how to make a tile a specific number, and then make a tile to activate the tile/turn it off-on?

13:19

pls

Switch Layer

yes but how do i make an object with that numbr?

Press space

13:31

Select a tile with the mouse and then put it in the map

Milfey

yes but how do i make an object with that numbr?

on the topleft there is a menu for selecting numbers. just as you would with tele

okay

Teero

is it possible to do the same for an object?

what do you mean with object?

maybe tele tiles

huh? what exactly do you want to do?

i want to fix a skip in my map by trying to "disable" a tile after a tee hits deactivate

disable what kind of tile

teleport tile

just put a door infront of it? xd

ok i will try

or just make it a checkpoint tele and set a new checkpoint that doesnt allow you to go back in the same tile the switch is in (edited)

can you join me for a sec?

14:03

idk if you think the same as i do

its a shit map dont be suprised

What's the maximum size a map can be?

Teero

sadly at around 600k distance you can't move anymore xd

.

14:28

as i know in rules don't anything said about size

14:28

can do large as game can do troll

the bigger the map, the bigger the lags though keep in mind

I think I remember it being 2.5 mb, but I cannot find it anywhere in mapper rules or guidelines

wait the file size or

u about this size

Ye how many mb

Aoe

I think I remember it being 2.5 mb, but I cannot find it anywhere in mapper rules or guidelines

it's not in rules but it's good to keep the map like <2mb

14:31

if it's possible of course

i guess it can be any size

Hmm.. I already edited each mapres to remove all the unused tiles and I still need to add more design + logo and its already 2,3 MB :S

maybe you have some quads on background that can be lowered in resolution by any chance?

can wait for some nice dude who know how large it can be

e.g. if you have a cloud on a bg and it's small in game while image itself is pretty big (edited)

Ye I already did that sadly... Maybe this project is just too big. I want alot of assets sadly

if you optimized everything already and it looks epic it should be fine

its more like if its over 2mb it better be an amazing design

14:39

but if your map has a shitty design with 2 4k fog images and it's 2mb then testers are gonna remove it (edited)

14:39

if the design is really cool or unique and needs to be 2mb i wouldn't worry

Alright thanks

Milfey

teleport tile

hah i wish

Is there anything that can block the snowflake effect of Freeze

no kinds of particles can be blocked

14:52

including respawn and teleport gun

oh () thx

14:54

I used live freeze in the introduction, and its snowflakes look a bit worn

i think @Entity704 used a tune zone where you cant move

What's the maximum size a map can be?

23170x23170

16:31

ah lol you mean filesize

Teero

23170x23170

why such odd limit

the data structures in the code are limited

18:37

you can stretch it to each side ofc (edited)

18:37

but at most you can have that many blocks

Teero

but at most you can have that many blocks

I mean, most often such limits are somehow connected with the power of two, but why this not a case

ofc it is

18:42

it is sqrt(2^31) / 2

18:42

im not sure about the exact reasoning anymore but we discussed this in #developer a long time ago

There is always an option to merge some images together in case they overlap each other ig, and make it as one. (edited)
