Being the developer of Tilengine, I am the only one who can explain everything that can be done, I cannot delegate this task to someone else. But since I'm a developer and not a technical writer, I'm delaying it. Although I recognize that the lack of complete documentation can put a lot of people back, and it is not good for the project. I should consider it an important task, right?
If you have the time it would be much appreciated if you could finish the step by step guide.
Your engine is perfect for 16-bit game developement, and nothing like it really exists or comes close to capturing the core features Tilengine offers; unfortunately the most important features of your engine are the most under documented, which makes the barrier to entry a bit difficult.
I understand that time is precious and it’s easier said than done, but if it’s something as little as not being a technical writer I would highly encourage you to just bite the bullet and finish writing it to the best of your ability. Even if it isn’t perfect, it would be better than nothing. No pressure though, as again, I understand finding the time to do these things can be tricky.
But yes, please consider it an important task if you can. Thank you for all the time you’ve put into the engine so far, and thank you for keeping up with the questions on the forum.
Cheers and have a great day!
