Easy level editing...

SinisterSoft

If you create a map editor in Windows, you can embed your Gideros game (export a win32 version and zip it), extract it to temp then add a level file to the assets folder. Then run the win32.exe program from within your program (set the working dir to the place you extracted the zip to).

In your game: If this file is present then play the game and auto start that level (edit mode?).

Make sure the file is a .txt so it will not be encrypted.

eg:

local file=io.open("edit.txt","r") if file then local editdata=file:read() if editdata then level[1]=json.decode(editdata) EditMode=true end file:close() end
