[UPDATE 13.1] Alesan99's Entities (Clear Pipes, Tracks, & more!)

[alesan99]

You're editing the SMB mappack, not editing a custom one.

I thought he told me to edit 1-1

I specifically said to create a new mappack. and 1-1 is the first level of any mappack, not just smb

ok and that is... [Visible Confusion] where do they go?

Idk dude I'd tell you if I knew how to help you. unfortunately your meme doesn't help me come up with a solution.
No one else has had this much trouble

[I LÖVE LUA]

Maybe as a "fix", you could make it so it copies the save directory to the clipboard if you click the "Press M to open folder" (since I've read you can't open file:// schemed URLs in Android 7+).

That's a good idea but it already displays the path try to open the folder, and when he found the folders the game didn't recognize any files he put in.

I have came back from the dead to say New Page. Also, unless it already exists, have it to be possible for a custom enemy to fire things with the speed based on the direction it is moving. If it already exists, I think the most likely candidate would be “spawnsetparameters” and then x speed and y speed or something like that.

I found a bug

Sorry this replay was late, I didn't notice the new page

I have 1 question, does the game detect if there's a file in the folder or look for the folder?

[alesan99]

I have 1 question, does the game detect if there's a file in the folder or look for the folder?

Neither, the game sends a request for a filepath and the low-level stuff is handled by the engine and your device.
This isn't the issue, you showed in your video that you can save and load files, so it DOES work. Don't worry about the technical stuff.

Anyway, just to make sure, I'm going back to the basics.
- When you create a new mappack, it will create a folder called "custom_mappack_1". I see you've already made mappacks, so look for this folder.
-- You installed mari0 to your SD Card. You should look in your SD card first for the files.
--- In your file browser select "SD Card". Then go to android > data > love.to.mario > files > save > mari0_android > alesans_entities
-- If you can't find it or the mappacks folder is empty, then look in your internal storage (its the storage that not called "SD")
--- In your file browser select "Internal storage". Then go to android > data > love.to.mario > files > save > mari0_android > alesans_entities

- BTW When you try to click the "open folder" button in the custom tab of the level editor it will tell you where to go.

- In one of the first screenshots you posted you put "sm3dw.mp3" in the mappacks folder. I re-read your response to this and I think you
misunderstood what I said.
-- What you did: "love.to.mario > files > save > mario_android > alesans_entities > mappacks > sm3dw.mp3"
-- Should be : "love.to.mario > files > save > mario_android > alesans_entities > mappacks > custom_mappack_1 > music > sm3dw.mp3"
--- there's going to already be a folder called music, so if that folder isn't there then you're in the wrong place

- Download a mappack so you can see how its done.
-- What if you download a mappack and put it into the "mappacks" folder, does that work?

[QÜ!/\/TÖ/\/]

tons of fun new entities coming soon in my mod

I made a reply but it got ruined so now I don’t really wanna type everything all over again

Spedrn: I installed it to my device storage since it isn’t possible to move it to Sd card and then I moved it to the sd card and moved it back, also my Android only allows read in my Sd card, nothing can write to my sd and can only write to my device storage. also there wasn’t any mappack folder because I would’ve seen it in my recents, also there wasn’t a custom mappack folder in mappacks I checked while making this reply. Also the only reason I moved Mari0 to my sad card was because the time I got it was when I was running out of space. So yea don’t know what else to do

[alesan99]

Well im guessing it didn't work so its time to give up

[Bromaster]

that had to be the most active the forum's ever been

Impressive! Will you release the breakout code?

It would be easy to recreate with custom enemies i bet.

[BigBirdo]

Hey! Thanks for making the mod! There's an issue I've been having where, if you put only three levels in a world, it doesn't go to the next world. I'm trying to remake Super Mario Land in a mappack, and SML only has three levels per world.

You should use an animation that sends the player to the next world.
SML has different level endings already so it shouldn't be a problem. If you were using the ? balls it should be simple to create a custom enemy that acts like one and also triggers the animation.

[BigBirdo]

I've been using the axe at the end of level 1-3, 2-3, and 3-3, and I think that's what makes the most sense.

[alesan99]

If you don't want to make a custom axe you can make 1-4 instantly send you to the next world.

[noveltyman]

Can I give some entity suggestions?

Rex (SMW)
Blargg (SMW)
Nipper (SMB3)
Snifit (SMB2)
SMB2 bosses
Ostro (SMB2)

[WilliamFrog]

You could make those with custom enemies

[Meculus]

When I have a gelcannon in multiplayer, my friend doesn't actually have any gel on his end when I shoot some.

[Meculus]

Also, it gets de-synced a lot.

What are the editor keybinds?

[TheSkullCreeper!]

What are the editor keybinds?

Not all, but some:
E - Replace all with _____
M - Minimap
Q - Switch between Tiles and Entities
+ - Assist Mode
\ - Quick Test (also saves)
0-9 - Tile Hotkeys (?)
Shift in Tile Menu to select multiple Tiles
Ctrl - You'll see :)
Minus Sign, [~ or Tab (?)] - BG Layer

[Meculus]

I recreated flip-swap panels! (They are on-off blocks swapped by custom jump animations, but some are switched by a custom spin thing I made.)

[Meculus]

One more question: is there a place where all the keybinds are listed?

I don't think so. Someone could make it tho.

Darn, would be nice if that was potentially added as a feature in a future update. Thanks for answering my question anyways.

Very unlikely.
I would have to go through every single thing that has a sprite and redo them to make sure they allow for sprites of any size.

Just out of curiosity what happens otherwise?

A: Crops the Sprite

B: Resizes it

C: B, then A

D: The game doesn’t operate

E: The game ignores it

F: Other

It resizes it to fit in the sprites boundaries

Also Turkish has been added

Can you add SMM2 Twisters as default entities. I much likely see that the custom enemy thing is a bit overrated for me.

"overrated"... is this a joke
