parallax size

[Morganis]

Hello all,
I wanted to ask about parallax mapping. I know you need a ! in front of the name and the width and hight have to be the same on the map as in the editor. I have a few maps already working right with the ! and the right sizes. I went to put a new map in the editor and it is named !throneroom.png. The size of the image in gimp is 624x2256. so i have 13x47 in the editor. I have rechecked a number of times and i dont see anything wrong. same as other working maps. problem is the map seems to repeat when test playing but the image in the editor is right. I cant see what is wrong here, thanks for any help.

the minimum map size is 17x13. You're smaller (13 is smaller than 17), so the engine has to repeat to fill up to minimum map size

EDIT:
to be more precice, the minimum map size is the screen size of your project. 17x13 is only the default screen size. If you use a plugin to change screen size, then the minimum sizes for your maps change to fit the screen.
