[Plugin]Board, Layout2Board [Behavior] Grid Move

AndreasR

You are welcome! See you next template~

Hi rexrainbow

EDIT: Just found an example of yours for this Thank you!

Just a quick question. Do you have an example for "MiniBoard - Can Put" Condition?

I want to check if the whole miniboard (with its form and tiles) fits on the main board. If not, the game will end. I already have seen your "Miniboard - drag & rotate" template.

Thanks for that, it helped me a lot

Regards

Andy

You are welcome. Mini-board is an interested topic. I hope you will like these plugins.

Yes this plugin opened up some great opportunities for my next games & templates

I'll keep you posted and inform you when I'm done with them

Thank you once again!

Hi rexrainbow, I was just wondering if you ever considered adding support for boards with trimetric projection?

Hi rexrainbow

is there a way to add an action to set "force move" to yes or no?

At the moment it just can be set globally at the object settings.

Thank you!

Update

rex_grid_move behavior: add "action: Enable force moving" to turn on or turn off "Force move" feature.

AndreasR

Here it is. Use that feature carefully, because that z index will be changed (slink) when z overlapping by rex_grid_move behavior and "Force move" --

LZ = "#" & chess.UID[/code:15ha9v7y]
It is better to turn off "Force move" when LZ goes back.

Thanks for sharing this information. It will need a new plugin for this feature, now my squareTx plugin only supports dimetric ( isometric ) projections, which is bilateral symmetry.

Thank you very much, rexrainbow

Here are new documents of board series plugins.

I will try to add some applications' document later.

How to pick a chess, which was hitted by moving chess?

Assume that the moving chess is chessA

• if overlapped chess does not have the same LZ of chessA

Using board's "Condition:Is overlapping", see this document

• If the overlapped chess has the same LZ of chessA, i.e chessA will kick this overlapped chess out from board

Using Grid move bheavior's "Condition:On colliding begin", see the document

Hey rexrainbow

Got a problem with the "Pick neighbor" condition.

I have a click event on a chess, that should mark all neighbors by creating a Sprite on them.

Tried pretty much everything I can think of, but the Sprite creation doesn't even trigger which means that the "Pick neighbor" condition results in no picked items.

Here is my project .capx, I hope it is visible what I'm trying to do and where the problem is.

If there are issues with it, just PM me.

Thanks.

Hi randomly

rexrainbow might come in correct me on this, but I've compared your capx with his sample 'pick neighbors.capx' and this is what I found.

-picking neighbours is only possible with 'tiles', ie placed on LZ=0. I tested this by modifying the 'pick neighbors.capx' and populated the LZ=1 (ie as 'chess'; in Rex's Board terminology, anything LZ>0 is Chess and LZ=0 are Tiles), the Chess objects were _not_ picked. So this is consistent with your own capx.

-This makes the labelling 'pick neighbor chess' a bit misleading. It seems to actually mean 'pick neighbor tiles'

-Because of this you are unable to pick any neighbouring chess.

My suggestion is:

-Create the underlying Tiles array.

-Populate your Chess pieces normally.

-On touch with a Chess, query the tile underneath the chess

-Pick the neighbors of the tile

-Pick the chess pieces on top of the those picked tiles

-Generate your predict_kick sprite on those chess pieces

See this modified capx:

Like faulknermano said, put tiles before putting chess. Valid cells are defined by 'tile' (z=0), i.e. user should put a tile (z=0) at a LXY position.

Here is my new document of board plugin, hope it will be more clear.
