Whats wrong with this?

[ficolas]

Code: Select all

	elseif event.createdentity.name == "flooring" then
		
		if game.gettile(event.createdentity.position.x,event.createdentity.position.y).name=="floor" then
			game.player.character.insert{name="flooring",count=1}
		else
			game.settiles{{position=event.createdentity.position,name="floor"}}
		end
		event.createdentity.destroy()
	--elseif event.createdentity.name == "bridge" then
	--	game.settiles{{position=event.createdentity.position,name="bridge"}}
	--	event.createdentity.destroy()
	end

It should just replace the tile the entity is placed in to a floor entity, but it does weird things, replacing nearby floor tiles with grass.

More extended code

Code: Select all

	elseif event.createdentity.name == "flooring" then
		cantplace=nil
		for x=-1,1 do
			for y=-1,1 do
				if string.find(game.gettile(event.createdentity.position.x+x, event.createdentity.position.y+y).name, "water")~=nil then
					cantplace=true
					game.getplayer().print("cant place")
					break
				end
			end
		end
		
		if cantplace==true or game.gettile(event.createdentity.position.x,event.createdentity.position.y).name=="floor" then
			game.player.character.insert{name="flooring",count=1}
		else
			game.settiles{{position=event.createdentity.position,name="floor"}}
		end
		event.createdentity.destroy()
	elseif event.createdentity.name == "bridge" then
		game.settiles{{position=event.createdentity.position,name="bridge"}}
		event.createdentity.destroy()
	end

I added game.getplayer().print(game.gettile(event.createdentity.position.x, event.createdentity.position.y).name), and it seems to return grass even when it is not grass.
It does really weird things

Edit:The problem is something with the transitions of tiles, because If I edit a 3x3 instead of a 1x1, it only works weird when used between two diferent tiles (like grass and sand, or dark sand and sand.

Do you have something like this in your tile definitions?

Code: Select all

allowed_neighbors = { "grass" }

I added this:

Code: Select all

allowed_neighbors = { "grass-medium", "grass-dry", "dirt", "dirt-dark", "sand", "sand-dark", "deepwater", "deepwater-green", "water", "water-green", "grass"  }

but still doesnt seem to work

[immibis]

Maybe you need to specify that it's allowed to be next to "floor" as well.

[cube]

If the list of allowed neighbors is empty, everything should be allowed.
