is it the 8x8 .ts file?

22

Never mind. It looks like an update more than an extension.

23

It’s an extension that allows you to set a 8x8 tilemap in blocks.

I just can’t find it. :confused:

I’m looking around Github and there is literally nothing I see that I can do. Is it just to save games?

Oooooooooooooo…Github is used to save your skin when you mess up your code so badly that undo can’t fix it.

Just kidding, but it actually does do that too.

So what do you do on it? Just save your games so they won’t be lost and they also help you debug some stuff as well? This is all very confusing for me…

32

I just copy and pasted the 8x8 code.

Yes.

I didn’t use an extension.

Thanks for taking up the hunt, @UnsignedArduino!

@Dreadmask197: GitHub considers itself a “community where more than 50 million* people learn, share, and work together to build software.”[1] GitHub, along with other communities like BitBucket and Azure DevOps Services, is a service that people use to store and to share code. For example, the MakeCode team stores and works together on the code for MakeCode Arcade at GitHub. (https://github.com/microsoft/pxt-arcade)

MakeCode Arcade (and most of the other MakeCode editors now) also can use GitHub to store and collaborate on code. You can learn more in the MakeCode Arcade documentation (https://arcade.makecode.com/github).

So you can store code so it won’t be lost (which I don’t know how to do) and you can share code with debug as well (which I don’t know how to do that either,) but it sounds cool. I’ve had an account since August I think and still have no idea how to use it.

@GameGod: I loaded the extension in MakeCode Arcade and it seems to be working properly. That may be why your game isn’t working correctly.

Delete the 8x8.ts file from your project. (You’ll need to switch to JavaScript mode to do that.) Then, add the extension to your project. (Search for https://github.com/riknoll/small-tilemaps in the list of extensions.) You may need to recreate your tile maps after adding the extension.

@Dreadmask197 : I haven’t gotten to that part of my book yet, but I’ll see if I can put together a small tutorial on GitHub.
