 |
|
Is there a command that can conveniently change the walkabout layering mode of a map? (Ex: Changing Hero over NPC to NPC over Hero).
My search of the wiki has so far yielded zilch.
Perhaps one of you would have better luck? |

You want to check out 'Menu:Main_Menu/Edit_Map_Data/Edit_Map/Edit_General_Map_Data#Walkabout_Layering'
I only knew what I was looking for because I have spent plenty of time reading over the RPG format. This feature is rather buried on the wiki, though.

He means plotscripting command.
It's probably available as a read general/write general, but that's completely undocumented so you'd have to guess what byte it is.
And when I say completely undocumented, it's not on the wiki or plotdict or anything. What gives?

Ah!
OK, you want to read/write from the map, not general.
'Plot:Draw NPCs above heroes'
draw npcs above heroes(setting)
0 = NPCs first (Heroes over NPCs), 1 = Heroes first (NPCs over Heroes)
I didn't see a command to get the status, though, so try read gmap(16) to get the current status.

Read/write general documented right here: 'GEN' and read/write gmap here: 'MAP'. Most of those have wrappers in plotscr.hsd, except for the new ones which Mike (Edit: and I) haven't done. Walkabout layering is one of the ones without a wrapper to read, readgmap(16) works.

Press Ctr-L then put middle and top layer visible. go to the maptile you want to layer and press page up untill it's layer 2. then press space.
