Basically by writing a few lines of code, its rather questionable to add a really good pseudo-3d perspective to the backgrounds. The Y coordinate offsets have to be adjusted, however, here its half as severe as the horizontal scrolling. In this video, the map gets its offset linearly by depth (so 1/depth layer multiplied by what would normally position the background), but its entirely possible to implement parts that move at different speeds (or even move constantly, such as in the context of clouds), but that would require significant revisions to how we currently store entities. That being said we'd also need to figure out how to store all these layers, I'd assume they'd all be neatly compiled in a .zip file, but I'm not sure if game maker has the sort of capability to extract those (though an external extension probably exists)

We need a way to automate this. I've already got a few ideas...

We need a different map format first.
(I suggest a zipfile with the wallmask, entities info, metainfo and the different layers of images).

If you find any offensive posts in strategy and tactics or the new projects section, don't use the report post button, but PM me instead. That way I can respond faster since I don't frequently check my email.  |

It's probably because I don't play much anymore, but....this doesn't really look much different than what we currently have to me  |

Dat view from off the map. Memory leaks or blurring are something that would need a fix.

that's not a leak or blur, that's an overdraw/framebuffer issue

It can be ameliorated by having a static "Sky" background that's always in view (in this case that would be the blue bits of the sky that doesn't actually have any details on it) In normal GG2, looking at those parts of the map would display a black background, in PyGG2, I'd assume that the memory isn't flushed to save time |

that's not necessary, and is just a waste of time, if we're going to have a sky bit of the map anyways

How about trying to automatically detect layers through saturation and brightness levels, maybe some edge detection (if no manul layers qre found) ?
(god I hate typing on phone.)
