Crassus Pauper, one of our forum regulars, was kind enough to help us out with an intricate little Java Script that will assist you in making housing layouts, like the ones presented in this section of the Strategy pages.

We hope to put up a stand alone version in the not to far future.

Enjoy

How does it work?
Type in the items in the Character-Input text area

Example:

HHHHFHHHH
HHHHDHHHH
RRRRRRRRR

Click on The button labeled "Image"
See Legend for all supported glyphs and the assigned characters. Note the image directory must be set to Local Dir.
If you want to save your work, cut and paste your character input into a text file
the program scans from top/left to bottom/right, therefore the following two inputs will produce the same output:

LLHHHHFHHHH
LLHHHHDHHHH
RRRRRRRRRRR

L.H.H.FH.H.
......D....
RRRRRRRRRRR

How do I get it into the forum?
Click on the Forum Directory button ("Forum-Dir")
Generate HTML-Code with HTML-Code
Cut the code from the Code-Output text area ([CTRL]+[A] then [CTRL]+[C]) and paste it into your post ([Ctrl]+[V]).

Notes

The size is restricted to 40 rows by 40 columns
