Hello,

I feel like I am being a bit thick this morning.

I have a 128 x 128 sprite sheet as a .png.

I've tried importpng and the pictron exporter from asesprite. both exhibit the same behaviour, when I paste from the clipboard the whole image fills sprite 0 and sets its size to 128 x 128, I'm expecting the image to start at sprite 0 and fill outwards. Am I missing something obvious?

thanks in advance

you're not missing anything, that's just how this works (picotron sprites can be any size)

I made a sprite importer here that you might find helpful:

Or, you can open pico8, go to the sprite editor, then ctrl-c individual sprites and ctrl-v them into picotron -- that works too

Thanks Pancelor, I think I can't do what I want to do then at the moment.

Create a 128 x 128 sprite sheet in asesprite of 16 x 16 sprites
import the whole sheet into pictotron
Have pictron automatically place the sprites in the corresponding sprite positions (0,1,2,3..)

That used to be super easy in Pico8 :-(

I guess I could take the old route and then import from a .p8 into picotron
