I was wondering if I can make bigger icons than 32x32?
Like to make a boss or something?
I didn't find anywhere that could explain how, or even if the engine can support icons like that, but I was just wondering if it's possible. If not, maybe I can code it to make it "zoom" ingame?
I'm kinda new to DM and I found it quite an insteresting kind of programming, I thought I gave it a second shot (I tried once but couldn't do anything worth playing).
Any help appreciated :3

Yes. BYOND by default supports just about any size of icon you can throw at it. Icons with dimensions higher than 256 cannot be edited properly in the DMI editor, and you cannot use larger icons with TILED_ICON_MAP format (most rips and anime games use this mapping format, but it's deprecated.)

Simply set the icon size in the DMI editor at the top right before creating any icon states.
So if I wanna make an icon bigger than 256x256, I can use another program?
More or less. Animated icons that large aren't really a good idea, though, so it's not really a normal occurrence.
I can see why. Alright, thanks bro.
