[ jjinux @ 07:43 ] Python: Useful Utility for PGU's leveledit

I'm using PGU. If you're not using PGU, you can skip this post.

If you're like me, you sometimes get confused about when you're editing the tiles and when you're editing the background. My buddy drew an entire level, and the tiles and background were totally messed up. Rather than redo the entire level, I wrote a little utility to force all the tiles into the background. It's quick-and-dirty, but quite useful when you need it:

"""Take a TGA file, and force any tiles onto the background.

This is to make up for UI interface "difficulties" in PGU's leveledit.
