Pickup & Weapon Systems; Random Map Generation

[britzl]

@rantingbob

I want the player to be able to find weapons laying on the floor, and collect them.

What’s the “Defold” way to solve this?

There was a discussion about weapon systems a while back: Creating a weapon system

Additionally, I’ve also been having a bit of a mare doing random world generation. I was thinking I could just build a tilemap by setting different images, but I think I can only do that within the size of an existing tilemap.

Yes, you need to define the bounds of your tilemap even when you’re generating the actual contents at runtime. It’s enough to set one tile in each corner of the tilemap and the use tilemap.get_bounds() and tilemap.set_tile()
