i meant an rectangular area that can be marked and named in the editor. it is not really an object at all, but an area you can use use in scripts :
LUA
if (UnitEntersArea(UnitType2ID(playerChar), Area('TutorialPos1')) == True ) {
call QuestInit('Tutorial1')
}
the reason i asked if i get the sourcecode if i buy your product is: i want to add game specific things for my game and also how it is suppose to save, for example:
create: terrain file, texture file, main-scriptfile (that contains levelbehavior and
unit placement)
mainscript.lua
createNewDoodad('Tree1', x, y, z, scaleX, scaleY, scaleZ, name)
...
function main {
call initMapTriggers()
}
also adding a textbox and a button to live-test for lua script code, like the one above.
that is what i am planing to do.
It would make it harder to create a level editor for my game: eitehr i use your editor as part of a "suite", or i finish coding my own, that basically has to do the same as yours, just modified to suit my needs....
that's why i am willing to buy your editor, with a Licence that, for example, allows at least editing the sourcecode for personal needs, but not for distribution exept in compiled state for a specific purpose, not usable otherwise (only as editor for a specific game)...
since: you might not be willing or able to add all the features i need, hence it would not be the features another coder needs...
don't be offended, but you should try to choose a Licence (GPL, LGPL, Mozilla, whatever) that allows code manipulation for a specific purpose. GNU Licenced software is protected by the GNU Foundation and anyone will be sued by them, if violated to protect the "rules" of how the code and the software itself my be used.
so there are ways to be save: btw: i think game creators offer something similar if sould by their portal. but i am not sure.
just do me the favour and think about it.
so close to my needs/dreams...
