Note: this program should only read / write the files in its directory. But as this is an early version, if you want to be safe(r), don't place important files in the same directory as the program
The GDE level editor is intended for level creation to GDE. To get the modified level to appear in GDE, follow these steps:
1 Create and save your level (see INSTRUCTIONS.md).
2 Locate the main folder for the application (should be the folder in which the application is in) and find the data file in data/level.gdat.
3 Replace the file "level.gdat" in GDE's data folder (where the application is, in the "data" folder). Any other files in the data folders should be ignored by either application.
Both GDE and the GDE level editor come with two similar levels: level.gdat and level_old.gdat. You can use them as a template or start from scratch (see INSTRUCTIONS.md).
The level files (level.gdat) can be read and modified as normal text files. If your level corrupts, here are some options to what you can do about it:
a) Redownload / -extract the (path to the main folder)/data/level.gdat file (or all the files)
b) Delete the (path to the main folder)/data/level.gdat file (you need to save the level to get a new file)
c) Modify the (path to the main folder)/data/level.gdat file with a text editor. The first line should read "x,y,triangle,flipped" (without the quotes) and all the other lines should be two integers seperated by commas, a comma and two other integers either with a value of one or zero, also seperated by commas from each other and the previous integers. This method is suggested only if a big level got corrupted.
