Template Instructions
Blue Marble will display your template as the same size. If your image is 500 pixels tall and 300 pixels wide, the template will be 500 pixels tall and 300 pixels wide. Here is the instructions to display a template image on the canvas:
- Find the pixel of the top left corner. Fill in
Tl X
,Tl Y
,Px X
, andPx Y
with the coordinates. You can use the "Pin" icon to auto-fill the coordinates after clicking the pixel.
- Upload a PNG or WEBP image.
- Click the "Enable" button.
Script Settings
There are many settings available for the Blue Marble userscript! Through these settings, you can control how the script behaves.
Template Settings
Transparent Pixels
Templates for Blue Marble work slightly different from normal. Since there is a "Transparent" color, and transparent pixels in templates are typically ignored, your template should have a custom color to signify "Transparent" colored pixels. If a specific pixel can be any color, it should be transparent in the template. If a specific pixel should be "Transparent" color, it should have the #deface
hex color. Any #deface
colored pixel in your template will be interpereted as the "Transparent" color. Any transparent colored pixel in your template will be interpereted as ignored.
Coordinates
Tile Coordinates
The coordinate system for wplace.live is unique. Instead of all pixels having a global coordinate number (x, y), the coordinate number is relative to the tile. This means you need to know the tile number and the coordinate number to do anything. In Blue Marble, the tile coordinates and the pixel coordinates are displayed when you click on a pixel. These are the coordinates you should use for aligning a template.
Template Coordinates
The template is aligned from the top left corner of the template. You can auto-fill this position using the "pin" icon next to the coordinate input boxes.
How Versioning Works
The versioning system for this userscript follows the Semantic Versioning rules. As such, it is formatted in an X.Y.Z
format where:
- X is the major version. This is incremented when a non-backward compatible update is pushed. This is for new features that break previous versions of the userscript. Additionally, if wplace.live breaks the userscript, this will be incremented.
- Y is the minor version. This is incremented whenever I push to GitHub. This is for stable bug-fixes and new (non-breaking) features.
- Z is the patch version. This is incremented whenever I launch a development version of the userscript to test a patch. This is for unstable bug-fixes/features.
