The alpha version of Sphere 0.93 is out. (it probably still has bugs) Test it! Break it! Send me e-mail!

Things that have changed:

  • redesigned spriteset interface (I'd say quite a bit easier)
  • use names for directions rather than numbers
  • SetLayerVisible
  • font.drawText does range-checking on characters
  • GetPersonSpriteset
  • zones (not editable in the editor yet)
  • improved surface rotation
  • drawing text to surfaces
  • gradient rectangles and all that jazz in surfaces
  • transformBlit surfaces
  • BindMouseButton
  • GetMapWidth, GetMapHeight, GetTileWidth, GetTileHeight
  • determine height of wordwrapped strings (font.getStringHeight(string, width))
  • sprite scaling in map engine
  • copy/paste in map editor
  • a console
  • various crashers
  • probably some other things ;)
