Rocks'n'Diamonds

If you'll test your level while properties of custom element is open, you'll have all standard toolbox buttons instead of special CE buttons (copy to, copy from, swap, copy and paste). Then click on Draw single items button, you'll get visual replacement of three top buttons with CE buttons, but onl...

Yet another graphics trick test. This time, you'll have different objects on the right to "collect". Only 5 levels, then it just ends on the null one. It's just a test, so not sure about finishing, rather just using this trick on another levelset. sksdf.png tog_missions.zip (also, some gameplay bugs...

There's two bugs I stumbled across: For some reason sometimes the game mixes the music info and the music and plays wrong music on corresponding music info. For example, in my Reflektor it plays Sparkling remix music on Virtual Monotone text, then Starworx v2 music on Sparkling remix text, and then ...

I especially like the MOD music -- could you please post the playlist?

Oh, sorry, I somehow missed that message, noticed just now... whatever. Sure, here:
4-mat of Anarchy - starworx_v2.mod
Baroque - virtual-monotone.mod
Strobo - sparkling_remix.mod

I noticed once there's that "Rocks'n'diamonds level" graphics which I've never seen before, and I just got really curious what R'n'D looked like in very first years of development. I checked Screenshots page, and screenshots of the game are from 1.3.0. I downloaded R'n'D 1.3.0 which I can't play bec...

I should really visit rocksndiamonds.git more often since I just discovered the new addition global anim class "pointer", even though this feature was added on March 18th. So I went to graphics folder as quick as I could and quickly (tautology) made a graphicsinfo with two already preexisting in the...

The Copy and Paste Change settings of custom element buttons has no clicking animation. (don't worry about these rotating lines in the top right corner, it's just a test anim I forgot to turn off) Honeycam 2019-04-07 02-17-23.gif I checked if the "pressed_xoffset" lines are present for these buttons...

Oh, no-no, that's not intended, I might have screwed up somewhere with the template level, now fixed, just redownload

Just as a side note: The screenshots above show a playfield viewport with a fixed-size background image (that yellow border). When using a dynamically sized playfield, this would not look correct, as the playfield background would not be resized, too, but only the playfield area. Therefore, using d...

I might have mentioned before, but the point is that if I'm creating dynamic window, I can't really test it by myself without monitors, smartphones or tablets with different screen resolutions (4:3, 16:10, 16:9, 2:1 and etc.). Stretching the game window won't work since the game forces the game scre...

yes

This should already work, using the ".position" parameter -- BD2K3 also uses this (and also the classic "toons"). Maybe I'm not using it right, but I can get it to work as intended. It still keeps the same position on the left side instead of right as I intent to: global.anim_1.MENU.position: right...

However, what you can do is using "[mm_default].exploding" to redefine explosions for all MM and DF style elements. Well, yeah, that cound work, but since cells are exploding more often than bombs, I, maybe, should leave it for now. On other side, I could replace kettles with cell sprite and do def...

Whatever, here's a preview video:

Well, looks like for now I can't do explosion animation for an individual MM/DF element since only kettles has their unique animation.
