Hi almostApixel! this is an awesome asset pack :) I'm currently working with it in a small farming game I'm developing. Im just having one little problem. In your house gif, your building has two stories. I cannot for the life of me seem to figure out what pieces are needed for this. Would there be any chance you could point me in the right direction? (Apologies if I'm being blind and its more obvious than I can see >.<) I look forward to seeing where you take this asset pack in the future :D

Hey. Thanks for the kind words. I'm away from home today, I'll update an example here in the evening and add it as an example to the housing system.

(Edit)I actually had the pack in my other computer so, I looked at it now.

The items you are looking for are these:

These are put on top of the walls to and then add the top wall tile on top of them like this.



Hope this helps.

So I've tried messing around with the pieces that you have pointed out. I seem to have a line going through the house like so... 

So I'm sure I'm still doing something wrong. Can they work together on the same layer? Its going something really simple that I'm missing >.< (Apologies if I'm being a pain).

Ah.. I see the issue. You see, the pack was created to be layered. So you need to construct a wall as if nothing was above it using the middle low wall and the middle top wall and then, on another layer on top of it, add the middle wall and another top wall.

Usually in games, you layer the levels. So you have a fully rendered lower layer as if nothing was above, and then create another layer on top of it with the new assets.
Dont remove the top wall in the lowest layer, keep it there and add another layer of tiles on top of it. Render both.

Also, it's not a bother at all, glad to help a fellow developer. And these comments make me think on how to improve the pack for the future. Thank you!

Ahh ok I think I understand now :D. Haven't really done the multi-layer thing unless it's been 1 layer for ground 1 for buildings 1 for decor etc. But I am always looking for new challenges and I think I've found a  fun one. Also to keep you in the loop, I plan on making a small Zelda type farming game with your assets. Not sure, but I hope this helps with ideas for further updates as well :D. Really good work I love it.

Just a small update, your instructions where bang on the money and really easy to follow. I am now able to create what I was looking for. Thank you very much. rate : 10/10 :D
