SharkerrBlue 7 Posted November 20, 2015 So, especially sprite (or just sprite/character) the only thing I know is about what happen when I input the name of a picture like this: $picture. But what happen if I use: !picture? And if there is more symbol to make a change of a picture in the game.. please let me know and tell me what does it do. Thanks!

Seriel 830 Posted November 20, 2015 $ means that it is a single sprite and not a sheet of 8. (See the RTP) ! = All I know is if you want a sprite to be exactly on the tile grid, use it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SharkerrBlue 7 Posted November 20, 2015 Oh, so there are only 2 symbols($ and !)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I though "!" was for the bigger sprites so when using bigger than the 32px heigh, the overlay passage for the tiles are a little corrected to match the sprites height - such as using a tall sprite and the above tile is an *. I know it's not 100% accurate on how it fixes this, but that was my assumption. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't really know. All I know is for characters that fit like tiles, you need it. Adding an exclamation point (!) to the beginning of a file name cancels the application of the four-pixel offset, and also turns off the translucent effect applied by the bush attribute. This is used mainly for object-type characters on maps, such as doors and treasure chests. It can also be used in combination with the dollar sign ($) special character. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+ Takeo212 1,079 Posted November 20, 2015 Hmm fair enough - I rarely use them, but I nrmally make tiles based on the bottom of the tile anyway, so that seems rather strange. Ah well, can't argue with the manual! xD Thanks Jackus - sorry for the intrusion~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
