Another tilelayer question
 

Can tile layers be hidden/shown individually? The last time I played with tilelayers I think you had to tell it how many layers you had to show them, but can you hide and show them individually or no?

level.tilelayers[1].alpha = 0;

Wow, that one made me feel stupid. I was expecting some sort of hide() and show() or .visbile = false; or something lol

Thanks. That should work perfect.

Now if I could just remember how to enable multiple layers. I think theres a script you need to use.

You can't just enable layers. You have to actually create a level with layers in it, which the current editor can not do. You'll have to use Gonstruct.

I do have a level with layers. I used gedit to open it and added this line as a test

NPC Code:

---

BOARD 39 53 3 1 FCFCFC

Was drawing some water over some sand and going to add some alpha to it to see what kind of effects i could get :o As far as I could tell this should work but I think I remember tig telling me u needed a command to tell the client how many layers there were or something. I forget now. But my level shows up all black with the second layer showing and a few tiles fro mthe previous layer just around that layer showing up.. and no script is messing with it. i just dont know why it wont work.

Gonstruct doesnt work for me. I am using Ubuntu 9.10 (32bit).. and it refuses to compile for my machine. =/

It seems to work only when I use:

This is my level. Any chance I did this wrong? because its not working without gs2 and its acting goofier then goofy himself.
