Map size

Height: Set the height of your map Width: Set the hidth of your map

if you create a big map you will have to use the zoom out feature.

Enemy Identification (so_long BONUS)

If you want to create a map with enemies you can set your so_long bonus enemy char / int.

Rubber

Not sure which Block you want at this Position? No problem, just use the rubber to delete the actual block. You dont have to use the rubber, you can just replace the actual block with another one.

IMPORTANT: if you generate a map with white rubber places you will have some "6" in your number map. its only for visual purpose.

Zoom out

To see the whole map, you can zoom in. Be careful: zooming in can freeze the page at the moment.

Wall: Draw walls (NumberMap identifier: 1) Floor: Draw the floor. Floor is the default filled block (NumberMap identifier: 0) Collectible: Draw collectibles (NumberMap identifier: 1) Player/Start: Draw start (NumberMap identifier: P) Enemy: Draw enemy (NumberMap identifier: [your choice -> default F]) Goal: Draw exit (NumberMap identifier: E)
