Mod creation tutorial

[misiokles]

i’m a software developer, since some years mostly doing Java. I took a look at the Java json support and found it quite impressive. May be out of these studies some day there will be a Mod designer in java. But i already found one issue: In vcmi everything is quoted. Even numericla values (like f.ex. this “index”). But json specification puts numbers without quotes.

Please join slack https://slack.vcmi.eu/ There you’ll have the opportunity to chat with vcmi creators. I’m just ordinary modder.

I think i’ll do that. But only after i have enough spare time for joining development. And that will take some time. Vcmi is not the center of my life
Until tomorrow then.

So see you at slack someday ;]

“mask” : [ “VV”,“VB”]

So, visitable only at the upper 2 tiles and at the left. Why is a cactus visitable?

“V” is visible not visitable, Visitable is “A”.

So: would it be o.k. to replace the variant here with:

“object” : { “index” : 1 }

No it would not, Key “object” must be unique, you might replace it with “objectSnow”

You’re right. Sorry, my fault.
