* 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. |

doodad.exe
The doodad tool is a command line interface for interacting with Levels and Doodad files, collectively referred to as "Doodle drawings" or just "drawings" for short.
Commands
doodad convert
Convert between standard image files (bitmap or PNG) and Doodle drawings (levels or doodads).
This command can be used to "export" a Doodle drawing as a PNG (when run against a Level file, it may export a massive PNG image containing the entire level). It may also "import" a new Doodle drawing from an image on disk.
Example:
# Export a full screenshot of your level
$ doodad convert mymap.level screenshot.png
# Create a new level based from a PNG image.
$ doodad convert scanned-drawing.png new-level.level
# Create a new doodad based from a BMP image, and in this image the chroma
# color (transparent) is #FF00FF instead of white as default.
$ doodad convert --key '#FF00FF' button.png button.doodad
Supported image types:
- PNG (8-bit or 24-bit, with transparent pixels or chroma key)
- BMP (bitmap image with chroma key)
The chrome key defaults to white (#FFFFFF), so pixels of that color are
treated as transparent and ignored. For PNG images, if a pixel is fully
transparent (alpha channel 0%) it will also be skipped.
When converting an image into a drawing, the unique colors identified in the drawing are extracted into the palette. You will need to later edit the palette to assign meaning to the colors.
