editor mode is key 1
game mode is key 2
in editor mode choose texture with tab key
left mb to place block and right one deletes
to place doors press d
and to save map press s
z places the start point and x exit point.
dont forget to only have one each of start and exit on the map.
in game mode move with w,a,s,d and look around with the mouse.
space key opens doors if you collide with them.
iam using gil galvantis images from the tome engine as i didt care about doing gfx during this moment of boredome

did any one think this is usefull so that i know its any idea to release any more basic code ?

---

aww i thought it was all in 2D but you used planes!

---

Hey its a very nice engine, but do you mind if i modify it to use as base engine for a project i am working on? It would really save me from allot of work.. also i never really did a 2D Level Editor before(did 2 3D editors...) so i could probably learn allot more from this!

---

nope phalex its all 2d the editor the only 3d is the main game engine and its all cubes.
if you look closely so do i paste sprites as blocks in the editor.
zapakitul use it and modifie as you please.
cheers

---

The editor yea, but wolfenstein was 2D. I tried to make a raycasting engine once, but the display was a bit buggy. Might have another go at it now.

---

sorry my wrong phaelax.
thought you meant this code.
cheers

Can I, being a noob enough, ask a noobish question? About the code, I don't quite get this:
+ Code Snippet

``------------here do we save our level
if keystate(31)
save array "tempfile.map",block(29,29)
while keystate(31)
ENDWHILE
endif
``-------------here do we select our texture
if keystate(15)
inc txt_img
``-------------this makes the texture selector wrap around
if txt_img>22 then txt_img=1
while keystate(15)
ENDWHILE
endif
return

Why do you have the while keystate() and endwhile commands in there, if there's nothing in them? Is there a purpose to this?

---

That is so the program will wait for the user to release the key so it wont try to save the file more than once.

---

its an lazy mans wait key command

---

Not really... its waiting for the key to be released, not pressed.

---

yes i know pricey i wrote the code
