This board requires you to be registered and logged-in to view hidden content.

So the main thing is it uses "random fun" with checks for if it can be built at the random spot.

In the notification, note that it uses a very low probability of actually sending the notification.

Can you provide the emergency vehicle code? I have the code to increase number of emergency vehicles but do not respond when I call an emergency.

How does the animated tag work?

[Lobby]

It's a legacy attribute to animate your buildings. For that, simply provide multiple frames to the "frames" attribute and then use "animated":true to let the game know that it should use these frames to animate the building. Nowadays I recommend to use separate animation objects instead that you can then reference to in the "animation" attribute.

What about waste disposal?

[Mako1137]

Hey @Example of @Lobby, what is the tag for waste disposal?

[Mako1137]

Question:

Does the "ordinal" tag have to start from 0?

[CommanderABab]

No, you can use negative(-1) to always be first. High number to always be last.

are there no tags for rails?

[Bearbear76]

are there no tags for rails?

Do you mean?

Code: Select all

"flag train": true

EDIT: You can always look at how the game implements railways here.

anyone know tow to make the building does'nt need water and energy supply?

I think

"water": 0,
"power": 0

Is there a way I can make a decoration spawn on map randomly on random location? Similar to spawn tag but evaluated every given time and only on empty tiles.

I'm thinking of a plugin like easter egg thing.

I found this example from lobby

[
{
"id":"$myspawntest00",
"type":"decoration",
"width":1,
"height":1,
"frames":[{"x":0,"y":0,"w":32,"h":16}],
"needs water":false,
"needs land":false,
"draw ground":true,
"spawn":
{
"p":0.01,
"height":-600,
"radius":600
}
}
]

I think

"water": "-0"
"power": "-0"

This is best coded as

Code: Select all

"water": 0,  "power": 0,

as numbers don't need quotes in json and unneeded negative signs are discouraged.

"influence level1"
"influence level2"

What are these influence keys for? Doesn't seem to be anything on them anywhere in the documentation that I can access.

map color

Only for terrain and zones. For example:

Code: Select all

"map color":{"r":255,"g":255,"b":0}

will make the terrain look yellow in the map

this should be updated, map color definitely also works for roads
