Okay, we all know what tilesets are, right?


And tiles.


We talk about them all the time.


Well, try to imagine teaching a camp full of summer-brained kids and you realize you have to be pretty doggone clear about things.


So I ask, is a tileset the full set you associate with a map, or is it any of the tile files you use in your game?


Is this a tileset - all six files?


Dungeon_A1


Dungeon_A2


Dungeon_A4


Dungeon_A5


Dungeon_B


Dungeon_C


So, like, you cannot say Dungeon_C is a tileset by itself?


But we do all the time. We post a 512 by 512 image and call it a tileset.


But there is no good in-between word. We have "tile" for one tile. We have "tileset" for the whole deal. But what do we have for one file?(I am obsessing. I can do that in General Discussion, right?)


The help file just calls files like Inside_B "Sets," and the subdivisions of A tiles are called "groups." But it is really awkward to say "I have a tileset for my dungeon made up of three sets. I only have four groups in my Set A, and a Set B and Set C."


Bleh. I crave clarity.

Our latest feature is an interview with... me?!

People4_2 (Capelet off and on) added!

Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
Can someone recommend some fun story-heavy RPGs to me? Coming up with good gameplay is a nightmare! I was thinking of making some gameplay platforming-based, but that doesn't work well in RPG form*. I also was thinking of removing battles, but that would be too much like OneShot. I don't even know how to make good puzzles!
one bad plugin combo later and one of my followers is moonwalking off the screen on his own... I didn't even more yet on the new map lol.
