Tilemap from array

[jorgesereno]

Hi,

taking for example an array like this:

initPlatformMap = [            [0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0],            [0,1,1,0,0,0,0,0],            [0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0],            [0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0],            [0,0,0,0,0,1,1,0],            [0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0]        ];

how can i create a tilemap on screen replacing the 1's with an image and then move the tilemap up and randomly generate the next lines?

It has been a while since I did it but I started down this route once and if I remember correctly I created a blank tilemap and then used putTile to place tile types. Not only was it a while ago but also it caused a major performance hit while this looped through placing the tiles so I left it and did something else. It did have the desired result though just with a multiple second lag while it ran.

This was before Phaser 2 so it may be more efficient now or there may be a better method that I didn't discover but I'd recommend looking a putTile() as a starting point.
