Previous Task 2: http://www.gamedev.n...c-rpg-1-task-2/

The Word Designer has now been fully planned! It will consist of the following:

1. Tile Layer
   
2. Object Layer
   
3. Sprite Layer (For the main character / Enemies (Most will be generated randomly in the area)
   
4. Collision
   

I will allow:

1. New Map
   
2. Save Map
   
3. Load Map
   
4. Map Options (For increasing, or decreasing map size)
   

There will also be an active scroll bar for the tile area.

I did receive a comment in the last entry to use other tools, however the entire reason for these projects is to use Allegro 5 to create my games, and tools. My code base is mainly from Allegro 4 with C++, and other Libraries, plus C#. My C# level editor is full featured for collision, tile or free based layering, plus properties per object, and would make a better edition than re-making something like this. The only reason I will not use my C# Editor is because of my intent to use Allegro 5 for all tools.

Task 3:

Task 3's object is to simply create a working world designer that can make a new map, adjust the size, save the map, load the map, and place tiles and objects on the map. The collision part will be a simple task as well. Due to my previous code base, this will be an extremely simple process.

Task 3's Goals:

1. Create the GUI for the World Designer
   
   
2. Program the Menu
   
   
3. Program each Layer for Placing
   
   
4. Program the Tiles / Objects / Sprite Selection Area
   
   
5. Program the Scrollbar for the Selection Area
   
   
6. Program New Map
   
   
7. Program Save Map
   
   
8. Program Load Map
   
   
9. Program Map Options
   

I will post a video of my complete product!
