Questions about coding and drawing

[perverted monkey]

I may sound boring to repeat myself, but what else can I say?
Nice artwork! The entries blend perfectly with the other sprites.

[fridaemon]

It doesn't sounding boring. It motivates me in creating it Glad u like it

[Quast65]

Very nice!

[fridaemon]

Very nice!

Thaaaaanks
Btw where is your screenshot to August competition. End of the month is coming!

Now I have 4 types walls for 4 types of roads. I'd like to create snowy version and another 90° view. Thinkin about adding lamps and signs. Tried it, but not sure about this. Or do you like it raw?

[Quast65]

Both

Thing is though with adding signs, is that not everyone drives on the same side of the road…

They look great, though a single lane version would be welcome too

It's in my plans I wanna do these entries for industry and for my shopping centres. For trucks/cars and for people.

[fridaemon]

You're right .. So I'll add just lamps and height limit sign

[Quast65]

Interesting!

The graphics of the single tile entries could also be handy for this project:
viewtopic.php?f=67&t=86956&p=1235154#p1235154
To expand that GRF with for example mail, goods and other cargo's for cities that are mostly built from eyecandy pieces that dont generate/accept cargo's.

A single-tile industry set has always been on my wishlist, but I couldnt think of good graphics for that (I think that loads of statues may become too boring), but entries may be the answer!
With different colored walls and/or gates showing the difference of what cargo is accepted/produced.

Just quoting 2TallTyler to alert him of this thread

... Thing is though with adding signs, is that not everyone drives on the same side of the road ...

Provide 2 sets of sprites; one for right hand drive the other for left hand drive. Use variable 0x86 with an Action-7/9 to skip the one or the other.

Code: Select all

86	B	Road traffic side: bit 4 clear=left, set=right

Thanks Very good idea I use your Plaza (etc...) as Industries and sometimes I covered it by overlapping object, for example like here:


So I appreciate this idea

I understand what you mean but for now I have no idea like to do it For now I create basic set and later I update it with your proposal and I'd like to animate few objects from my set.

[2TallTyler]

Thanks for tagging me. I’m not taking on any new projects right now, but you’re welcome to use my code.

[fridaemon]

Thank you, I hope I'll use it in next months

Just finished another shopping market. XXXLutz in combination with my underground garage entry, AuzCarParks and City Objects.

Would you like to buy a new car? New car shop has just opened!

Have a problem with this template.

Can someone give me template and codes for this position?


I have a wrong one. It works but with error duing conversions.

I don't know NML but I can see that the error repeats for each of the four positions.
Start by looking at the code at line 108. The error suggests that [x: 5, y: 5] is wrong. Are those really the coordinates on your spritesheet "gfx/slopehigh_8.png" ?

[fridaemon]

I know that's the reason - different spritesheet for the template. And I need to get right one from somewhere

Can you change the values for x,y in your template to match those used by the spritesheet that you have?
Alternatively, can you alter the spritesheet that you have?

I'll try to get numbers for it on the weekend ...
