KMP Cloud<br>

== Overview ==
−
Current version: v1.2.0.0<br>
+
'''KMP Cloud''' is a [[KMP]] editor created by [[Vulcanus2]].
  
−
Look at [http://vulcanus.woelmuis.nl] for the download.

See [[KMP Cloud Tutorial]] for more information.

Changelog:
+
=== Adding Points ===
−
* New plugin system
+
* '''Method 1:''' In the "Properties" tab at the bottom left is an Add-button, which will add new points. These new points will get placed at the origin (0,0,0) and can be clicked and dragged at will.
−
* Scale on OBJ background
 
−
* Bug-fix on the section indexer (which was just a visual bug)
 
  
−
Known bugs:
+
* '''Method 2:''' In the viewport, by pressing {{button|Alt}} + {{button|Left Click}}, a point will be placed wherever designated. The draw settings-button in the lower right corner allows different modes of placing points in the viewport. It is recommended to use the "Follow-me" selection when adding points for routes. The distance between each point can also be changed in the draw settings window.
−
* Failing relative plugin loading, if you start Kmp Cloud from any other location than the exe itself it changes it's relative path the where you started it resulting the plugin search to take place at the wrong place. It'll give an error that the configuration file ToolList.txt cannot be found on startup, you can ignore it.
 
−
* OBJ background scaler is limited to x 100, this is the default value for such a box.

'''Screens''':

=== Editing Group Properties ===
−
<gallery>
+
While the properties for each point can be edited within KMP Cloud, it is possible to bring them into a program like [[wikipedia:Microsoft Excel|Microsoft Excel]]. In the "Properties" tab, if the top left blank box is selected, the whole group will be highlighted. When the group is highlighted, the data can be copied with {{button|ctrl}} + {{button|c}} and then pasted into the spreadsheet. This can also be done by selecting a single row or selecting multiple rows. In Excel, the properties can be edited more easily.

Upon finishing the work in Excel, the cells used must be selected and copied. They can be added by pasting them into the group, this might require deleting the original IDs as they will not get replaced when pasting in the updated points. Alternatively, the data can be added by right clicking on the expandable tabs in the left shelf, then going to "Paste" and selecting "Group (Add)". This will make a new group for the points. The original group can be deleted then.
  
−
== Version 2.0 ==
+
Enemy route groups can be copied and pasted into the item route groups.
  
−
The next version of KMP Cloud has been planned, this time it'll be part of a little editor platform. From this platform you can load other programs to edit your files. This platform (It's not sure what it will be eventually called, the codename is WiiCloud), is able to open SZS files and cooperate with other programs made for it or let another program open it in a temporary file. This is similar to SZS Explorer, but it allows you to actually load the temporary files back in without saving it to a new location. The platform will contains a simple extendable script language, for KMP Cloud it'll be extended to work together with the UI. But now on to the actual features of KMP Cloud v2.
+
=== Rotating Points ===
 +
Some points, such as the start position and objects, can be rotated. "Rotation Mode" can be enabled by using {{button|ctrl}} + {{button|r}} or by selecting the "View" tab in the toolbar, and selecting "Edit Rotations". The rotation arrow in the viewport can be dragged around, but to get an exact angle, this can be edited in the "Properties".  
  
−
All features found in v1 will make a return, except the plugin feature, because KMP Cloud itself is a plugin for the platform it runs on. If you want to add functionality to KMP Cloud you should make a plugin for the platform and reference KMP Cloud, but most custom functionality can be created using the new script language. Really new features include dropping (which is already in other programs), multi-selecting like you're used to with Windows, Splines and the ability to save half-finished KMP files as XML file (so it saves a textual representation of the internal format).
 
  
−
Splines or more specific, cubic splines are curves that represent a set of points. These points do not exist if you create them and will be created if you save the kmp file. The spline data is stored with a set of key positions and a parameter that sets the amount of points between each key position, it further also contains a string with script data that will be executed if you save the kmp file. In this format it will also be saved to the XML file, that means your spline stays intact when using the XML format.

Overview

KMP Cloud is a KMP editor created by Vulcanus2.

Tutorial

See KMP Cloud Tutorial for more information.

Adding Points

  • Method 1: In the "Properties" tab at the bottom left is an Add-button, which will add new points. These new points will get placed at the origin (0,0,0) and can be clicked and dragged at will.
  • Method 2: In the viewport, by pressing Alt + Left Click, a point will be placed wherever designated. The draw settings-button in the lower right corner allows different modes of placing points in the viewport. It is recommended to use the "Follow-me" selection when adding points for routes. The distance between each point can also be changed in the draw settings window.

Editing Group Properties

While the properties for each point can be edited within KMP Cloud, it is possible to bring them into a program like Microsoft Excel. In the "Properties" tab, if the top left blank box is selected, the whole group will be highlighted. When the group is highlighted, the data can be copied with ctrl + c and then pasted into the spreadsheet. This can also be done by selecting a single row or selecting multiple rows. In Excel, the properties can be edited more easily.

Upon finishing the work in Excel, the cells used must be selected and copied. They can be added by pasting them into the group, this might require deleting the original IDs as they will not get replaced when pasting in the updated points. Alternatively, the data can be added by right clicking on the expandable tabs in the left shelf, then going to "Paste" and selecting "Group (Add)". This will make a new group for the points. The original group can be deleted then.

Enemy route groups can be copied and pasted into the item route groups.

Rotating Points

Some points, such as the start position and objects, can be rotated. "Rotation Mode" can be enabled by using ctrl + r or by selecting the "View" tab in the toolbar, and selecting "Edit Rotations". The rotation arrow in the viewport can be dragged around, but to get an exact angle, this can be edited in the "Properties".
