Many objects share the same attributes. The attributes in the list below have the same function for every object that uses these.
| Field | Description | Possible values | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| startPosition | Determines the default location of the object | Position ([ x ] [ y ]) | |
| endPosition | The object will move between “startPosition” and “endPosition” in case “endPosition” is not equal to “startPosition”. If the object is affected by a button it will move to “endPosition” while the button is pressed | Position ([ x ] [ y ]) | |
| position | Determines the location of the object. | Position ([ x ] [ y ]) | |
| animationDuration | Determines the time an object needs to travel from “startPosition” to “endPosition” (only works if the object is not affected by a button) | Number | |
| size | Determines the size of an object | Size ([ width ] [ height ]) | |
| angle | Determines the angle of the object. Can be changed using the "rotate" tool. | Number | |
| mirrorX | Determines if the object is mirrored horizontally. This box is automatically ticked when you mirror your map with CTRL - ALT - M | Yes / No | |
| name | The name of the object. Used to make the object react to buttons, turrets death, etc. | Text | |
| parallax | Will make the object move slower and follow the camera | -1 till 1 | Number |
| depth | With this you can put an object in the foreground or in the background. The higher the number the more in the foreground the texture is and vice versa | Number | |
| existIfArenaWallsEnabled | Determines if the object will appear when arena walls are enabled (deathmatch mode) | Yes / No | |
| existIfArenaWallsDisabled | Determines if the object will appear when arena walls are disabled (deathmatch mode) | Yes / No | |
| frozen | Prevent an object to be selected in the editor. You can use the "Unfreeze" icon to make it selectable again. | Yes / No | |
| hidden | Hide an element (the object will only be hidden in the editor). Will only make namedArea and textures invisible. | Yes / No |
animationCurveEditor[ | ]
When you click an option like "Position" the little box above may appear. This is the animationCurveEditor and it allows you to animate the selected value. This can be used for example to make an object move, change it's color over time, etc.
Defining how the animation change[ | ]
There's 4 boxes on the top that will define how the value will change
No animation[ | ]
The first box is the default option. The value will not be animated.
Saw animation[ | ]
Move from the two values at the same speed
Sine wave[ | ]
Starts up slow an speeds up to your set speed then ends slowly before restarting
Pulse Animation[ | ]
The animation will jump between two values.
Strength[ | ]
Determines how much the value will be changed. For instance if you set it to "0.5" the value will move from "value - 0.5" to "value + 0.5"
PeriodMin and PeriodMax[ | ]
Affects the speed. (How much time it takes for it to move from point A to point B). The biggest the 2 values, the slower the animation will be.
PeriodMin is the minimum amount of time it will take for the object to sway back and forth once.
PeriodMax is the maximum amount of time it will take for the object to sway back and forth once.
CentreOffset[ | ]
Can only be set between 0-1 and controls which way the the object will move.
-0-0.4: Starts on left side, moves right till max distance is reached and moves back to the starting position at a varying speed.
-0 is Instant while 0.1-4 are faster speeds than the set speed.
-0.6-1: Are the opposite of the above.
-0.5: Just makes it move back and forth at the same speed.
StartTime[ | ]
The time at which the animation will start.
WaitTime[ | ]
Sets the time to start again once the animation is completed.
