I need to use a void tile and then build the walls, floors and ceiling out of assets. The normal void tile doesn't have underwater Boolean.

edit:
I got this to work on my own.

Code: Select all

defineTile{
  name = "water_void",
  editorIcon = 192,
  color = {0,0,0,255},
  solid = false,
  builder = "dungeon",
  automapTile = “water”,
  underwater = true,
}

edit2: New problem. I set automapTile = water, but it the map is still drawing the tile as ground instead of water. Any ideas?

It's quite true. There is an "underwater" element, but it's little bit different

To correctly define tile, you must define two elements :

First, the model of the floor/wall/ceiling you'll use on the tileset in the models.lua =>

Code: Select all

defineObject{
   name = "water_floor_tile",
   components = {
      {
      class = "Model",
      model = "mod_assets/models/env/my_tile_model.fbx",
      }
   }
}

Secondly, you can add the model to the Tile definition in the tiles.lua =>

Code: Select all

defineTile{
   name = "user_underwater_tiles",
   editorIcon = 192,
   color = {0,180,200,255},
   solid = false,
   builder = "dungeon",
   underwater = true,
   ceiling = { "dungeon_ceiling", 100 },
   wall = { "dungeon_wall", 100 },
   floor = { "water_floor_tile", 100 },
   ceilingVariations = false,
   automapTile = "water",
}

and there, you got a tileset especially for underwater

For the editor, you'll have to add a water_surface element and it will draw your water on the map AND in the game.

Since all I needed was to change what the map tile was, I found an easier solution. I used defineobject with automaptile = water, instead of definetile. then I can place these invisible helper objects and it makes the map look like water on the tile they are on.
