Switchez

Tile Properties/Attributes: User

Edit Objects Dialog Box
The following fieldz are required for every Switch.

ID: Calculated, after CalcCowID
(Absolutely required!)
Logic: TileTriggerSwitch
Image Set: GAME_WAPWORLDONLY_SWITCH
Speed X: The Gruntz Level Editor will generate the X Tile coordinate of the Switch when CalcCowID is pressed.
Speed Y: The Gruntz Level Editor will generate the Y Tile coordinate of the Switch when CalcCowID is pressed.
If it is at all possible for a Grunt (or Rolling Rock) to activate any type of Switch, there must be a TileTriggerSwitch logic on that Tile, or the game will exit when the Switch is pressed. If there is a TileTriggerSwitch logic, there must be an associated TileTrigger logic (on a Tile of the proper type), or the Custom Level will not load at all.

Switch Tilez always come in pairz; raised (unactivated ... odd numbered Tilez) and depressed (already used, or a Grunt is standing on it ... even numbered Tilez ... unactivated + 1). This Topic will only describe unactivated Switchez, as only four depressed varieties (#216, #218, #240 and #242) can exist permanently in a Gruntz Level (it wouldn't make sense to use them in designing a Custom Level).
Press "CalcCowID" to complete creation of a Switch!

When you are in the Gruntz Level Editor, this Tile will always appear as Yellow and blank, as it appears in the "Tile Images" sub-window. It will appear differently when the (Custom) Level is loaded by the Gruntz game, if a value other than 0 is entered in the Smarts: field of the Edit Objects dialog box, when the graphic for the required Tool (see Appendix B: Toolz) or Toy (see Appendix B: Toyz) will appear on the Switch Tile.

Toggles every associated Purple Pyramid.
Usually, more than one of these Switchez is required to satisfy the conditions for
raising or lowering the associated Purple Pyramidz. (Tilez #255 and #256 ).

The Orange Switchez are required to have all the other ID #s of the Orange Switchez in the group. Orange Pyramidz should contain the switch ID of the Orange Switch in the group that is supposed to toggle them. Important!
