The link to ATCS is broken? I just tried the one here and it works: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=4806

Nut's description of how to both walk under something and over something is a tantalizing clue. But not much more :lol: Look at guynmart_wood_3.tmx for an example.

A spawngroup allows you to spawn monsters randomly. For example, if monster_a and Monster_b are both part of spawngroup monster_1, and you place a spawn area that uses monster_1 and spawns N monsters, the N monsters will be a random selection of monster_a and monster_b.
Oh ok, that is the one, I was trying the web links on the tutorial.
Are there any instructions on how to use it?
Edit:
Nvm found them.
Edit2:
There is only info on how to start up the app and open a map.

Is there any info on what exactly ATCS actually does? I can’t seem to find it.
Now I am really confused on whether to use tiled or ATCS for mobs, dialogues, the commands to walk from one map to the other and on how to put signs and hidden items.
The info on the tutorial mentions the web ATCS, which isn’t available anymore :(

Tiled should be used to create the graphics layers in maps, including the walkable layer (Ground, Objects, Above, Top, Walkable). ATCS should be used for everything else.

Ok thanks, is there a tutorial on how to use it?
The tutorial regarding maps only mentions to add map events and spawn layers in Tiled. Do I continue with this step or move directly onto ATCS?

Those can be done in either, and were originally done in Tiled, before the capability was added to ATCS. That's why you see older docs that way. ATCS helps you keep track of the cross connections between maps, mobs, scripts, etc., because it handles all that content data as well, so that's the better way to go now.

I need more information. Where are you having a problem? Have you installed Java? Have you downloaded the current release sources? Have you tried to create a project?

Hi,
Yes, I have installed everything and am able to browse the world map, as the ATCS manual described.
However, I am not so sure on how to transfer my map from Tiled to ATCS, and how to add content such as mobs, signs, dialogues etc.

Hello, I am the person above.
Haven't had much time recently, so sorry for being unresponsive...
I'll start by making a big sketch of all the areas I want to make.
