"Pixel Map Creator" Development #2 - 2021.10.3

Research


Since the game would be for an Android device, I needed to know how to make Android games using Unity.

To learn how to do this, I watched a few videos:

"Making an IOS/Android game in UNITY - Beginner Tutorial - #1" by Blackthornprod (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGleQZVgdN4&t=40s&ab_channel=Blackthornprod)

"TOUCH CONTROLS in Unity!" by Brackeys (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bp2PiFC9sSs&list=WL&index=1&ab_channel=Brackeys)

"Controlling Cross-Platform Characters with Unity Input System | Tutorial" by Unity (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5tOOstXaIKE&t=207s&ab_channel=Unity)


Setup


After watching the videos, I installed Android Studio and set up the Unity project so that it could run for Android devices. I also installed "Unity Remote 5," which is a mobile application that allows watching previews of a Unity project using a mobile device.


Programming


I copy-pasted some codes from my painting test and changed the input to touch, and ran it on my phone. It ran well, except for the part where all the tiles on the phone screen got squished.

I'm still glad that everything else works fine. I will fix the size problem later and test more features like a paint bucket.

I have always been interested in fantasy worldbuilding. Upon exploring various platforms related to worldbuilding, I discovered that there is a whole community of people with a genuine interest in worldbuilding. I wanted to create a tool that people of this community and the general public could enjoy.  Map building is a crucial process in worldbuilding. Having a well-organized map of your world helps you to visualize your world in an appealing way.  I've also drawn maps of my world before, using Medibang Paint Pro, one of the painting programs I use: There are several websites for worldbuilding and map building. My personal favorite is Inkarnate (https://inkarnate.com/), which is excellent for creating fantasy maps. However, I found them rather hard to use, which is why I just drew my maps in a painting program.  It is also inconvenient that these websites are suitable for computers only; it would be convenient if I could draw my maps during short breaks using my phone....

I finally figured out how to build the Unity program and run it on my Android phone. It was originally missing the NDK, SDK, and JDK, which I managed to install.  The Screen.width and Screen.height works perfectly, and the camera size adjusts to the phone size. The pixels are now squares instead of squished rectangles.  I also made it so that whenever I draw, there will be a one-pixel border. Doing the border was nearly impossible with my original method of setting tiles, so I had to completely change my method of setting tiles.  There are some thin black lines, and I can't figure out why they are there. I will try to fix it soon.
