopped there, you might want to check into that. Post by: vuurrobin on October 24, 2007, 01:53:00 am just chance prgmZ1 Delvar KAns->Str2 into prgmZ1 if K=21 Ans->Str2 Delvar K I'll fix it and then upload it. Post by: tifreak on October 24, 2007, 02:41:00 am Just thought you would like to know about it.

Post by: vuurrobin on October 24, 2007, 04:10:00 am I do hope it doesn't go further than 1.0, AFAIK, there isn't anything to add. anyway, i have uploaded the fixed version :) I have also created a menu for it and put everything in one program, so all that is left is making a readme I guess.
