Help / Re: Mapscript documentation
« on: December 01, 2023, 01:56:09 pm »
So, if I understand correctly (but I doubt it), if I want to place a unique 30x30 mapblock, should I set the size parameter to 3 ? What if I want to place a 30x20 or 20x10 mapblock ?
I ask this because I've tried it with a 20x20 mapblock, no problem. But as soon as I want one with a more "exotic" size, it doesn't work. The map is generated but the mapblock doesn't appear. So I copied the method used in X-Piratez by making a UFO appear (addUFO), and it works, but I feel like I'm tinkering.
In any case, thank you for your help as it's really not intuitive. The documentation is clear on many parameters, but not at all on mapscripting.

Yes, that's what I was afraid of. I generally like to know what I'm doing, which is why I asked the question.
The addUFO and addCraft commands are pretty self-explanatory, but I have no idea what addBlock and fillArea are for. But I'll give it a try, thanks.
EDIT : and it's working, many thanks !

Help / Mapscript documentation
« on: November 29, 2023, 02:08:36 pm »
I'm making a very simple map for learning and I think I've understood how to do it with the help of MapView2. However, when I try to launch it I get "Map failed to fully generate".
I've looked at how several mapscripts are written and done some research, and I have to admit that this is black magic for me. Is there any clear documentation on the subject ?
