In-game support for different tilesets #35

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
With all the really great tilesets coming (and ASCII) there should be an
option to change the tileset in-game.

At the minimum perhaps you could support NSUserDefaults, and make it something 
you can change in the 
Settings App. That's what I did for preferences with Rogue Touch. Since your 
progress is saved on exit, you could 
go out, change tileset selections in settings, and re-enter where you left off. 
In fact that might even be the 
preferred method as your loading with imageNamed caches the data for the open 
life of the app, and swapping 
between multiple tilesets inside the game could actually cause you to run out 
of available memory and terminate 
the game!

Get in touch with me at the address we've been chatting under if you want some 
more detail.

I'd really like this one in the app, it's just another table view :) Re the 
caching
we'll see how dangerous this is but the OS should really release cached images 
when
memory is scarce ... Will use NSUserDefaults.

iPhone OS 2.0 - 2.2.1 has a problem... basically using imageNamed to load your 
images caused a copy of them 
to be cached in memory, and absolutely nothing you or the OS did, not even a 
low memory warning would free 
that cached data until the app quit. I did a bit of searching and *supposedly* 
Apple has corrected the caching 
glitch in version 3.0 so you might be fine. Keep this issue in mind if you 
decide to make iNetHack backwards 
compatible though ;)

Yes, 2.2.1 is still a goal. A warning for 2.2.1 users would be an option for me.
Thanks for the heads up :)

would like to have a class TileSet, with a title
all TileSets are presented in the settings app
ASCII tileset could build tiles from ascii fonts

You can now choose between absurd, chozo and chozo b in the settings app.
