Sector

The sector format has changed a bit so this document is out of date, see data/sectors/trainstation/trainstation.wst.

A Sector is a single room or scene.

File Layout

Sectors are stored in data/sectors/, the main file is the .wst file, which defines the geometry and size of the sector. Scripts that are local shall be put in the same directory.

• data/sectors/{SECTORNAME}/{SECTORNAME}.wst
• data/sectors/{SECTORNAME}/{SCRIPTNAME}.nut

Script Path

Script paths are relative to the file that they are written in, i.e. a file data/sector/apartment/apartment.wst containing the entry (initscript "init.nut") will resolve to data/sector/apartment/init.nut.

Absolute syntax is currently not supported, syntax should likely follow HTML like convention, i.e. /scripts/init.nut would refer to data/scripts/init.nut

Units

The pixel image value is subject to change, will likely end up as\ 128 pixel == 1 meter.

• Blender Export Script: 1 meter == 2 blender units
• Pixel Images: 1 meter == 64 pixel

Objects

scriptable-object: complex 2D sprite object surface: simple 2D sprite object
