Minor adjustments and optimizations

  • Click priorities adjusted. Especially if you place several rooms on top of each other and use Deco Images.
  • Working in general with stacked rooms improved. For example, you can no longer accidentally click on an object on the first floor through a room above it.
  • Layers renamed to Groups. (These are not classic layers as known from image editing programs, but optional and do not affect the height of the objects. This may have been confusing)
  • Minor things and bug fixes

Layers, increased height, Godot 4.3

Layer System - Create/delete/name new layers - Layer groups on first level - Arrange layers/groups using buttons or drag and drop - Hide or lock layers/groups - Panel of the layer list can be folded in and out and grows automatically - Assign objects, paths, plots, rooms and deco images to a layer (also works with water) - The number of elements assigned to a layer is unlimited - Button add new objects to layer: If active, new objects, paths, plots, rooms and deco images are assigned directly to the selected layer - Multi-select support: Add several objects to a layer at the same time - If an object locked by a layer is clicked, the affected layer flashes briefly - Invisible layers are not taken into account during collision check, e.g. when creating a forest on a hidden layer with road and cottages - New keys: Toggle visibility of selected map layer (default J). Toggle locking of selected map layer (default K). Assign object to selected map layer (default L) Change: Deco images can now always be selected directly. It is no longer necessary to switch to the Deco Tool. Locking can be done via a layer Change: Deco images can no longer be shown or hidden individually via the hide button, but now via the layer system Change: Room design no longer on the right, but can now be opened separately at the top of the UI via a button when a room is selected Max height of all elements doubled Godot 4.3 + fallback to D3D12, if Vulkan is not supported (Windows only) Display in the UI for the changed property of an object (scale, rotation, height, ...). Can be activated in the settings Environment: Snow Color added Smaller things and improvements

[ 2024-01-26 14:32:10 CET ] [ Original post ]


Custom deco images, flickering objects fixed

  • The flickering objects on Nvidia graphics cards should now be gone. I had to try out quite a few things. Unfortunately it took a long time. I'm very sorry and thanks for your patience!
  • Also, you can now insert custom simple flat images e.g. as a background layer
  • A few minor things


[ 2024-01-06 11:15:21 CET ] [ Original post ]


Building tool, Godot 4.2

  • Building tool (path tool): Instead of choosing from a list of many individual buildings that are always the same, you will hopefully have more flexibility, speed and, above all, many more options. There are different thatched, wooden and pantile roofs.
  • Migration to Godot 4.2: Improved performance, rendering, shaders and, hopefully, better Vulkan support for graphics cards. Many thanks to all the people working on Godot!

[ 2023-10-19 14:23:37 CET ] [ Original post ]


Multi selection of objects

  • Multi selection of objects added. The selected objects can be moved, rotated, deleted and copied together. A maximum of 200 objects can be selected at the same time.
  • Click priorities revised a little.
  • Minor fixes.


[ 2023-08-28 14:43:14 CET ] [ Original post ]


Undo/Redo, Hex Grid and more

  • Undo/Redo implemented
  • Hex Grid added
  • Selecting points of an already selected path/plot has now always the highest priority. (For example, if you placed a forest on a wall and two points of the two paths overlapped, it was no longer possible to select only the point of the forest. This works now.)
  • Sometimes no objects were generated for a plot (e.g. a forest without trees). This should not happen anymore.
  • Export Bar: "Open Export Folder" button added (Key: Ctrl + Shift + U)
  • Map Settings: Maximum value for scale slider increased. This allows larger map areas to be exported without having to increase the resolution.
  • Map Settings - Digital Settings: The rows and columns were mixed up. I have corrected this.
  • Map Settings - Digital Settings: The number of tiles from the grid was not always as specified. I have corrected that too.
  • Map Settings - Digital Settings: Added a hint if the set image size is very large and the export may fail. The export depends on the hardware. The map area should then better be enlarged using the scale slider.
  • "Save before close" dialog added
  • The field is now only randomized at the beginning. Changing the size does not trigger a new randomization. The seperate key can now be used for this.
  • I added a simple placeable light source as object.
  • A few minor things


[ 2023-08-19 12:17:36 CET ] [ Original post ]

  • Paths/plots can now be redrawn by key without having to move a point
  • Path Closed, Delete Path/Plot and Snap to Paths now have a key binding
  • In the settings dialog you can now scale the UI up to 120%.
  • In the settings dialog you can now adjust the camera speed via keys
  • The camera speed is now also dependent on the zoom level
  • Minor bugs and optimizations

  • Canvas of Kings is a minimalistic mapmaking tool that focuses on randomness and auto-generated elements on user-definable and interactive paths and plots.

    Use flexible paths and plots

    You can define your map with paths and plots that you can adjust at any time. The automatic object placement supports you. In this way, you can directly create a wall with towers or simply an entire forest.

    Place lovingly hand-drawn objects

    Instead of placing and adjusting individual objects, you can randomly vary the object properties directly and use object categories to create a varied map without extra effort. The objects can also be combined. For example, you can place crates on towers or walls and move them together.

    Customise the lighting and weather

    Use the built-in lighting and weather system to change the atmosphere of your map the way you like it. Configure different details or simply choose a template.

    Export a definable area, with or without a grid

    Create an export area and the grid how and where you want. You can export parts or the whole map for print or digital use. You can also save your settings as a template for future maps.

    What you can't do with this tool (yet)
    • Create fully procedurally generated maps
    • Paint the landscape in the classic way
    • Create interior views of buildings or caves
    • Insert texts or decorative elements
    • Import custom assets
    • Export to VTT format (except: png/jpg, with/without grid. Map is saved as .json)
    • Create animations
    • There are certainly other things... :)

    About the developer and this tool
    I'm actually working on a trading simulation called Might of Merchants alongside my family and full-time job. For this I have developed some tools. I was asked if I could publish them. So I put in some work and created this software. It's not perfect and not finished yet, but I would be very happy if you use it and thus support my work.
    Your feedback is very welcome!

    No additional commercial licensing is required.
