It's very uncomfortable to write multiline description in editor. I use steam textfield to write text, then ctrl+c and ctrl+v into editor textfield. It works, but you cannot see text etc and "editing" is possible only with full clear (shift+end, then delete) and rewriting.
Ok, many thanks for the feedback!

Games related up to yesterday i was looking forward to Torchlight 2 but now this desire completely vanished. It's also interesting how iterative the dungeon creation process is, at least the way i'm building a dungeon. There also goes a lot of time into tweaking and testing. I wish i had more time to play around with it.

Btw. how do you clear the debug window's content? For some strange reason it keeps telling me a warning that a spawn location is invalid at (18,15,0,1) but there doesn't exist such a spawner, maybe i once misplace one before (the warning already appeared before using the textfile).

The messages are not cleared. I just use a lua script with

Code: Select all

for i=1, 100, 1 do
    print("")
end

If in editor's fullscreen mode push shift+F5 and then push F key or ESC key this is doesn't work. I mean don't returns to editor window.

You can type clear into the console to, well, clear it. :)

Alright, thanks for pointing this out. We'll have to fix it. 8-)

Thanks, the easiest things are often the hardest to find out, but wait, how do i access the console?

And a second one: How can i translate the party (or other entities) in order to move it to a new location (x,y,z,r)?

Hi there,

I would try the editor for some help but it seems there is a problem, maybe because i'm french o/.

Anyway, yes i activated betas in the property tab, and it downloads the beta, but still in 1.1.4. Here is the pics : http://imgur.com/a/Ym1up

Edit @Petri : All files verified, no additional download.
Edit² : I relaunched Steam and there's 27.4 mb just downloading. It's ok, i'm in o/.

Try Verify Integrity of Files in Legend of Grimrock -> Properties in Steam client.

I am having a strange issue with script editing:

When I edit a script in the "Inspector", the inspector seems to "die". Meaning I can't select any entity from the map, until I activate some other window (For example WinAMp) and return back to the level editor. I think I didn't see this yesterday with my initial test scripts. Is it perhaps that my script has a bug in it or something?

Now that I try to find better steps to reproduce this, it suddenly stopped appearing. Very annoying! I will post again if I find a way to repro this...

PS.
I would really like a zoom feature to the dungeon map... Also some kind of filtering on the map might make things simpler. (For example a filter that hides entities that affect only the dungeon roof / fool) -- I thing these would make it easier to select and edit stuff.
