ConditionalCoder<p>When programatically adding tilemap tiles to a scene (using set_cell()), is there an easy way to avoid needing to specify 'magic' numbers as the atlas coordinates?</p><p>I thought about defining constants for the coordinates I use, but then I'd end up with dozens of them, and I wonder if that's even helping or not...</p><p>Has anyone else done this? What was your solution?</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/Godot" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Godot</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/GodotEngine" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>GodotEngine</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/Godot4" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Godot4</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/GDScript" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>GDScript</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/Tilemap" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Tilemap</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/GameDev" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>GameDev</span></a></p>

njamster :godot:<p>I'm currently toying around with <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/AutoTiling" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AutoTiling</span></a> – and looked into how <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/Celeste" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Celeste</span></a> is doing it. Its tilesets follow a common template (image 1). To my surprise it does *not* include all possible inner corners, though! It's noticeable in-game as well (image 2 or highlighted in image 3). Obviously saves time (16 tiles less), but for a game that includes multiple variations for most of its tiles, it seems rather odd? 🤔 Am I missing something here? <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/@saint11" class="u-url mention">@<span>saint11</span></a></span></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/GameDev" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>GameDev</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/TileMap" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>TileMap</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/TileSet" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>TileSet</span></a></p>
Tommy van Son ✔<p>The current state of my <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/tilemap" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>tilemap</span></a>. the colours are placeholder, but the thing works. It decides which of an array of 38 sprites will be shown on a particular place. The water thing takes up one tile, but 8 others are slightly affected and take a bit of water too.<br /><a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/GameDev" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>GameDev</span></a></p>
Tommy van Son ✔<p>There's something nice about making a <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/tilemap" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>tilemap</span></a> by hand. Don't know why, but what's more exhilarating than making sure tbe right sprite is shown when the north eastern neighbours is X and the western is Y? Not even kidding. I'll try to have a screenshot ready tonight. <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/GameDev" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>GameDev</span></a></p>
