In the editor, select a tile, then press copy (either by mouse or hotkey).
Observed: The copied tile is inserted at an offset of 16 pixels, both in x- and in y-direction, from the original tile.
Expected: The copied tile is inserted in place.
Very useful then: Some visual cue that we really inserted a new tile, e.g., the copied tile dashes into place for 0.2 seconds. This dashing should be aborted when we move or change the selection.
Workaround, for whoever wants this earlier: Since Lix 0.9.36, Lix supports a hidden option (not in the options menu) that you can edit manually in your user/options.sdl text file:
editorCopiedTilesOffest 0 to insert the copied tile at the same position, i.e., at offset (0, 0). Warning: Copying a tile won't have any visual feedback.
editorCopiedTilesOffest 16 to restore the default of inserting the copied tile at an offset of (16, 16).
A long-term solution should have good visual feedback for inserting with (0, 0) offset.
Edit 2023-06-18: The spelling has a typo, and for the hidden feature you must adhere to that typo. The last 3 letters in editorCopiedTilesOffest are est, not the correctly-spelled set.
Is this working as of 0.10.11? When I add this line and open Lix, nothing changes, and upon closing lix, the line gets removed from user/options.sdl.
This may point at another issue: Options which are unknown to the game are removed from user/options.sdl. For example, I noticed that my undo/redo hotkeys got removed when I briefly played in 0.9 and then went back to 0.10.
Just checked. The hidden feature exists, but I made a typo. In user/options.sdl, search for editorCopiedTilesOffest 16 ending in the misspelled est 16, not set 16. Set the 16 to 0 and save.
