Map Height

Post by Chaos »

I have a question to ask about the maximum height/depth of tiles, i noticed that if you use the move tile up/down keys that you can move them higher or lower than the height bar on the side of the screen the thing is does the game eventually cut off your character at a certain point if you try to move that character past a certain height/depth?

I think the only limitation is where you put your level top and bottom. If im not mistaken, height is irrelevant. I have a building that is several stories in one map and my character has been able to go all the way to the roof. I think you could literally make a mountain and it wouldn't matter.

alright well thats pretty cool the reason i asked tho, is i made like this underground wearhouse thing that was pretty far down maybe like 3 stories underground and for some reason my guy just dropped dead so maybe it was just a one time glitch or something.

probably just a one time thing or maybe he was poisoned or something? Maybe it was a ghoul with fear the reaper?

OTB told me that there is a -/+128 limitation, if I remember well. I tried and was able to go like 500 above 0 recently. If you'll stick with -/=128 you should be fine, though.

Cheers,

k thanks for the input, no the character was a human wearing APA and i had him start right at the top of a ramp i started to go down the ramp and he just dropped dead but meh whatever, and also the 128 might be enough i hope it is higher, (like u said u got it up to 500 Flame) because i am trying to make a mission that takes place mostly in pretty much i giant skyscraper like building where the top 4-6 stories are half demolished from explosions of some sort.

Chaos, remember that it will get the game to go really slow the more stories you add.

well i actually got an idea to do maybe about four 6-10 story buildings (not sure where it will start to get real slow, maybe only 5 story) and have them all connected via catwalks.
