Hello All, I was looking into working on an online Tiles version somewhat according to the ideas of henryci from his email on 2010-10-28. I've created a very simple Javascript page here to test out some ideas: http://dcssjsc.99k.org/Page1.htm
All it does is parse some hard-coded JSON to display tiles in mostly the correct locations. The current state of that page looks vaguely like a starting Crawl screen. You may have to press a key or press the 'Get More Data' screen to have it show the graphics. To get the JSON data, I hacked up some printf's into the TileBuffer.add() function to get the data. My question is this: where's the right place to put the printf()'s to get the GUI data? I'm thinking that I'd like this online version to match the GUI of the Tiles version. Henryci suggested adding the data to viewmapcc::show_map(), but that seems too high level and would mean recreating some of the Tiles GUI in the JavaScript client. Also TileBuffer.add() seems too low level, as it doesn't really have enough information about where the tile should be placed (e.g. which layer, region location, etc). In my sample above, I made some assumptions to get it to look right. I'd like to hear your suggestions as my head is swimming in this code and getting nowhere. :) Best Regards, Jeff
