Show pictures or maps
« on: April 23, 2020, 02:45:09 AM »
Is there a way to show a picture like a map or something?
A map like Castlevania or Metroid or just a random picture?
I didn’t find any command for that.


Example:

You can spawn sprites (pictures) and manipulate them using X and Y commands. You can place spawn blocks and spawn them from there and over the player as well.

Spawn sprite 1, picture

That command tells PB to spawn a Sprite with an ID of 1 onto all nearby spawn blocks with an ID of picture.
You can upload a sprite from Game Setup.

This will be easier if TingThing makes a better depth system.
Sorry because my English is not very good because I'm Spanish ;) :P

Like choosing what sprites should be above, and which ones below, and not just having BG and FG

Oh! Layering system...Can you believe PB has gone on without that? It should be added someday, but I've been able to pull off complicated layering systems with PB's simple layering system.
