A bit of help with LAT

[emoman]

Hi, I have been using graals level editer for a while but have only recently come back to it since i found a LAT job about a year ago.

Now i know the basics of level editing, but right now i just want to make sure im doing this all right.


Just help me with these few questions i have.

1. When i first start out how do i shrink the level a little smaller, i'm trying to make a shop so i want to make it quite small. I always thought you needed to just select the amount of space you want and drag it away from the main level.

that was an easy question here comes the ones im not sure on completely.

2. I have a specific tileset i wish to use someone sent it to me by PM and its in a code

// NPC made by BLAHBLAHEXAMPLE
if (example){
exampleexampleblahblah.gif,,1;
}

Something like that

How can i put that into the level editer to get the tiles ?


I might have more questions so keep posted on this thread if you want to help.

And I'm sorry if my questions are so nooby and i sound stupid im just looking for help.


Thank you so much <3

1. There should be a black tile on your tileset, and reading from your post you already have a custom tileset so I can't really show you where it would be. But in reality your level still has the same dimensions, but you're just make it feel smaller with a black tile.

2.
if (created){
removetiledefs;
addtiledef tilesetnamehere.format,,;
}

Or if it's not using the same format as pics1.png, use a 1 in the commas, for a setup like Era's.

Make a blank NPC in the level editor, and simple copy and paste the code into that level NPC, and it should automatically change the tileset for you.
