Webitor: Bitfighter level-editor, in your browser

Ey!

I've just finished this thing, called the Webitor. It's a web browser level editor for Bitfighter. I've been working on it for some time now, so here it is :)

The Webitor (cool name) supports most of Bitfighter's objects, and a few commands like scale, rotate etc. Here are the features:

You can:
- Make walls with right click
- Add most of the objects supported by the game, including secret ones (sorry devs!)
- Press Escape to modify level settings
- Download the level
- Upload the level to the Pleiades database

Here is a list of the currently supported commands. To use these, press the indicated key:
- 'g': gets the selected objects, and brings them to your cursor
- 'h': flip selected points horizontally
- 'v': flip selected points vertically
- 'r': rotate selected points
- 'x': scale selected points
- 'Enter': modify selected objects' attributes
- 'Ctrl + c': copy selected points
- 'Ctrl + v': paste selected points
- '1 to 0': change the current team, for changing object teams
- Hold space to disable snap-to-grid
- Hold shift to move faster
- Scroll to zoom

NOTES:
- You can't select objects, you can only select points. If you want to do something, like changing an attribute of an object, select one or more points of it.
- There is NO undo, be careful!
- Wall corners look round, but they aren't really

Known bugs:
- Rotate (r) also changes the scaling of the points, maybe due to floating points?

So, that's it! I hope to port it over to mobile eventually, like that we can finally bring level creativeness with us.

I have it hosted here if you want to try it out.

It is released under the GPL, so you can check out the source code here. But beware, it's a mess!

This. If you can get it to work mobile, I'll be even more impressed. I know I'd use it; inspiration doesn't wait, it pops in at the most random of times, and Bitfighter level inspiration is no exception.

I'll definitely try to get it onto mobile.

You can download an SVG editor, like Inkscape, or use one of those online PNG/JPG to SVG converters

Great work!

If you can get this to work as a android/apple app, I will gladly pay the $100 upfront fee to put it in the app store.

Some other hotkeys are missing: e and c for zoom, b for healthpacks, g for spawnpoints, etc. Most items have hotkeys that I'm pretty used to. Though obviously those would work less on an iphone.

Thanks! Keep in mind it is pretty dead, though :/ To make it work, we would have to rewrite completely, as it is an utter mess, but I agree it would be awesome on mobile.

Oh cool. When I tap on my tablet it does work but that's it so I end up placing whenever I tap a word and can't move, delete or resize anything hahaha

Oh man, I am surprised it even worked that much on a tablet :P I should really make it compatible, but sadly it is so badly made I would need to restart the whole project :/
