Yay! That looks awesome. Are those ships using the npc pathfinding?

I am reminded favorably of "Uncharted Waters New Horizons"

Yes, that is intentional-- but if you don't want it, there is a bitset that disables that feature :)

I'll be getting on the airplane crazy early tomorrow morning.

The nightly build box is currently inside a crate being shipped to Toronto, so they won't be updating for a while (totally separate from the issue of the wiki being down right now, which I thing was a botched update)

Yep, I'll feed it when I get a chance, but I don't know exactly how soon that will be. I'm currently right in the middle of of my move.

I think I may have also had to change a setting in AndroidAppSettings.cfg I don't think it auto-detected the portraitness of the aspect ratio.

Re: naming

How about we call them "N color Pallettes"? Or "PaletteN"

The editor is indeed doing some extra magic to grey out the layers. I don't remember the details and I can't look at the code today, but; Maybe! Fetching the handles of the map layers and offsetting them by changing their x and y should work as you desire. You can also offset the heroes and NPCs lay...

I don't remember if you can get @ references to subscripts or not. Tmc would remember. The lathe number of slices you describe does not sound like a problem, but if you do want to reduce the number of slices, remember that you can cram a lot of data into a single invisible slice. Three "extra&q...

Yes! You can look at my scripts in Don't Eat Soap, Bell of Chaos, Paladin Traducer, and Vorpal Florist. I used a very similar method OO in all of them. It works pretty well. You can even fake methods by storing script references with the @scripname feature and call them with wrappers that use "...

"Oh, the fire yesterday? Interesting." The woman looks Normin with more curiosity than she had before. She takes the flask that Normin offers and looks at it carefully, holding it up to the light, and then opening it and smelling it, a tiny careful smell first, a deep whiff. "Hmm... I...

The only other firefighters in earshot are Ebald and Ursula. Ebald shakes his head emphatically, and exits towards the back room. Ursula shrugs. She puts her hands on her hips, and stands watching Cece and the messenger, but she does not volunteer without further coaxing. The messenger waits with re...

"Follow follow!" peeps the little kobold. It begins leading Hyne across the guano-encrusted rocks. Its tiny feet don't sink into the white mush, but for Hyne it is like hiking through ankle-deep snow. Birds nested among the irregularities of the rock scatter as they pass, circling overhead...

I did a portrait layout for my game "Devs Like Waffles" https://www.slimesalad.com/forum/viewgame.php?p=117620 I used 200x320 and it works out nicely. The Android port will stretch the screen to fit. There is not currently a way to change to different aspect ratios for different screens, b...
