I'm putting this up as an issue because how these folders are structured is something I'm not super keen on right now. I'd basically like to just add some more subfolders so there's fewer loose files sitting in big files.
I'm putting this out there to let everyone know what's going on. In case the old organizational method was really important I created a new branch called "2019-Folder-Organization" so that people can always return to how things were organized before.
My Planned Changes:
Fonts:
Rips: Fonts from existing games
Thick Fonts: Any thicker fonts
Thin Fonts: Any thinner fonts
Specialty: The new home for ascii_with_d20 and ascii-to-hex
I added Specialty because these two fonts are meant for displaying things other than conventional text.
Music:
Action: Music for action scenes
Drumbeats: Template drumbeats to help composers get inspired
Exploration: Medium-intensity songs, this is where most songs in Overworld now live
Jingles: Unchanged
Menu Themes: Intermediary songs for menus or results screens
National Anthems: Thanks krümel!
SFX: Unchanged
Spooky: Anything mysterious, creepy, dreadful, or harshly dissonant now lives here
template.xm: Contains a cleared template.xm using the same instruments as template.mod
Sprites:
Animated: Used to be called "anim", is now just the full word because readability is important
Animals: Unchanged
Cards: Unchanged
Crosshairs: Has the selection_box spritesheet now
Decorations: Contains music_notes.png, and could include other animated decorations for a scene like wind or stars.
Dice: Has some new sprites in it now where there used to be loose dice sprites
People: Renamed from krumel's People
Static: Unchanged
Cats: Unchanged
Bubbles: removed, the one image that was here is now in UI
UI:
Cursors: New folder
Frames: New folder
Emotes: New folder
Everything here has been appropriately migrated.
Tilesets:
Unchanged.
If you have any issues with this, please let me know what you think about this plan. Again, the old system will not be changed in the 2019 branch. This is a change I do eventually want to make to master, though.
