[Other] Get tile number

[Mickey`]

Hi,

Is there any way to get the tile number at a given position ?
Something like "getmaptile" ?

Thanks ;)

There's setmaptile. Why would you want getmaptile? Give us an example, I'm wondering what it could be used for.

I know the setmaptile command.

I want to know if I am on a grass tile.

Just had a look through the XSE command directory and there doesn't seem to be a command like that, the closest are 'setmaptile' of course and 'getplayerpos'.

I think you might be able to achieve what you want with scripts, but you'd need a lot.

In the end you'll probably need to use ASM.

Yeah, I know I'll probably need ASM. I was wondering if someone know the offset of a routine for example.

I'm not sure if there is a routine but I'm tempted to try and make one.

JPAN has made ASM for it. It's in his hacked engine as special 0x7E.

Also, cut checks something similar to this, except for wild grass. Take a look at the cut routine :)

Thanks guys ! :)

A bit earlier, I wrote a routine which give me the "composition" of the tile at the specified position. The "composition" is in fact tile number + movement permission like that :

Composition = Tile number + (Movement permission * 4)

For example, the composition of a tile 0x001C with a movement permission 0x1 is :
001C > 1C00 > 1C04

That's enough for what I want to do, but how can the game (and A-Map) differenciate the tile number and the movement permission ?

Touched suggested how it can be done using ASM :).
