Finally got around to testing new version, very nice addition, thanks Smibu. :) Only thing I'm missing is some basic saveload (just need basic one save state like smibu sl, for me its quite essential for testing levs, and i can't move away from alt-tabbing to windowed saveload elma if dont have that). Also would be nice if playing keys didnt conflict with other hotkeys while playing.

I made a litel SLE tutorial. Start is just addressing sum confusions a friend of mine had when I forced him to make a lev.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i72HHLqG6oo

Very minor bug report for teh beta: my turn key is tab, and it only works when I hold it and press some other button. Mega unimportant but reported anyway in case it's something deeper. Sik job with this feature!
then again i don't know anything
maybe easier not to think abouut alöl things thought than not things thought ... or something..=?

Nice Lousku :) I'll add that video to Elmanager homepage (and also any other new SLE videos that I can find) when I get around to updating the page. I'll also add links to other kinds of tutorials such as tej's.

I'll take a look at that tab bug some day.

Yea, I agree this would be useful to have, and it's also pretty simple to make. I'll add it some day.

Yep. I'll probably add an option to disable hotkeys while playing. The long-term solution would be to make all hotkeys customizable.

A couple of questions to all SLE (beta) users:

* Should the context menu option "Move start here" rather be "Test from here"? This would move the start and also click Play automatically.
* Should the "ghost" player, which means the saved start position, be hidden altogether? So I don't mean to remove the whole feature, just not showing the saved start position. I don't think it's very useful to show it, and it has been confusing for some people.

I don't think so.

This should be an option. I use the ghost image (to know where resetting the start goes to) and am not confused by it.

Hi Smibu
Very good implementations.

Is it possible to add grass in a specific area of a polygon? When I want to add grass somewhere, I need to delete all off it, otherwise I end up adding double grass in whole lev.

Sorry late reply. Yea it's possible to add that feature ("autograss selection"). But the current autograss code is kinda convoluted, so I'm not sure how hard it is to add. I'll add a github issue for this.

small suggestion: hide cursor during Play mode
small i mean not that important, but it's a bit distracting, especially when it randomly selects polygons.

New beta: https://m-l.fi/files/Elmanager_beta.zip

Changes:

* SLE: Added basic saveload support when playing.
* SLE: Physics FPS can be changed.
* SLE: Shortcuts can be disabled when playing.
* SLE: Bugfix: Tab key was not working well if used as turn key.

There is some problem with DPI (something to do with .NET version update). This means stuff may look bad on screen (overlapping/too small controls etc...) but you can try to adjust program compatibility settings (right-click exe, properties). I'll look into this later.

edit: nvm, I guess this answers that viewtopic.php?f=1&t=9613&p=253782&hilit=qframe#p253782
then again i don't know anything
maybe easier not to think abouut alöl things thought than not things thought ... or something..=?
