SDFS
Stuff-Done Flags (SDFs) are the basic way of keeping track of whether something has been done or not. They are, as the docs describe, essentially a grid of numbers that is sized 30 by 300, with each number able to range between 0 and 256. The docs have a fairly good description of them, so I won't say more than that you should have some handle on what they are before continuing with this article.

EDIT: It would be really awesome if you could get icon adjustment to work in the 3D Editor. Really, really awesome.

Shame about it not working on anything but OSX. Maybe want to make a note of that on your download site, save people the trouble. Maybe I'll get a better mac one of these days.

The editor does not show floors that have been adjusted using fl_floor_height_pixels

You misunderstand the effect (maybe). From the BoA Editor Docs: "The number of pixels up graphics and creatures drawn on this space are shifted." The floor itself isn't affected (I assume). Actually, I didn't realize such a thing existed, so I'll have to test in the game and fix the 3D Editor anyway.

---

It actually does shift the actual floor icon up. This is a bug, however. I reported it to him when I noticed it and he said he would investigate it.

---

Nooooooo. I like having the floor drawn up or downward. It creates some nifty illusions that I use. I can put floors at different heights, but look as if they are the same height. This is very nice.

Well, It was compiled with "XCode." . . . . I have what is known as a "9.1 OS mac", and so therefore it won't work it just says it was damadged or unusable by my computer. I don't know what "Xcode" is, but is there possibly an equivalent writing program that would allow it to be in a format that a mac of lesser power, say one OS 9.1 could use.

. . . . I swear if you build this program for me i will make a couple . . . . possibly even several, or even a few scenarios. I just hate those 2D squares so much . . . Coding isn't so bad, its all just words . . . . its drawing those terrain squares that takes forever. The concept of this 3D program is great btw

Bug:

If you create a large (64x64) town and do not have pit or solid stone at the border then the terrain will strectch inward and cover up what ever terrain you have placed.

I'm sorry, but it is a little hard to explain.

Isaac, have you gotten any sort of response about hosting? I have a bunch of open web space, so if you need someone else to host it, I can do it.

If you dont want to share walls, you can add two tiles width of blackness between one room and the next. Clog the blackness with walls of T sections, and there should be a seperater of rooms, WITHOUT limiting another rooms potential. It takes up alot of space, though, and if the player uses far sight, he will relize the builders built a pit between two rooms ;)
