* If the player runs the PlayAsBird cheat they shouldn't be able to win
a high score on a level, so at level startup it detects whether the
DefaultPlayerCharacterDoodad has changed from default on a level that
doesn't use the Start Flag to set a specific doodad - and immediately
marks the session as cheated
* New doodad: Invisible Warp Door
* All warp doors require the player to be grounded (if affected by
gravity) to open them. No jumping or falling thru and opening
a warp door mid-air!
* Title Screen now randomly selects from a couple of levels.
* Title Screen: if it fails to load a level it sets up a basic
blank level with a wallpaper instead.
* New developer shell command: titlescreen <level>
Opens the MainScene with a custom user level as the background.
* Add Auto-save to the Editor to save your drawing every 5 minutes
* Add a MenuBar to the Play Scene for easier navigation to other
features of the game.
* Doodad JS API: time.Since() now available.
* Adds pkg/savegame to store user progress thru Level Packs.
* The savegame.json is mildly tamper resistant by including a checksum
along with the JSON body.
* The checksum combines the JSON string + an app secret (in savegame.go)
+ user specific entropy (stored in their settings.json). If the user
modifies their save file and the checksum becomes invalid the game
will not load the save file, acting like it didn't exist, resetting
all their high scores.
Updates to the Story Mode window:
* On the LevelPacks list: shows e.g. "[completed 0 of 3 levels]" showing
a user's progress thru the level pack.
* Below the levels on the Detail screen:
* Shows an indicator whether the level is completed or not.
* Shows high scores (fastest times beating the level)
* Shows a padlock icon if levels are locked and the player hasn't
reached them yet. Pops up an Alert modal if a locked level is
clicked on.
Scoring is based around your fastest time elapsed to finish the level.
* Perfect Time (gold coin): player has not died during the level.
* Best Time (silver coin): player has continued from a checkpoint.
In-game an elapsed timer is shown in the top left corner along with the
gold or silver coin indicating if your run has been Perfect.
If the user enters any Cheat Codes during gameplay they are not eligible
to win a high score, but the level will still be marked as completed.
The icon next to the in-game timer disappears when a cheat code has been
entered.
* SDL2 builds of the game now set their app window icon.
* Create/Edit Level window is updated to show a tabbed UI to create a
new Level or a new Doodad. The dedicated main menu button to create a
new doodad (which immediately prompted for its size) is replaced by
this new tab's UI.
* Edit Drawing/Play Level window is more responsive to smaller screen
sizes by drawing fewer columns of filenames.
* Bugfix: the Alert and Confirm modals always re-center themselves on
screen, especially to adapt between Portrait or Landscape mode on a
mobile device.
The title screen is now responsive to landscape mode. If the window is
not tall enough to show all the menu buttons (~600px) it will switch to
a horizontal layout with the title on the left and buttons on the right.
WIP "Story Mode" button that brings up a Level Packs selection window.
* The level scroll logic was getting a null pointer crash if you open a
doodad rather than a level file.
* Add a crosshair option to the level editor, configurable in the Game
Settings window.
* Recolor some of the region doodads
* Add command: `doodad edit-level --remove-actor` to remove actors from
your level.
* Tweak the player jump velocity from playtesting levels.
* Tweak max gravity speed to match player max velocity.
* Boy's script watches for his velocity to flip suddenly and stops
animations, limiting the moonwalking a bit.
* JS API: Self.GetVelocity() added.
* The "Giant Screenshot" feature takes a very long time, so it is made
asynchronous. If you try and run a second one while the first is busy,
you get an error flash. You can continue editing the level, even
playtest it, or load a different level, and it will continue crunching
on the Giant Screenshot and flash when it's finished.
* Updated the player physics to use proper Velocity to jump off the
ground rather than the hacky timer-based fixed speed approach.
* FlashError() function to flash "error level" messages to the screen.
They appear in orange text instead of the usual blue, and most error
messages in the game use this now. The dev console "error <msg>"
command can simulate an error message.
* Flashed message fonts are updated. The blue font now uses softer
stroke and shadow colors and the same algorithm applies to the orange
error flashes.
Some other changes to player physics:
* Max velocity, acceleration speed, and gravity have been tweaked.
* Fast turn-around if you are moving right and then need to go left.
Your velocity resets to zero at the transition so you quickly get
going the way you want to go.
Some levels that need a bit of love for the new platforming physics:
* Tutorial 3.level
* New keybind: 'v' to open a new Viewport in the Level Editor.
* New keybind: Backspace to close the topmost UI window,
and Shift+Backspace to close them all.
* Zoom has graduated out of experimental feature status. Still a bit
buggy but workable.
* Viewport windows now copy the Tool and BrushSize of the toplevel
editor, so drawing in and out of viewports works well.
* Viewport window UI improved: buttons to grow or shrink the window
size, refresh the actors, etc.
The game can now be played using only a touch screen! The left
mouse click (Button1) can now move and control the player
character.
* A box in the very middle of the screen is the "Use" button and
a deadzone for directional inputs.
* Anywhere outside the middle and to the left registers a Left
button, to the right a Right button, above the top of the middle
is a Jump button, and below the bottom of the middle is a down
input (for antigravity mode).
* Tight platforming is possible: above and below the middle box,
the left/right split is tight in the middle of the window. You
can get tight jumps if jumping or go below if you don't want to
jump. The left/right deadzone is only over the space of the Use
button.
If the player is idle for a while with no controller inputs, some
hints will fade in about the touch controls.
Note: the ScrollboxOffset to track the player character is changed
to 60,60 from 60,100 so the camera will track tighter to the player
and so the player will mostly be over the Use button on touch
controls as long as he's away from a level boundary.
Improvements to the Zoom feature:
* Actor position and size within your level scales up and down
appropriately. The canvas size of the actor is scaled and its canvas
is told the Zoom number of the parent so it will render its own
graphic scaled correctly too.
Other features:
* "Experimental" tab added to the Settings window as a UI version of the
--experimental CLI option. The option saves persistently to disk.
* The "Replace Palette" experimental feature now works better. Debating
whether it's a useful feature to even have.
Progress on the Zoom feature: when you zoom in and out, you can draw
shapes accurately onto the level. Seems a little buggy if you edit
while scrolling (as in drawing a very long line).
The title screen buttons are now more colorful.
The Doodad Properties window brings many features that used to be
available only in the `doodad` CLI tool into the Doodad Editor.
* In the Doodad Editor there is a new menubar item: "Doodad" which
corresponds to the "Level" menu when you're editing a level.
* The "Doodad" menu has two items:
- "Doodad Properties" (NEW)
- "Layers" (moved here from the Tools menu)
* The Doodad Properties window lets you edit the Title and Author values
of the doodad, as well as modify its Tags and manage its Script.
* Its script can be attached (browse for .js file on disk), its existing
script saved back to disk (dev shell prompt) or deleted altogether
from the doodad.
* You can create, modify, and delete Tags on the doodad.
Other changes:
* In the Level Editor, the "Level->Page Settings" menu is renamed to
"Level->Level Properties" to match with "Doodad->Doodad Properties"
and the pop-up window is retitled accordingly.
* The Exit Flag only exits if the Player touches it - not just any
mobile doodad!
* New Doodad: Checkpoint Flag. They update the player's spawn point
whenever the player passes one. The most recently activated
checkpoint is rendered brighter than the others.
* End Level Modal: the fake alert box window drawn by the Play Mode
is replaced with a fancy modal widget (similar to Alert and Confirm).
It handles level victory or failure conditions and can show or hide
all the buttons as needed.
* Gameplay: There is a "Retry from Checkpoint" option added, which
appears in the level failure modal. It will teleport you back to
the Start Flag or the last Checkpoint Flag you had touched, without
resetting the level -- your keys, unlocked doors, etc. will be
preserved so you can retry.
* Set a maximum speed on the "Camera Follows Actor" logic of 64
pixels per tick. This results in a smoother scrolling transition
when the player jumps to a new location on the map, such as by
a Warp Door.
* Update the default color palettes:
* All: Add a "hint" magenta color.
* Colored Pencil: Add a "darkstone" solid color.
Updates to the Doodads JavaScript API:
* SetCheckpoint(Point(x, y)): set the player character's spawn
position. Giving it Self.Position() is an easy way to set the
player spawn to your doodad's location.
New feature: link a Start Flag to another doodad in your level
and you will play as that doodad instead of Boy. All Creatures
are designed to be playable. Playing as "other" doodads leads
to interesting effects, like not being able to activate buttons,
switches, or warp doors and not having an inventory to pick up
keys. The Anvil is fun: it can destroy other mobile doodads by
jumping on them.
If the actor does not specify that it has gravity, the gameplay
starts in antigravity mode. This will be the vast majority of
non-mobile doodads and the Bird.
Other changes:
* The Blue and Red Azulians now share a doodad script.
* The Azulians AI is still to walk back and forth, pickup keys and
press buttons. The Blue Azulian walks slower than the red one.
* The Blue Azulian is no longer hidden from the doodads list.
* Actor UUID values in levels are now V1 UUIDs (time-ordered).
This will help to reliably resolve conflicts in draw order
of overlapping doodads (newest added to level wins).
* Link Tool: clicking on a pair of already-linked doodads will
now unlink them, so you don't have to delete one to delete
the link.
* Actor Tool: deleting an actor immediately calls PruneLinks()
to clean up any links that the deleted doodad might have.
* Install the new ui.TabFrame widget into the Settings and Doodad
Dropper windows to give them properly tabbed interfaces.
* Doodad Dropper's new tabs divide the list of doodads into categories
to make them easier to find.
* The officially defined categories so far are:
- Objects (Start/End Flags and Box)
- Doors (All locked doors and keys, Warp Doors, and Electric Door)
- Gizmos (All buttons, switches, state blocks/doors, Electric Door)
- Creatures (Blue/Red Azulian, Bird, Boy)
* The "All" tab of the Doodad Dropper will show every doodad regardless
of its category or whether it fit one of the official categories.
* How doodads are assigned categories is by a special "category" tag in
their metadata, e.g. "category=doors,gizmos" - multiple supported.
* pkg/loadscreen implements a global Loading Screen for loading heavy
levels for playing or editing.
* All chunks in a level are pre-rendered to bitmap before gameplay
begins, which reduces stutter as chunks were being lazily rendered on
first appearance before.
* The loading screen can be played with in the developer console:
$ loadscreen.Show()
$ loadscreen.Hide()
Along with ShowWithProgress(), SetProgress(float64) and IsActive()
* Chunker: separate the concerns between Bitmaps an (SDL2) Textures.
* Chunker.Prerender() converts a chunk to a bitmap (a Go image.Image)
and caches it, only re-rendering if marked as dirty.
* Chunker.Texture() will use the pre-cached bitmap if available to
immediately produce the SDL2 texture.
Other miscellaneous changes:
* Added to the Colored Pencil palette: Sandstone
* Added "perlin noise" brush pattern
Note: this commit introduces instability and crashes:
* New `asyncSetup()` functions run on a goroutine, but SDL2 texture
calls must run on the main thread.
* Chunker avoids this by caching bitmaps, not textures.
* Wallpaper though is unstable, sometimes works, sometimes has graphical
glitches, sometimes crashes the game.
* Wallpaper.Load() and the *Texture() functions are where it crashes.
* Levels and Doodad files will be written in gzip-compressed JSON format
* `boolProp compress-drawings false` to disable compression and save as
classic JSON format directly
* The game can still read uncompressed JSON files
The file size savings on some built-in assets:
* Tutorial 2.level: 2.2M -> 414K (82% smaller)
* warp-door-orange.doodad: 105K -> 17K (84% smaller)
* Got the level chunks AND the wallpaper to both scale UP and DOWN
consistently together.
* Trying to draw new pixels while zoomed in/out ends up offsetting the
pixels by 2X still. Still seems an issue between screen coordinates
and world coordinates. Zoom in 2X and try and draw a line 64px from
the corners of the screen? The committed line appropriately lands at
the 64px coord on the level data but, zoomed in, it appears 2X to the
right on the screen from where I dropped the cursor!
* When zooming OUT, the limit on number of chunks the viewport will try
and render is not increased, leaving dead space in the screen; more
chunks should render when there's room.
* Added a Settings window for game options, such as enabling the
horizontal toolbars in Edit Mode. The Settings window also has a
Controls tab showing the gameplay buttons and keyboard shortcuts.
* The Settings window is available as a button on the home screen OR
from the Edit->Settings menu in the EditScene.
* Bugfix: using WASD to move the player character now works better and
is considered by the game to be identical to the arrow key inputs. Boy
now updates his animation based on these keys, and they register as
boolean on/off keys instead of affected by key-repeat.
* Refactor the boolProps: they are all part of usercfg now, and if you
run e.g. "boolProp show-all-doodads true" and then cause the user
settings to save to disk, that boolProp will be permanently enabled
until turned off again.
* New command-line tool: doodle-admin for signing license keys for
users. Includes functions to initialize a keypair, sign license keys
and validate existing keys.
* The Main Menu screen shows a blue "Register Game" button in the bottom
right corner of the screen, for unregistered users only.
* In Edit Mode, there is a "Help -> Register" menu item that opens the
License Window.
* The License UI Window lets the user select the license.key file to
register the game with. If registered, a copy of the key is placed in
Doodle's profile directory and the licensee name/email is shown in the
License UI window.
* Unregistered games will show the word "(shareware)" next to the title
screen version number and Edit Mode status bar.
* No restrictions are yet placed on free versions of the game.
On small screen sizes like the Pinephone, the toolbars in the Level
Editor are best made horizontal across the top and bottom of the screen
leaving more room for the drawing.
Enable it with a boolProp for now, and then reopen the level editor:
boolProp horizontalToolbars true
When launching `doodle -w mobile` it will automatically enable this
option.
* The scrollbox by which the game follows the player character has been
revised, it is now an offset away from the window's center instead of
fixed pixel distances from the window's edges.
* Mobile form-factor (Pinephone) now scrolls OK instead of jerking back
and forth rapidly when moving left.
In the Level Editor, the "Level->Attached files" menu opens the
FileSystem Window, which shows a paginated list of attached files and a
"Delete" button to remove them.
- Custom doodads which also exist locally can be deleted from the
level's filesystem at any time.
- If a custom doodad does NOT exist locally, and one of them is still
placed somewhere within the level, you can not delete it.
- You can't delete the custom wallpaper image IF the level is still
using it. Change to a default wallpaper and then you can delete the
custom wallpaper image.
* The Publisher is all hooked up. No native Save File dialogs yet, so
uses the dev shell Prompt() to ask for output filename.
* Custom-only or builtin doodads too can be stored in the level's file
data, at "assets/doodads/*.doodad"
* When loading the embedded level in the Editor: it gets its custom
doodads out of its file, and you can drag and drop them elsehwere,
link them, Play Mode can use them, etc. but they won't appear in the
Doodad Dropper if they are not installed in your local doodads
directory.
* Fleshed out serialization API for the Doodad files:
- LoadFromEmbeddable() looks to load a doodad from embeddable file
data in addition to the usual places.
- Serialize() returns the doodad in bytes, for easy access to embed
into level data.
- Deserialize() to parse and return from bytes.
* When loading a level that references doodads not found in its embedded
data or the filesystem: an Alert modal appears listing the missing
doodads. The rest of the level loads fine, but the actors referenced
by these doodads don't load.
* File->Publish Level in the Level Editor opens the Publish window,
where you can embed custom doodads into your level and export a
portable .level file you can share with others.
* Currently does not actually export a level file yet.
* The dialog lists all unique doodad names in use in your level, and
designates which are built-ins and which are custom (paginated).
* A checkbox would let the user embed built-in doodads into their level,
as well, locking it in to those versions and not using updated
versions from future game releases.
UI Improvements:
* Added styling for a "Primary" UI button, rendered in deep blue.
* Pop-up modals (Alert, Confirm) color their Ok button as Primary.
* The Enter key pressed during an Alert or Confirm modal will invoke its
default button and close the modal, corresponding to its Primary
button.
* The developer console is now opened with the tilde/grave key ` instead
of the Enter key, so that the Enter key is free to click through
modals.
* In the "Open/Edit Drawing" window, a "Browse..." button is added to
the level and doodad sections, spawning a native File Open dialog to
pick a .level or .doodad outside the config root.
* You can now browse for a custom wallpaper image to use with your
levels. A platform-native file picker dialog is used (no WASM support)
* In the New/Edit Level Properties dialog, the Wallpaper drop-down
includes an option to browse for a custom map.
* When editing an existing level: the wallpaper takes effect immediately
in your level once the file is picked. For NEW levels, the wallpaper
will appear once the "Continue" button is pressed.
* All common image types supported: png, jpeg, gif.
* The wallpaper is embedded in the level using the filepath
"assets/wallpapers/custom.b64img" as a Base64-encoded blob of the
image data.
* The `doodad show` command will list the names and sizes of files
embedded in levels. `doodad show --attachment <name>` will get an
attachment and print it to the console window.
* To extract a wallpaper image from a level:
`doodad show -a assets/wallpapers/custom.b64img | base64 -d > out.png`
* Replace the radio buttons for Page Type and Wallpaper with the new
SelectBox widgets from the UI toolkit.
* Choice of default palette also switched from a MenuButton to
a SelectBox widget.
* Experimental "Browse..." option added to the Wallpaper drop-down when
run in --experimental mode; not yet functional.
* In the "New Level" dialog, a "Palette:" option shows a MenuButton
drop-down with options: Default, Colored Pencil, and Blueprint. These
control the set of colors the new level starts with.
* Added Feature Flag support, run doodle with --experimental to enable
all flags. Eraser Tool is behind a feature flag now.
* + and - on the top row of keyboard keys will zoom the drawing in and
out in Edit Mode. The wallpaper zooms nicely enough, but level
chunkers need work.
* A View menu is added with Zoom in/out, reset zoom, and scroll to
origin options. The whole menu is behind the Zoom feature flag.
* Update README with lots of details for fun debug mode options to play
around with.
* When editing a doodad in the Editor Mode, the toolbar has a "Lyr."
button that opens the Layers window.
* The Layers window allows switching the active doodad layer that you
are drawing on, as well as create and rename layers.
* With this feature, Doodads may be fully drawn in-game, including
adding alternate named layers for animations and multiple-state
doodads.
* Update the Pager component to have a configurable MaxPageButtons.
Controls that have more pages than this limit will stop having buttons
drawn after the limit. The "Forward" and "Next" buttons can still
navigate into the extra pages.
* Refactored and centralized the various popup windows in Editor Mode
into editor_ui_popups.go; the SetupPopups() and various methods such
as ShowPaletteWindow() and ShowDoodadDropper() make management of
popups simple for the editor_ui!
* The Menu Bar in Editor Mode now has context-specific tools in the
Tools menu: the Doodad Dropper for levels and Layers for doodads.
* Bugfix the Palette Editor window to work equally between Levels and
Doodads, by only having it care about the Palette and not the Level
that owns it.
* Added initial walking sprites for the player character, "Boy."
* Player doodad filename and title screen level are now configurable in
the balance/numbers.go package.
* Start the program window maximized with the `-w maximized` CLI option.
* Move the Doodad Palette off the right-side dock of the Editor Scene and
into its own pop-up window: the DoodadDropper.
* Shrink the width of the Color Palette panel and show only the colors in
the buttons. The name of the swatch is available in the mouse-over tooltip.
* Added an "Edit" button to the Color Palette. It opens a Palette Editor
window where you can rename, change colors and attributes of existing colors
OR insert new colors into your palette. (Deleting colors not yet supported).
* level.Chunker gets a Redraw method: invalidates all cached textures of all
chunks forcing the level to redraw itself, possibly with an updated palette.
* Integrate the new ui.MenuBar into the Editor Scene.
* File: New Level/Doodad, Save [as], Open, Close, Exit
* Edit: Undo, Redo, Level options
* Level: Playtest
* Tools: Debug overlay, Command shell
* Help: User Manual, About
* Add an About dialog accessible from the Help menu.
* Tightens up the surface area of API methods available to the
JavaScript VMs for doodads. Variables and functions are carefully
passed in one-by-one so the doodad script can only access intended
functions and not snoop on undocumented APIs.
* Wrote tons of user documentation for Doodad Scripts: documented the
full surface area of the exposed JavaScript API now that the surface
area is known and limited.
* Early WIP code for the Campaign JSON
There was a clipping bug where the player could sometimes clip thru a
left-side wall, if the left wall and floor made a 90 degree bend and the
player was holding the Left key while jumping slightly into the wall.
A band-aid that seems to work involved two steps:
1. When capping their leftward movement, add a "+ 1" to the cap.
2. At the start of the point loop, enforce the left cap like we do the
ceiling cap.
This seems to patch the problem, BUT it breaks the ability to walk up
slopes while moving left. Right-facing slopes can be climbed fine still.
Note: the original bug never was a problem against right walls, only
left ones, but the true root cause was not identified. See TODO comments
in collide_level.go.
* Player character now experiences acceleration and friction when
walking around the map!
* Actor position and movement had to be converted from int's
(render.Point) to float64's to support fine-grained acceleration
steps.
* Added "physics" package and physics.Vector to be a float64 counterpart
for render.Point. Vector is used for uix.Actor.Position() for the sake
of movement math. Vector is flattened back to a render.Point for
collision purposes, since the levels and hitboxes are pixel-bound.
* Refactor the uix.Actor to no longer extend the doodads.Drawing (so it
can have a Position that's a Vector instead of a Point). This broke
some code that expected `.Doodad` to directly reference the
Drawing.Doodad: now you had to refer to it as `a.Drawing.Doodad` which
was ugly. Added convenience method .Doodad() for a shortcut.
* Moved functions like GetBoundingRect() from doodads package to
collision, where it uses its own slimmer Actor interface for just the
relevant methods it needs.
* Revamped the sprites for the four colored locked doors. They now have
a side-view profile perspective rather than a front view.
* Doors open facing the left or the right based on what direction the
colliding actor approached it from.
* Update code for recent changes in UI toolkit around event handlers for
buttons.
* Add tooltips to various buttons in the Editor Mode. The left toolbar
shows the names of each tool, the Doodad Palette shows the title of
each doodad and the Color Palette shows the swatch attributes (solid,
fire, water, etc.)
* Fix the level collision bug that allowed clipping thru a ceiling while
climbing up a wall.
* Fix the scrolling behavior to keep the character on-screen no matter
how fast the character is moving, especially downwards.
* Increase player speed and gravity.
* New cheat: "ghost mode" disables clipping for the player character.
* Mark an actor as "grounded" if they fall and are stopped by the lower
level border, so they may jump again.
* Improve the collision detection algorithm so that Actor OnCollide
scripts get called more often WHILE an actor is moving, to prevent a
fast-moving actor from zipping right through the "solid" hitbox and
not giving the subject actor time to protest the movement.
* It's implemented by adding a `Settled` boolean to the OnCollide event
object. When the game is testing out movement, Settled=false to give
the actor a chance to say "I'm solid!" and have the moving party be
stopped early.
* After all this is done, for any pair of actors still with overlapping
hitboxes, OnCollide is called one last time with Settled=true. This is
when the actor should run its actions (like publishing messages to
other actors, changing state as in a trapdoor, etc.)
* The new collision detection algorithm works as follows:
* Stage 1 is the same as before, all mobile actors are moved and
tested against level geometry. They record their Original and New
position during this phase.
* Stage 2 is where we re-run that movement but ping actors being
intersected each step of the way. We trace the steps between
Original and New position, test OnCollide handler, and if it returns
false we move the mobile actor to the Last Good Position along the
trace.
* Stage 3 we run the final OnCollide(Settled=true) to let actors run
actions they wanted to for their collide handler, WITHOUT spamming
those actions during Stage 2.
* This should now allow for tweaking of gravity speed and player speed
without breaking all actor collision checking.
* Add initial Ellipse Tool to the Editor Mode. Currently there's
something wrong with the algorithm and the ellipses have a sort of
'lemon shape' to them.
* Refactor the IterLine/IterLine2 functions to be more consistent.
IterLine used to be the raw algorithm that took a bunch of coordinate
numbers and IterLine2 took two render.Point's and was the main one
used throughout the app. Now, IterLine takes the two Points and the
raw algorithm function removed.
* Implement Brush Sizes for drawtool.Stroke and add a UI to the tools panel
to control the brush size.
* Brush sizes: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, 32, 48, 64
* Add the Eraser Tool to editor mode. It uses a default brush size of 16
and a max size of 32 due to some performance issues.
* The Undo/Redo system now remembers the original color of pixels when
you change them, so that Undo will set them back how they were instead
of deleting the pixel entirely. Due to performance issues, this only
happens when your Brush Size is 0 (drawing single-pixel shapes).
* UI: Add an IntVariable option to ui.Label to bind showing the value of
an int reference.
Aforementioned performance issues:
* When we try to remember whole rects of pixels for drawing thick
shapes, it requires a ton of scanning for each step of the shape. Even
de-duplicating pixel checks, tons of extra reads are constantly
checked.
* The Eraser is the only tool that absolutely needs to be able to
remember wiped pixels AND have large brush sizes. The performance
sucks and lags a bit if you erase a lot all at once, but it's a
trade-off for now.
* So pixels aren't remembered when drawing lines in your level with
thick brushes, so the Undo action will simply delete your pixels and not
reset them. Only the Eraser can bring back pixels.
