The Upcoming Release of Trizbort

K.V.

The Pixie said: "The next version of Trizbort should have a Quest export function, so you can export your map into a new Quest game."

Holy crap!

I just did this!


1. Clone the current Trizbort repo from GitHub.

2. Open Trizbort.sln with Visual Studio 2017.

3. Build it.

4. Run it.

5. Create a map.

  • I made a two-room map.
  • I marked one of the rooms as the "Start Room" (which automatically created the player object in that room).
    image
  • I added an exit between the rooms on the map.
  • I added a lamp object to the second room (just for kicks).
    image
  • I exported to Quest.

That is freaking SWEET!!!


NOTE: I only named them "first room" and "second room" for testing purposes (and due to lack of creativity).


Is there a way to set "take" to true?

(If not, I'm DEFINITELY not complaining! This is awesome!)

What does that mean? Have object takeable? Trizbort does not have a flag for that, so I did not include it. Quest export does support m, f, !, s, s and 2 (with 1 by default).

Yep. That's what I meant.

It's not like the game doesn't require a little editing after an export anyway. I was really just making sure I wasn't missing something.

I'm not complaining or nitpicking, you see.

This is seriously awesome!

I'm making games (or at least worlds) with it right now.


I'm thinking this is a good option to enable:

Ooh!

You can export/copy Quest code to your clipboard with no header and paste that into a library element!

<library>
  //PASTE HERE!!!
</library>

You can also put it into your existing game file in full code view, just paste it in above the last line "".


@ The Pixie @ K.V

I have added a blog entry about this.

I will add it to the docs, if I can work out a suitable place...
