A Simple Maintenance Update... with more Tiles?


Hello everyone,

A year has passed since my last update. Not much has happened with my other projects, as I was focused on my personal life, including work and learning new things. However, after gaining some new knowledge, I realized this package needed some changes.

So, I’m releasing a maintenance update.

This update includes two changes:

  • Better-organized terrain tiles.
  • More tiles, adding a few more variations.

The first change is the main reason for the update. I felt that the terrain tiles were disorganized and not easy to understand. As a result, I decided to replace the current file with three files for each environment:

  • Base tiles: These contain the 47 basic tiles, organized in a clearer structure.
  • Background tiles: These include the background wall tiles, following the basic autotile structure.
  • Extra tiles: These are the remaining tiles, including slopes and tile variations.

In case you’re wondering, after a bit of research I decided to organize the 47 tiles file like this:

The second change was, ironically, driven by the first one. While organizing the tiles, I found that more background wall tiles were needed to make the structure work properly. So, I added a few more tiles for each environment to address this issue. Some of these tiles may seem illogical to me, but I created them just for the heck of it.

This upcoming update is an spur of the moment, as it doesn’t comes with new environments and this update wasn’t initially planned. However, it’s a welcome addition, and I hope it proves helpful. It should go live in a few days. If more updates are made, only time will tell. Also, currently the package is on Holidays Sale, with 35% off, so I think this is a good moment to get it. I’ll appreciate it.

By the way, now that I’ve had about 3 months of rest, I plan to work on some new content… Just wait for the news when I’m ready to share it.

Take care, and happy new year!

Thanks for the update, but in the downloads, only the old version from 2023 is available, at least for me?

The update is still not up. But don’t worry, in the devlog I said it will be out in a few days.
