load_tile

Prototypevoid load_tile(string[191] tile_bmp, int tile_index)

load_tile() replaces the tiles at tile_index with tile_bmp. By default, TS01.bmp through TS41.bmp are loaded into indexes 1-41. If the tile_bmp cannot be found, it will look in the Dink directory, using the same path specified.

Tileset information is stored in the save game file, and the tilesets will be loaded in load_game().

This function is mostly useful if you want to replace all grass hills with snow or another comparable tileset.

Replace tile_index 17 with a tileset named "custom17.bmp" in the tiles folder of a dmod:

void main(void)
{
 load_tile("tiles/custom17.bmp", 17);
 
 //make it visible immediately.
 draw_background();
}
