Hello Guys. I'm here with another update! Super Happy to announce I'll be at Pax East with the team at the Kickstarter booth showcasing FictionSphere! Woo hoo!
I wanted to share some cool new updates as well.
The Engine rework is coming along nicely and i've been working on some of the stage. I've built a new tool as well for my team who don't have a copy of GMS2 lying around to allow them to add sprites and objects to view them as if they were in game. Its really helpful to me too considering my project is getting larger and compile times get longer as well. It allows me to find the offset and xdist/ydist to clamp the sprites / objects to each other. Additionally It's built through GMHTML5 with some Javascript/Jquery involved. I might release it later on in the forums so it may help others out with finding the offsets for their sprites easier. I don't know any other easier way (at least to my knowledge) except to manually calculate it / recompile wait for the game...etc which a lot of trial and error base and really takes time away from development. If you guys know a better way feel free to share your methods.
Here is a WIP Level as well
