TiledBoard

class miniworldmaker.boards.board_templates.tiled_board.tiled_board.TiledBoard(view_x=20, view_y=16, tile_size=40, empty=False)

from typing A TiledBoard is a Board where each Token is placed in one Tile.

With Tiled Board, you can realize RPGs and Boardgames.

Each Token on a TiledBoard can be placed on a Tile, on a Corner between Tiles or on an Edge between Tiles.

Examples

Create Token on Tile, Corner and Edge:

from miniworldmaker import *
board = TiledBoard(6, 3)
board.grid = True
last_corner = None

tile = Tile((1,1))
t1 = Token()
t1.center = tile.position
t1.fill_color = (255,255,255)

corner = Corner((3,1), "nw")
t2 = Token()
t2.center = corner.position
t2.fill_color = (255,0,0)

edge = Edge((5,1), "w")
t3 = Token()
t3.center = edge.position
t3.fill_color = (0,0,255)
t3.size = (0.2,1)
t3.direction = edge.angle

board.run()

__init__(view_x=20, view_y=16, tile_size=40, empty=False)

Initializes the TiledBoard

Parameters

• view_x – The number of columns

• view_y – The number of rows

• empty – The board has no tiles, edges, and corners. They must be created manually

add_corner_to_board(position, direction)

add_edge_to_board(position, direction)

add_tile_to_board(position)

borders(value)

Returns the Board’s borders, if token is near a Border.

Return type

list

clear_tiles()

Removes all tiles, coners and edges from Board

Instead of clearing the board, you can add the parameter empty to Board to create a new Board from scratch.

Examples

Clear and re-create board:

from miniworldmaker import *
board = HexBoard(8, 8)

@board.register
def on_setup(self):
    self.clear_tiles()
    center = HexTile((4, 4))
    for x in range(self.columns):
        for y in range(self.rows):
            if center.position.distance((x, y)) < 2:
                tile = self.add_tile_to_board((x, y))
                tt = Token()
                t.center = tile.position


board.run()

Create a new board from scratch

Note

This variant is faster, because Tiles are not created twice

from miniworldmaker import *
board = HexBoard(8, 8, empty=True)

@board.register
def on_setup(self):
    center = HexTile((4, 4))
    for x in range(self.columns):
        for y in range(self.rows):
            if center.position.distance((x, y)) < 2:
                tile = self.add_tile_to_board((x, y))
                tile.create_token()


board.run()

detect_token_at_position(position)
