Title: Naija start position
Post by: tablatom on February 22, 2012, 06:36:37 pm

Hi All,

New to modding, but experienced programmer.

I've created a map bitmap png and successfully imported it into my mod. The only problem I have is that Naija is in the middle of the rock!

Is there a way to configure the start position for Naija?

Thanks

Tom

Create a node in the map called "naijastart" and naija will spawn at the location on load. Tons of great info on the wiki: http://aquariawiki.ryanballantyne.name/wiki/index.php/Main_Page

In the template map, there is already a 'naijastart' node there, just move it somewhere where it fits you.

EDIT: Experienced programmer? Good, then be sure to read the scripting rules on the wiki, that the things you are doing will be compatible with newer versions. (which means: no globals, using the "v" table instead, use local variables where possible, and so on. Note that some of the articles/examples on the wiki are outdated and use the old (and now broken) way of writing scripts.)
