O alriqht. I added the pixel movement to a new project that's small and no lag xD. So I think it may be the size of the project.
| |
I tried this with a game with a lot of animals with AI. Needless to say, it lagged a lot, but after implementing the included performance optimization for AI, speed very much improved.

Ok thanks ill try that when I get the chance.

Even if the mobs have no AI and are just stationary, the library still calls their movement proc. If a mob isn't moving it doesn't do much, but with enough mobs it'll still bog the server down. I intended it to be easy to add to your game, so I'm glad to hear that it was easy for you to add and that it made a big difference. Because the library increases the framerate this is the type of problem that may never come up in other BYOND games. | |
This is looking good! I've always thought the worst thing about BYOND is its lack of pixel based movement. Problem solved.
| |
Looks good, not sure if I'll need it, but it's a good library to have just in case.
Bug: When you jump, you sometimes go through dense objects. | |
Extremely powerful, easy to learn, and fun to play with; what else could you possible ask for in a library?

You should add the key directions:
SOUTHEAST,SOUTHWEST,NORTHEAST & NORTHWEST i mean, you move those directions, but the user dir will be something diferent. as an example: I use base icons with the directions above, but they dont respond! I have alreaddy fixed that problem for myself, so you should do it for the next ones that downloads... | |
Extremely useful lib! The documentation is outstanding.

The documentation includes the answer to that. You usually must change some things.
EDIT: By some things I meant some things in your game. | |
You should just need to include the library into your project (see this video for an example of how it works). If you include it into an existing project of a significant size, you may have some features in the project that won't work anymore. It's best to include the library in a new project.

Great library. I am currently working on a project using this, and I am very excited about it!

Pro, of coarse!
| |
Highly usefull library recommended to ALL
| |
How do you use the library? My Dream maker refuses to read the code... to I have to have it all in the Library to work?
