How to "draw" with Sources?

[fabkury]

Hi! Thanks for the nice software!

I see I can create and use a brush with lines like this:

var iron = brush(20);
rectangle(200,  20,  50, 300, iron);

But what if, instead of iron, I wanted to draw a rectangle of fire source? E.g. primary brush is Source II (id = 231), secondary brush is fire (id = 130).

Thanks!

Hi. It's probably not well documented, but it's possible. There are hidden effect brushes that create a source when applied.

var fire = brush(130);
var sourceEffect = brush(243);  // 240-243

for (var x = 0; x < 10; x++) {
    canvas.set(50 + x, 50, fire);
    canvas.set(50 + x, 50, sourceEffect);
}

Thank you so much for the prompt answer!

This is the kind of thing I'm using your software for -- creating pixel art.
