Hi again,

I’m setting up my game project, including the LevelEditor. What I want to accomplish is the following:

– I want to load a level

– Then be able to play it and/or edit it

– If edited, I want to save the level, so next time the game starts I see the changes

 

From what I understand, levels can be designed either in QML or get loaded from JSON. As I understand it, the LevelEditor only supports saving levels in JSON, so I should be using JSON for my scenario. By doing so, I’ve been able to accomplish the first two steps of what I want. But now I have a problem saving the level I loaded from JSON, because when I do so I get this error:

<!–StartFragment–>ERROR: LevelEditorLogic: no LevelBase loaded – either no LevelLoader defined or the loaded level was not derived from LevelBase as it has no levelData property!?<!–EndFragment–>

So now my question: how do I define a LevelBase in such a way it can be recognized by the LevelEditor for the level loaded from JSON, as I think the LevelBase is only used with QML levels? Am I overlooking something?

 

Thanks!

Ah, nevermind. I was just forgetting the call to levelEditor.exportLevelAsFile() which was why my level didn’t get saved. I still get the error mentioned above, but apparently it’s causing any serious harm.

 

I still think it’s slightly cumbersome that exports always go to the Documents folder, but nothing a symlink can’t fix 🙂

 

Cheers!

Hey there,

nice that you could figure it out by yourself 🙂

If you run into any other problems, feel free to ask.
