Map Layers

[NutJob]

Question 1: Has anyone successfully retrieved information about the layers, be it specific:

Code: Select all

-- fake code
tile_type, floor_height, ceiling_height, {list, of, objects, at, this, coordinate}, other, variables = map.layer:getInfo(x,y)

or general:

Code: Select all

-- more fake code
table = getMapLayer(level)
-- table containing all the layers much like the generated layout in dungeons.lua

Question 2: Is there way to force objects to a certain point within a tile? I was looking at the MapGraphicsComponent and there's a few curious methods that may do this. I could be wrong. The result I'm looking for requires more in-depth placement then just facing a cardinal direction something like theObj.controller.pushObj(280,891) from it's starting location on a tile. (Example Use: push a few levers so they're all lined up next to one another on one wall; they do, only, require a mouse click to use so I see no reason to have them bunched together, if possible).

for #2: Not really sure if this is what you mean, but try putting two levers ontop of eachother and then try this

Code: Select all

local t = lever_1:getWorldPosition()
t[2] = 0.7
print(t)
lever_1:setWorldPosition(t)

That is EXACTLY what I needed to know! Thank you!

Code: Select all

	local t = lever_1:getWorldPosition()
	for m,n in ipairs(t) do
		print(m,n)
	end
	t[1] = 84.5
	lever_1:setWorldPosition(t)

Now I can do this!

I would love to know how to access the layers as well. It seems like that is still an known in what people have been able to figure out.

Man... the hoops I had to hop through to get that to work in LoG1.

I'll just chip-in with my memory-like puzzle that looks like this:
