This section defines the core terms used in Levelmock to avoid ambiguity while using the editor or interpreting exported data.
Level #
A Level refers to the collection of elements used to compose a scene. It can represent:
- A playable level.
- A single screen.
- A UI scene.
- Any structured 2D layout.
Grid #
The Grid is the guide used on the editor canvas. Its main functions are:
- Aligning visual elements.
- Working with consistent sizes.
- Facilitating the precise placement of pieces.
The grid size is typically fixed and depends on the specific needs of the project.
Pieces #
Pieces are reusable graphic elements used to compose:
- Scenes.
- Levels.
- User interfaces.
A piece represents a single, placeable visual unit within the level.
Properties #
Properties describe the characteristics of a piece. These may include:
- Transformation: scale, rotation.
- Positional: X and Y coordinates.
- Custom: user-defined properties based on the specific game logic.
Coordinates #
Since this is a 2D environment, all pieces are positioned using X and Y coordinates on the canvas. These coordinates define the exact location of every element within the level.
