For example, the bottom layer could be used for the furthest castle wall. The point of the layers is to make it easier to add images on top of each other. The one below it is a background layer however and only used for colors and images (more on that later). The bottom one is selected by default, but there's 2 more above it and 1 below it. There are 3 layers on which you can add map pieces.
To clear an entire layer click the 'clear layer' button and to get rid of everything simply click the 'clear all' layer. To get rid of a single piece simply select it and click the 'delete selected' button. This way it's far easier to add items of the same size to your map. Copy:īy clicking the 'copy selected' button an exact copy of the item you've selected will be placed on top of that same item. This way you won't accidentally resize images when you don't want to. You can toggle being able to resize the piece on and off by clicking the 'toggle resize'. To resize a piece, you simply drag the sides or the little arrow icon in the bottom right corner. This means you have less freedom in terms of moving your pieces around, but it does mean it becomes much easier to keep all the pieces on the same level, which is very useful when creating straight walls for example. Grid snap:īy toggling 'grid snap' on all pieces will stick to a grid when you move them. This way you don't have to worry about which item you add first as the order of layering can be changed at all times. When you click on a piece you've added to the map not only will it be selected, and thus gain an orange border, the piece will also be moved on top of all other pieces within that same layer. Once it's on the map you can resize the piece, drag it around, delete it and even copy it. You click on the categories to view the various pieces and then click on a piece to add it to the map. The tool is mostly very straight forward. It's an easy to use tool as well, but below are the instructions in more detail in case you need them. But for now there's plenty to play around with, and a whole lot you can create. Perhaps small doodads like cranes, crates, fires, and market stands, for example. If there's a demand for more, more will definitely be added in the future. You could even use this tool in combination with the town creator tool, as you can create a top down view with that, and the various side views with this tool.Īt the moment this tool is focused on walls, battlements, various buildings, and some roof styles. This castle creator tool allows you to create a relatively simple, (mostly) 2D view of a castle, as well as towns, settlements, outposts, and anything else your imagination might come up with.
