https://www.lemmingsforums.net/index.php?topic=4483.new;topicseen#newI was going to post this in the topic above since it is related to the above in some way.
I feel like since it has been allowed to have tileset recolours in the styles download then why am I not allowed to replicate items such as these across all of my Sonic styles?
This is just a few examples but these objects and steel could potentially benefit from being in all of my Sonic tilesets but the tileset replication rules prevent this.
When IchoTolot gave me some feedback on Star Light recently, one comment he made was that the tileset needed some custom Steel to which I said that there is custom Steel but it is in the Sandopolis tileset. I feel like the steel in this tileset is very versatile and I feel like making other custom steel for the other tilesets would be obsolete due to how good the steel is above.
Also the other objects above which are common elements to all Sonic zones are only in Scrap Brain, again NOT allowed to be replicated in the other styles.
I feel like my styles are not user friendly because it is not exactly written in stone anywhere that you have to go to Sandopolis to get the steel or get the level objects above from Scrap Brain.
I also feel it is unfair that if styles are being replicated with re-colours like what is being said in the topic linked above then why am I not allowed to replicate a handful of images across all of my Sonic styles? The images are not that big, about 1KB at most.
I currently have 7 tilesets that are made almost entirely by myself (with a little help from other people) which I would like to introduce at least the above items to all of.
flopsy_scrapbrain (contains the above sprites)
flopsy_starlight
flopsy_marblegarden
flopsy_casinonight
flopsy_mysticcave
flopsy_deathegg
flopsy_sandopolis (contains the steel already)
+ another 2 are collaborations with GigaLem, I do not intend on bringing these items to those 2 tilesets at all.
I also have another 6 unreleased and unannounced Sonic styles which will release with GGF when it is finished, not having these items pictured above to hand in these styles is not exactly making these styles easy to use either.
