It may be something totally different, but something like this is already on graal classic, just check out the bridge to the right of futaids house.

I found a way to do this just simply setting a client.var when a player 'touchs' an npc (like going up a ladder or hill), basically it sets to a "layer" the player is on and the image detects what layer and adjusts what parts it blocks and is it drawn above or below the player.

Yes, that would indeed work. At least on the clientside. The troubles begin when there are more players around.

Exactly. If you "drawoverplayer" to draw the bridge over yourself, then the bridge will draw over ALL players whether they're on the bridge or under it.

just a thought experiment, boat could you possibly make the bridge a gani and work with the layers from there or would the same problem arise as before in script?

MrOmega · #37 08-19-2010, 02:36 PM

Also wouldn't changing changing just changing a var like player.layer work the same?

Bump! Come on Stefan, do want.

I agree! I'v heard of this LE in the making for to long! It would make life so much easier.

It's not really a level editor that's being requested, rather some tilelayer features. You can already create layered levels with Gonstruct and use them online.

Well I heard they were adding all these new and great things to the new LE. Though I would be more than content with new feature added to the current one.

I've personally not heard of "a new level editor" aside from vague mentions of possibly getting a scripted one soon™.

I'v heard, from what I believe to be quite a reliable source, within the graal team, that it has been in the making.

on a side note, I have tried to use Gonstruct, but for some reason I cannot get it to work. It's always a black screen, and even if I place anything down, it just disappears. But then again, I have heard people have had trouble with it too.

Sounds like you haven't configured tilesets properly or alternatively not set the path to your Graal folder. There is nothing wrong with Gonstruct at all aside from a minor display bug when scrolling in tileset.
