Algodoo

It's only barely been a week, but I have been working on my collapsible forms scene and I have made some pretty serious improvements!

These forms were inspired by s_noonan's collapsible forms, and my habit of creating generator scenes!


This scene lets you visually create collapsible forms that can be used in your scenes.
By collapsible forms, i mean a window with inputs on it that can be saved as a single geometry.
I wanted to create these to make my generator scenes simpler, and because I honestly just thought it would be fun (and it was!).

Included in the scene are 5 sample forms (Calculator, Gear Generator, Polygon Generator, Star Generator, and Tree Generator), and a tutorial on how to create your own forms.
As well, there is the visual form creator itself, which I have spent a lot of time on.

I plan to use these forms to make my third generation Terrain generator, and perhaps some phun little prop generators, like a rock generator, house generator, or a new tree generator.


Have phun!

2017 - 2025 Little (XCS)

If you use parts of this scene (including forms you generated) in your scene, please make sure to credit me! :'D

EDIT: Added a tree generator to the sample forms.

EDIT 2: Version 1.1! I have optimized the form generation code slightly, added support for angled panels, and added the ability for forms to persist after reloading the scene.

EDIT 3: Forms can now be dragged by their titlebars.

EDIT 4: Made the tree generator look slightly better

EDIT 5: Tree generator now groups trees (suggestion by Xray), added terrain generator form!

EDIT 6: Version 1.2! Forms now support all shapes, not just boxes! All sample forms have now been rebuilt and the default form window has been overhauled to look more like something you would see on an operating system such as Ubuntu.

EDIT 7: Version 1.3, the biggest update yet!
Persistent forms can now survive being dragged out of phunlets (before they kind of glitched out)
Forms now support dynamic addition/removal of form members (i.e. "panels")
Moved tutorial from a form to static text
Overhauled spawn asset menu

EDIT 8: Version 1.3.1
Fixed some really annoying bugs and re-added the phunlet safety code because apparrently even though i very specifically remember bug testing it multiple times and sharing it within my group it doesnt exist and never existed (i blame Algodoo not saving sometimes)

New forms will no longer crash Algodoo if they are closed after form members are improperly deleted, I haven't applied this to the sample forms yet though because im too frustrated and I'm in a hurry to fix the phunlet thing
