in a previous question asked here:how-to-create-a-hexagon-world-map @Tim Holt has provided code that does the job that i'm wanted to do, the only difference I would like is to have it as squares rather than hex. Is this easy to convert, or is there a better way? thank you.

I didn't look too closely, but the code in that answer was heavily involved with hex calculations -- like figuring out where the mouse is pointing on the hex grid. This is trivial if the tile is a square, you wouldn't even need to examine this carefully. The same would be true for most of that code. So I suggest starting from scratch, but using the concepts / code you need from that example if you find yourself stuck. Start with a 2 dimensional array, each element containing a value for the type of tile it is and which directly maps to actual tile images with a set width defined as a constant somewhere. |
