Thanks!

I will never understand why these options are not part of the menu in the game

Yeah, that's a real question. Along with "why don't we have a complete modding toolkit with api reference", etc...

Second tab (towns) is working now.

That's a preview version, only the "World" tab is working right now. More to come...

Could you create a "reset to original" button, which would reset all details to the originals?

It's already here, second toolbar button

I'll release MacOS version if someone will need it, but i won't do Linux port, sorry. It's too much pain to support all those distros and graphical toolkits.
However, you can run it with wine, there are no external dependencies.

That's strange.
Okay, i'll sort it out later. Right now i disabled all languages except english. Just download tfce-dev.zip from the first post again.

It should automatically detect your system language. Is it happening? What language do you get and what is your system language?

I'm working on a new tool which helps to edit base_config for Transport Fever.

This is a support thread, all downloads, description and changelog are available in the filebase.

Currently playing with a simple 3d preview. Loading time is about 3 seconds for a big map, still better than running TF every time.

1.3.0 beta 2 is here!
Everything in one picture:

Sorry, fixed the link.
Already found a couple of bugs which may lead to crashes (e.g. open the map, uncheck "fit", reload, check "fit").

Another version is here, but since it's a huge update (not just in terms of features, but also in terms of internal logic) i'm releasing this one as a beta.
Any help with testing is really appreciated.

1.3.0 b1
+ option to show map height levels
+ showing height level under cursor
+ loading steps
+ water
* huge internal logic changes, expect bugs

I expect a bit more sophistication which is why I will take the old regexp code of my lua "parser" for TFMM.
This ensures that the data is taken from the correct places and also handles comments and different data types.
However, it is not a parser, so the code has to follow a certain format, much like your proposed regexp

By the way, did you try this extension? I believe that you can simply call data() from map.lua and parse its return object.

Zitat von Xanos

Since parsing of lua in PHP ist quite a challange, I do not have an ETA for this.
I am very sorry.
I will try to implement a "brute-force / best guess" parser early on but cannot guarantee anything.

That's the problem, yeah. Writing or integrating a complete lua parser is a lot of work.
So i did it with PCRE. Not proud of it, but well, it works

Here is the set of regexps that i wrote:

position:   ".*pos[ ]*=[ ]*{[ ]*([0-9-.]+),[ ]*([0-9-.]+)[ ]*}"
name:       ".*name[ ]*=[ ]*_\(\"([^\"]+)\"\)"
sizeFactor: ".*sizeFactor[ ]*=[ ]*([0-9-.]+)"
fileName:   ".*fileName[ ]*=[ ]*\"([^\"]+)\""

You can test it here.

Then i perform a total guessing - if we have a fileName then it's definitely an industry, if we have a name then it's a town, etc.

Idea: zooming greyscale map.

I didn't do zooming, but now you have an option to show the map in its original resolution by pressing 5th button in the toolbar. Hope that will help.

Version 1.2.0:

• option to show the heightmap in its original size
• fixed possible memory leak
• fixed plist for os x

Zitat von Jey_Bee

Can you fix it, that "deactivated" (with: -- ) citys/industrys not shown on map?

Done

Version 1.1.2:

• skip parsing of the commented lines

Zitat von akyyy

Thanks. Idea: zooming greyscale map.
easier to be placed city and indrusties.

Writing dynamic zoom is too hard and time consuming, but i'll see what i can do.

By the way, i made a tutorial video, it's available in the first post.

Thanks, fixed.

Version 1.1.1:

• fixed incorrect coordinate calculation for small heightmaps
• adjusted fonts in OS X build

Zitat von akyyy

its not perfect

Looks like a bug. Can you please attach the map you used?

I'm not trying to create a competition here, take it easy.
My tool is somehow related to yours, but it differs a lot, like a different solution for the same task, try it and you'll see.
It's a viewer, not a creator/editor. The idea is to open an existing map (created with your web app, fo example) to check town placement and maybe modify something by editing lua config manually.
