Agreed, a very good feature to have! I have made this mistake and have been having to correct it recently, ughMrDeathNote wrote:Yea, i actually have that implemented now. I could never see the point of making an amazing editor with a multitude of features and then make it so cumbersome to test the level, it's a must have in my opinion.N64vSNES wrote: If all goes to plan then level designing should be pretty enjoyable. EQ's Editor/toolkit lets you drop npcs into the game aswell as items and even attach scripts ( well the scripts arn't done yet ) and it works really well. One thing I suggest is a idea we got from AIGD is to invoke the main engine and play through the level because its kinda tediouse to save the map move it to the engine's data folder and load it in.

Re: Byte-Me Games Development Thread
Ok guys so i thought i owed everyone an update. I've started recording devlopent log 2. It would be a hell of a lot easier if my brother would get off his ass and do some fucking work but it's not a perfect world :p. I thought i'd give you guys a list of things that will be coming up:
- A look at the re-design of the engine
- A look at the new component system
- Map editor additions
- Multi- platform library (O no he didn't!!)
- Top secret website(Shhhhhh don't tell anyone)
- Art? (We'll see how that goes lol)
I think it's a pretty comprehensive list, i have a lot giong on at the minute with work and stuff. We're pushing to hit a fairly unrealistic deadling but that's pretty much par for the course in the software business. Thoughts, ideas, suggestions? If so, please keep them to yourself . Only joking guys, let me know what you think...

Re: Byte-Me Games Development Thread
Hey guys, I've finally gotten round to creating another video. I haven't had that much time to work on the game recently so there aren't any huge leaps in progress but I thought I should post something to show we're still alive. As always we want to hear from you guys so if you have any thoughts, please share them and if you really like the videos you can subscribe as well.
