Module howto: hints for a total newbie?

[marchewka]

Fixed the wiki page

Almost. One more thing needs fixing. The http://te4.org/wiki/t4modules page still points at an invalid page, namely at http://te4.org/wiki/t4modules_module_howto_guides (underscores instead of the right stuff).

Fixed the wiki link, and I am writing a debug mode wiki page.

EDIT: Ok, the first revision is up here: http://te4.org/wiki/t4modules-debugging

Re: fixed link: when attempting to open the http://te4.org/wiki/t4modules-module-howto-guides page, i get "You are not authorized to access this page.", even if I'm logged in on the webpage.

- if i have a character started in a module, and then i made changes to the module, will the change be visible to the character, or do i need to make a new one?

Depends on the changes. Most code changes will carry to the old character, but data changes won't (or at least, not straight away). One example would be the monster list, which I think is updated only when you exit/enter dungeons.

The page http://te4.org/wiki/t4modules-tiled-plugin mentions a tarball with something called tiled engine tutorial {{:t4modules:tiled-tengine-tutorial.tar.gz|here}}.
Any idea just where is that sweetie available / how to get to it?

I don't know if the new wiki software supports attachments, but the next version of Tiled is in the release candidacy stage with the T-Engine plugin already built-in. The tarball you are referring to is a simple map I created to illustrate how the plugin can be used to create a small vault, and I should revisit it and add it to the wiki since the plugin will be readily accessible now. So in summary: coming soon!
