theres a slider?
???????????
Yep
hey ive been manually going over it everytime lol
wouldve been nice to know there was a slider to begin with
picking the colors manually isn't much of an effort too anyway
that's why you learn the software first
Go to colors select the area you want to edit then either shift color or make it darker lighter any
until i forget to replace
fill in some pixels
you told me its easy and i need like very few toools
yeah???
how can you forget to fill 5 colors lol
proceeds to have me use every single tool available
not like that
also
i dont think i can use the slider
cause thatll also adjust the dirt colour
i think theres already a good contract on the blue? 🥺
you didn't have to use the bulge feature just yet I think
brother in christ
just use the wand
whats that and what would you need a bulge for
lol
forgot that was a thing lmao
how can you forget that the most important feature exists 😭
what am i editing the shadows/highlights?
i only learnt a week ago that i can adjust tolerance to select what i want. and additive to select multiple
cursed lol
this fine?
yeah looks better I guess
'upper' I'm talking about left/right
do what
okay I now know why people think creating plugins is difficult
how does one draw anything without the selection tools????
you dont wamnna know
i used to copy, paste the whole thing, crop and erase the parts i dont need
jesus christ
creating texture pixel by pixel
i have no idea

Are you going to post this one this time... Right?
Please don't show it if you are not going to publish in someway, I've seen too many good looking projects without seeing the light of day and it makes me anxious and sad 
well really im not even showing a finnished project, none of my plugins ive posted here are anywhere close to being finnished..
also i wanted to know how to make other things, not just decors
also to make you happy, i have no plans of releasing my plugins to the store anytime now so dont have hopes at all
well i did want to a couple weeks earlier but ive changed my mind
also saying me not posting the progress of plugins im trying to make is kinda.. idk something i guess?
what's the point of making plugins if you're not gonna share the progress with everyone
You just need to be careful because when you show it, people are going to expect it, and even ask for more
well like i said, i wanted to upload like.. the ww2 bunker stuff
If they don't get what they want, they lose trust
but its just a massive plugin
and along the way i just dont want to post it
well i guess i will not be posting anymore stuff, ill just ask for json stuff in #plugin-support 👍
what..? i gave no ETA to my plugins..
i have this not so great habit of being eager to share progress but heavily procrastinating when it comes to uploading plugins lol
i made a plugin idea, did 10% of it, and kinda stopped it
i got 16 list of plugins i wanted to make starting back from 2020
well, most uh.. got finnished (the easy and small ones) and made it into the store before the time i dont want my plugins in the store anymore
the rest are quite massive plugins, tried to do some progress, posted it and just dont have motivation anymore
I understand the procrastination but I hold as much as possible before releasing anything in here, I release more stuff on my server but still not at a real time pace
DSA:\
you was having the same problem of me with tlmep
tlmep?
i was planning to publish the public once i have finished a country’s military equipment (in this case russia)
but it would took a lot of time
and people dont have that time to wait
well atleast you have more motivation than i do
so that’s why i will publish every progress of tlmep to people
do you get tired/bored of drawing it?
at some point ye
when i keep working on the same thing for a long time i just get extremely bored/unmotivated
ah
well i mean the first reason why i decided to make tlmep is because i like to draw military stuff
for the bunkers, for the trucks, everything i work at really
so if i ever feel bored or feeling burnout
i will just take some rest
and play games
im a massive sucker for ww2 stuff
wanted to make a mega pack out of it, tried reached the sun too high and fell to the ground
then you should release what you have completed so far and take a rest
tbh not really ww2 stuff, literally just 1940's stuff
ww2 stuff documentaries are hard to be found ig
well i mean im not drawing no uh.. complicated stuff
just buildings, decors, vehicles
but i also wanted to have so many variants of it, tanks burning, destroyed buildings, expectation too high i guess
Just do it at your own pace
still incomplete
plus i kinda hop here and there on the list so.. its extremely slow
Artillery? Flak?
flak
nothing new.

Bokoblo big buses private plugin pack 😎
i'm tired drawing buses too
consider taking inspiration from buildings already made in theotown
here are some of the buildings of theotown
i mean.. just make one side of the wall (right side) dark
either pick a darker color of the wall or pick a black color, set the transparency to your desired amount and make it dark
shadows-
anyone have any diagonal fence code?
it does not work that way
what
it is all a illusion!

Level 1 industrial demand
Idk what you mean
Ptag demand
That
I mean it's auto-built, not built by me
How do I import a file from forum Into theotown
download the file and put it into the plugins folder
Ptag files
TheoTown files are located under such directories:
- Windows: C:\Users\(insert username)\TheoTown or %USERPROFILE%\TheoTown
- Linux: ~/TheoTown
- MacOS: /user/TheoTown
- Android: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/info.flowersoft.theotown.theotown/files
By default you should be in /storage/emulated/0/. Uninstalling the game on Android will delete all files, unless you decide to keep the files when prompted by uninstaller.
If you cannot access game files through these directories, game has an in-built file manager for mobile devices which is accessible from the region view menu.
You can find your plugin, music, region and city files there as well as logs for debugging purposes.

yo can anyone share me the road textures with the bridge textures in the game ?
Find them in forum
am lazy
okay
I cant find the subforum
thx
7 eleven?
Yes
Yay! I was little confused about the current night animation but thank you for improving it.
Hmmmm too many interesting new
Hmmmm... Not better at all
I haven't seen you made any cool stuff. What's happening?
You've made so many things and yet never bothered to finish them. What's the point? Your basically burning yourself out making these beautiful well made graphics
well i actually really enjoyed making this one
You've made a yacht (which is not finished) then some trucks, potentially a props pack (which is also not finished) then a ww2 pack (which is also not finished)
Try to focus on one single project
well this one will be included in the ww2 one duh
im tired of making bunker and trenches so im doing something else
So you're focusing now on ww2 pack? Ok
Alright... So about my Western Pack plugin, to all someone who enjoyed it, Imma work the update of the plugin right now
not right now rtob

The REAL QUESTION is… is this.. powerful enough to launch a nuke at the moon?
With so much energy I guess you will ignite it inside the chamber lol

yes thats him
I can't see your username bc of dark discord background
i will make no cannons, its a commercial civilian version im still figuring out how to do the cannons
thats what we get when the person who picked the colours had light mode on when he picked the colours
Uninspired
working in suburban commercial buildings. Only 2 now, but I'll make several New York style
Nice
@storm garnet amazing idea
💀
guys
I'm guessing all the plugin suggestions in the channel are izabel's ideas
Oooooohhhhh i get it now

Farol Santander-sp Brasil
The Santander lighthouse is a tourist spot in the city of São Paulo here in Brazil, it is 161 meters high
🇧🇷
I'm pretty sure you can add pictures just by editing your message.
ah, nvm
I don't think you can so I dleted the lone post
Hmm no wait you can't, mb
Can I show you another idea?
ilysm
Hmm that remind me p1000 ploogin 🤔
The Altino Arantes (Farol Santander) have in São Paulo pack buildings.
I have used in Solarius city in República zone, i recomend só much this building.
What happened to admin it takes weeks to get plugin approved 🌚
😴
i'm just too busy caring about myself right now
Oh wow

incredible
how to code night animation
you make an animation with light and light switching set to true
Kinda lacks a bit of info
yes because theres a tutorial on the forum in getting started tab
thanks
This vanilla building are need to pay by dias ?
dias?
also which one?
that stripes
me trying to find the stripes
fr
I remember there's ingame building need to buy using dias
dias as in diamonds?
Yah
wtf does that mean
of course there are buildings bought with diamonds
so which building are we talking about?
I cant understand anything from this conversation
you cant get the graphics for those
if you see if online, its not paid
Is this belong on that?
NO, GRAPHICS THAT WERE POSTED IN THAT FORUM POST ARE NOT PAID
bro bro bro, which onee
no, lobby has missed some
2048 world
we found the powerlines the other day
yea but thats mostly irrelevant
and someone found the military vehicles too
look
if they are there
i will use them
go away unless you have something meaningfull to say
That was actually have some meaning
is it supposed to be funny
"replacement for nerd emoji"
because if you look closely, it seems you got the whole gang laughing
How could you know that
You actually dont know the meaning but bunny does, and she found me 😭
hey fun fact, you wanna know why vnark isnt getting unbanned? its partially because of you
I mean the buildings?
I want to make night frames for that.
But if it's belong on that pack I won't.
i know this sounds like a rather painfull process
Lmao no
but you can find where the x and y of the building's corner is
yes it is
Why
then look it up in the public jsons
because youre annoying to lobby and ja?
is it suprising?
What did i even do ?
do you have that little self awareness
can we take this elsewhere?
alright
what's the point if you're not even going to use ingame night definitions
anyway where were we
unless you are
and then you'll quickly realise how boring and repetitive adding night frames get
i would work backwards
use the jsons here for reference
then find where theyre located on world textures
then you know what drafts to add the frames to
and whether or not theyre premium
because these will never contain premium drafts
its just a painfull process
basically
but how would you even get the night animation onto the in game building
how can I make the text looks like code
hello
you can type json right after it to make discord mark it up like json
oh working
like ```json
[{
"id":"$testlightanim",
"type":"animation",
"light":true,
"light switching":false,
"frames": [{"bmp":"unsettlingi.png","handle y":8}]
},
wait what whaat
you can use "inherit" to append animations to ingame buildings but how are you gonna actually create said animations is your problem lol
good ole animation dev tool innit
doesn't that require a special code to access ingame buildings now?
at least it used to at some point
idk
I don't understand
can you even inherit onto ingame buildings without super privilege?
kulche :>
i need help with how do do the shadows 😭
I'm not even talking to you specifically
I'm pretty sure I could without even regular privilege
wacko
because I tested some new night frames months ago
where is the problem
Does anyone know where this plugin is located?
How do the shadows goo 😭
what shadows
'''[{
"id":"$testlightanim",
"type":"animation",
"light":true,
"light switching":false,
"frames": [{"bmp":"unsettlingi.png","handle y":8}]
},'''
so this will work?
idk didnt you tell me to add shadows?
try hadestia's forum account
or hadestia on the plugin store
I sent you a pipe "template"
this does nothing by itself
and its bigger than mine
and?
?
but it has shadows drawn
at least on the pipes
but adding ground shadows is piss easy
how do you see the shadows of a pipe thats in a pit?
Ah nevermind I'll just test it
I told you it does nothing lol
you just defined an animation
?????????? what
Just make it as usual but add a layer of shade then remove from part that light would reach
i cant visualise what youre saying
🥺
Use 2 layers the second one paint it transparent black
i still dont understand what you asked me to fix
cry about it
refer to this
pipes have sides just like buildings
and those sides should be appropriately shadded
shaded
can you give me the example of the code?
what code
night anim?
you already defined it yourself
Hey what plugin list to create Soviet city
unless you're speaking about inherit, which is just a single bool attribute
hmm
lol
is that a yes or no
how am I supposed to aswer if you colored a single side only
am i supposed to colour both sides?
i thought you said it was shaded like buildings
??????
im asking if i did the shape of how its shaded correctly
ill lower the layer opacity later
is it too dark?
by top you mean the entore thing i shaded or just the upper right part?
oh i think i get it
And then?
in game
oooh okay
Mud road ?
dirt
also no
its not even a road
if you want a mud road, evan made one
Where
Pipe ?
wdym?
Talking about colours
oh yeah
i just wish the different colours actually connexted
cause they dont rn
you can put two staight pipes next to each other and it would look like it was but
curves dont woek like that
Almost done with this once and for all
Gosh diggity darn that look pretty nice
i love you so much
gay
Kool
Interesting
incredible
Lookin great man
Marvelous
Looking good tbh
Looks nice, keep up the good work

is there any diagonal ship frames that i can use for this?
Nice dock
What’s the crane plug-in?
Thanks, I'm new to the server and also I don't use Discord much
Doesnt that already exist?
Unfortunately no, the Brazilian community of Theotwon is not very big, so there are not many plugins with constructions here in Brazil
Oh thats a brazil one, i thought it was the one in UK
I came here to this server with the expectation of showing the different things that can be put in the game
Thats fine, you can use #plugin-suggestions
Also, one day I also want to make plugins for the game, but I don't know which platform is used
You can check the pins in this channel
Thanks guys, I'll try
Do you happen to know the expression "FAZ O L"
Translated into English would do the l
Uh guys can I ask for the forum plug-in crane?
the crane is private
dont talk about that here please
Sorry, I got a little carried away
it's off topic and we don't allow political topics in this server
yeah dw
don't do that again
Actually, I was just talking because I thought it was cool to share a curiosity about Brazil
There was no finalized police that's why I'm talking about this
But, you made me intrigued by one thing, how do you know the meaning of the expression?
wrong channel, post that in #city-showcase
You are wrong
i havent yet seen anyone from my country playing this game, and i dont think anyone else here has either
Are you from Palau?
no
I could say all Oceania countries until I guess
smaller barrel
👍
oh, im using another acc, didnt even realised it
so youre chipper
aust F#5443 was kicked for the following reason: Alternative accounts are not allowed.
whoops
duh, i am very much so aware of that rule for years, just didnt realised i was on another acc
ok?
he left the server, not realizing he was on his alt
hes back on his main now though
yes im aware of it
how do i do corner pieces
Looks good to me
can you send me the png?
Ayo there a small problem on pixel lol
i already knowww, i just dont know how to shade it
lol jsjsj reacted to kulche xD
She is taking a nap
i need help for the bridge textures, or i will postpone the bridge update. 

Oh hi ian, i am wondering if you found any solution to my bug
i don't have an iphone, so i can't do debug.
Oh, do you need any file for debug or you just cant do it without iphone
Basicly, trans in sidewalk road category doesnt appears
And the problem is that
Interestingly when you download something from store it keeps working if even there is a problem
The problem is same with old versions but now it is working without trans in sidewalk road
yeah, i need to debug the code since the trans in and out is in the same iteration process, i must know why the trans in roads are not load properly while the trans out roads are load without any problem.
Yes
but, since the pc or android don't have that bug, maybe it the iphone issues.

Maybw
whats the big deal of me leaving??
but then the shadoews wont match this piece?
also its just that i just have a bad habbit of checking discord too often so theres why
i tried lol, then i had to come down to use the toilet
AGUSTAV
I just showed you how I'd do that
youre making me hate these pipes
im tired of them
the pipes can go die in the sewers
but how do i make them match then lol
no like the connecting pieces
this is how you showed your x piece
your pieces already connect?
but shading the corner that way would mean the shadows wont line up
I have 0 idea what is your problem
of course they won't line up, I redrew a single piece
you dont understand what im explaining 🥺
yes
Looking epic but bridge looks a little thin
thats the point noob
ah is that what he is asking for help?
All you need to look is the diagram on the right side
That's the my Traffic Light v.1.0 plugin's behavior for C-type trafflights
Imma head out 💨

Finally i13 road bridges!
btw i could help you with the bridge
if my pc is back
confusion
Kool
Yeah, and a little documentation of it on the forum
Some of player not even know where they need to place it.
I recommend to remove privew in doble line road, Just like chiggoba do.
What preview?
I mean animation and fg
They didn't allow players to place it in doble way road
doble
Double
double
🌚
Oh you meant two-way road, right
But road deco preview already provides A deafult road frame, we can't change that road frame, idk how to change tha... ||ohh wait, there's a loophole||
I think I get it
NO WAY
It will all make sense if you'll see it in action, ig?
that’s impossible
Well, ig, I'll make it more clear for this example
numbers
That TT screenshot is the exact representation of this Red Circle ⭕
where tX means time
t0 → first quarter of the cycle
t1 → second quarter of the cycle
t2 → third quarter of the cycle
t3 → fourth quarter of the cycle
rambling made up by the deranged
you are amazing, i dont understand like most of them, but you do you cause i know it will be great
sounds like me doing math for the arcade but more complicated
Forge Military Vehicles Pack
Update: Added another vehicle (UR-77 Meteorit Mine Clearing Vehicle)
This Package Supports TLMEP
Please delete older versions
Thanks for the support
It's free no copyright
Enjoy
Ah, so I was right
@chilly mango you in War game red dragon when you play the Soviets
as if i make well supported attacks
True you mostly go with the cheap stuff
hey, I believe this equation can be simplified into Meters x 1.664, essentially you're just multiplying the meters times 1.664
now your making it confusing for the stupid ppl (like me)
IRL measurement x 1.6 = pixels in game
got the nerd reaction 😭😭😭
lol
it should be way simpler
That's a bit wrong
The easier way is (to have math knowledge) divide by 0.6
omg true
So trou
this is the proposed equation
P(m)=m/0.6
P(m)=Pixels in game
m=meters
P(m) that's just f(x)
Considering P = 16, so 9.6 meters, it's 16(9.6). As a function, it's incorrect, as a multiplication, it doesn't give 9.6/0.6
I think I confused you
yeah
I didn't see
Now it's right
i anger
You hangar
Why you hanger
but it should just be a more streamlined version of what people are already doing, but I don't think making stuff to scale is the purpose in this game
They should do 1 pixel = 10m
imagine
wouldn't that mean a 50 meter wide build would be 5 pixels?
It would actually be smaller
yeah
10px= 1 meter would make it bigger
but why not 1px = 1m???
In a 14x14 map, it would be 896x16x10= 143 km
that's just how it is in game
everything is scaled up slightly
It is 0.6, according to the average height of a human
143⁉️ case 143💪
But Theotown humans are actually Dutch
yeah, ranging from 0.1 - 1.9 will result in a 1px using my maths
We're really doing math?
I just use the normal rule .1-.4 round down, .5-.9 round up
Basic things:
Theotown human = 3px = 1.80 meters
1 pixel = 0.6 meters
1 tile = 9.6 meters
yes
clarification: 9.6 m is the approximate diagonal of a tile, not width
The diagonal is 32 pixels right?
Well
The horizontal
So
Wait
Let's do math again
By using Pythagore
Ahh yes, approximations
We take one side and we do a triangle with it.
Vertical = 8px = 4.8m
Horizontal = 16px = 9.6
Side² = 4.8²+9.6²
Side² = 115.2
Side = square root of 115.2
Side = 10.7 meters
So
We're wrong
🤠
The problem is, the reference scale itself is base on the prescription of the proponents
What if the scale is not based on 3px human, what if someone based it on the average length of the car or the average width of the two-lane road? We'll never know
Get pidroided
love how this started because my friend pointed out something with my thing (not rlly my thing)
Lol
a tile is 32 px, not 16
also your math is all wrong
the diagonal of a tile is around 19.2 m, and the side is around 13.5 m considering a pixel is 0.6 m
I'm not going to try to understand how the hell did you get 10.7 by dividing 9.6 by sqrt(2)
I can't comprehend on your methmatics
actually yeah, I was originally under the assumption that it was .5m per pixel, since I used the roads as a reference and just wanted a nice number at the end of the day 
9.6 meters= 16 pixels
Not 32 pixels wich is the wide of 1×1
There is a significant difference on applying directly the Pythagorean Theorem, since pixel lengths are based on the observer's point of view, instead on the isometric plane that we assume as a 3D world (implying the word "irl")
||Your methmetical method collapse here (so sad 😢)||
I'm referring that the plane of the observer's viewpoint (i.e., the plane of the phone screen) is NOT equal to the plane of isometric ground/earth (i.e., the plane of the flat earth Theonia).
This conclude that there's an angle between this two planes.
bro
Lol
lmaooo
pain
plugin mods making night animation hell for plugin creators
iit has something to do with light switching or something so different windows switch randomly instead of all at once
if I create a folder inside the external plugins folder, the game will still recognize the plugins that are inside?
Same thing happened to me
My plugins got disapproved due to that
So probably I fixed it then approved as well 🙂
hello
LSC, how come you dont have a plugin creator role?
I just don’t know how I don’t have
Just give me the plugin creator role
Ig
i cant do that, theres a procedure for it
apply for it???
How exactly am I going to do that tho
So where am I going to put the informations
Simply just dm?
send an email
To TheoTown. Right?
yes
did you read what i linked to?
Yeah I already did
So how long does it take to approve and get the role
just be patient
no clue, not long probably
thanks in advance
for me it was less than an hour cause he knew i was applying, i also used the forums
like who?
you dont have to
Yeah if people don't apply then they don't get the role
pretty sure they did not apply
It's that simple
Like TheLeaf, Xina and others
well they did not apply
xina is a plugin creator?
As for why Bunny specifically pointed it out for you 🤷
You know that he made simcity pack right
i think leaf used to have the role before he left?
honestly just saw him with the seasonal and corrupt role
nothing else
he probably had before but I'm not sure
look you dont have to apply if you want to, but youre a plugin creator and i was asking you why you didnt have it. Beacsuee maybe you didnt know how people got it.
its simple, just mail them or not
Oh alright
oke new plugin coming
🤠
His hat is bigger than the person 😲
Yuh
And I don't think I could make that mini hat cuz its complicated
1 pixel only
This?
You know it look like he wears cap and the cowboy's hat look like a bit long tho
Nice dead bush
@crimson basin
boosh
You know I'll chase you for this uh? 😈
Hmmm ok
I think i got the plugin novice role before
Which you can see how much my skills have improved lol
even aku got plugin intermediate before
you can ask to have your roles back, you know
🗿
Hau to git th ploogin intermedet role
hau baut novic atleast
Veri fämousse
make a few plugins
I want to stay a novice forever
Just because that means there'll be a lot more to learn
I want to be a plugin
i wanted to be an intermediate, now i dont really care
But i already do
(13 private plugins)
(4 public ones)
ill turn you to stone and make you into one
Make me into a plugin
i have a few private ones too. i just am not satisfied with them enough to release it
Naufhal released plugins lol, what you're scared of?
Ayo
Who remember Naufhal?
im not satisfied with them
some of them were just experiments
like the gradient buildings
and i have an emotional attachment to one of the plugins
and others are just wips
Private ploogin leak²
Modern style I see
I need it!1!1
die?
this
lol
i did update my shadws and add a few buildings after it
and im not a huge fan of the new buildings
Which buildings
idk lol
everytime i edit it i just change the ids and names and everything
i have a very cute ice cweam stand 🥺
pink and yellow ice cweam stand
my problem is it looks too cute i want to make it in different colours with rotation
and im lazy
I love modern
it bothers me that they dont all look the same
some of them dont look like they belong
I'm not satisfied with my school but I published it
Make it ununprivate
i dont work the same way 😭
i like doing it the best i can
i have a building that gives watermelon vibes xD
That's cute, you're not satisfied with this?
no ÙwÚ
So you make it public? :D
-1 fumo point for encouranging private ploogins to be public
(You got wordsensed)
not really, and im also not sure how i feel about other people using it, ive only worked on this when i was sad
no ÒwÓ
but maybe when im happy enough
I said ununprivate, which means that it's not unprivate, which means public
You got wordsensed
lol
🧠 I drain the brain
Btw I'm making an "experimental" new diagonal building
||Maybe you could get it||
I work on plugins when I think of them
i dont ever work on a plugin at a time, my head just doesnt wok like that
So basically almost never
pixly i just save my wip and open another lol
|| 👀 ||
Looks decent ngl even its unfinished
i dislike the part where i cant run a game and youtube
me when the new flower field??
carrots themselves grow underground bunny
are those like those marigolds?
Unfinished i mean it's a pack of several buildings
Lovely corn farm
@agile forum i hate you
Goddamn
sdv???
giant pumopkgin when
Reminds me of Golden Gate Bridge road parts
marigold
of course
when update
whenever we feel like making factories and whenever erk feels like coding
haha
if only you knew how bad it really was
hadestia did a large portion of the gui a while back
but everything else is written by me
ive seen you edit it a few times, but its not like i know what youre doing
im the only one who knows how the logic works
^
because nobody else has expressed interest in working on the code
also i have written all the jsons
but those are not beyond the rest of the teams understanding
me when
i like the big peuple patch
can you guess what flower that is
morning glory?
lavender
oh
lilac
bunnyflower
