Map editor: add a layer view

[christopho]

Replace the min layer and max layer fields by a layer list. The user should be able to

• add or remove layers at both ends,
• show/hide layers,
• lock/unlock layers.

and move down/up layers ?

[christopho]

I don't see the point of moving layers. PS: or you mean moving all entities from a layer to another?

[oclero]

I don't really know, it could be useful. I don't have an example in mind. Moving all entities can also be useful.

Moving layers (change their order) and even merging or separating them... that reminds me of Aseprite.

[Diarandor]

What about pausing layers? All enemies, timers and collision tests would be paused, except the hero.

[oclero]

it's in the editor. Why would you want to pause layers in the editor? ^^

[Diarandor]

Amm, ok, I was thinking on doing so during the game, not in the editor, in case we define functions like map:get_layer(layer), to hide/unhide things during the game. For instance, to hide the layer of the roof of a house when you enter it (the inside part would be in the same map).
