Force Color/Empty similar to Body/Empty

Thu, 29 Jul 2021 06:52:46 GMT

It would be great to be able to paint a Force Color but have the app fallback to an Empty color rather than a body color.
So if body/empty is either body color or border darkness color then

force color/empty would either be the forced color which the user defines or border darkness color

Random background

Is it possible to provide random background color for each sprite?

Color palette button

How about a button similar to the force color button except it lets you select a certain color palette to pull colors from, to limit randomization in certain areas.

Import option?

I'm on the mac side. Is there an import option yet? Thank you! If i'm missing it, please direct me to the right location :)

.5 pixel check box idea

I'm not too sure how useful or in demand this feature might be. It would be handy to have a couple check boxes for .5 pixels on the inside X and Y mirror.

What I found is that when you mirror you have two rows of pixels that will be the same. This happens on the far right Y and the bottom X. I think having a "Make Mirror Edge .5" check box for both X and Y could be handy so that you only have one row of pixels in the middle.

I actually ran across this when I was doing that 3D conversion. Again I am not sure how handy this feature would be. But for those looking to detail a bit more, it could be cool.

Animation section

This might be incredibly difficult to do but I think it could be a cool idea to try and add a pixel editor/animation suite into this. I could see it working like this.

Right click on the Generated pixel character you want, have a menu that says something like "Output to Animator". Then the program would populate a sprite sheet with the chosen pixel character. Maybe you could edit pixels directly in the animator, but I think it could also be cool to have it generate procedural variations of the pixel character automatically, maybe have a little animation preview window. Then have the ability to export the sprite sheet to be used in whatever.

I think if you could pull this off this would be a must have for any 2D game developer (I mean it already kind of is). The ability to procedurally generate and animate sprites in one place could be pretty crazy.
