<h1>GTE Tool Set</h1>
<p>
The <em>Generic Tile Engine (GTE)</em> Tool Set enables tile-based games to be implemented in an efficient manner.
The tool set provides support for sprites, animations, large scrolling backgrounds and special effects.
</p>
<p>
To effectively use this tool set, a user should be familiar with the following
</p>
<ul>
<li>The IIgs Hardware Reference</li>
<li>The QuickDraw II tool set</li>
<li>IIgs Technical Note #70</li>
</ul>
<p></p>
<h2>A preview of the GTE Tool Set routines</h2>
<p>
To introduce you to the capabilities of the GTE Tool Set the routines are grouped by function and briefly
described in Table 1. These routines are descibed in detail later where they are separated into housekeeping
routines (discussed in routine number order) and the rest of the GTE Tool Set routines (discussed in alphabetical
order).

<h2>Using the GTE Tool Set</h2>
<p>
This section discusses how the GTE Tool Set routines fit into the general flow of an application and gives you an
idea of which routines you'll need to use under normal circumstances. Each routine is described in detail later in
this chapter.
The GTE Tool Set depends on the presence of the tool sets shown in Table 2 and requires at least the indicated
version of each tool set be present.

<p>
To use the GTE Tool Set routines, your application must call the GTEStartUp routine before making any other GTE
calls. To save memory, the GTE Tool Set may be started up with some features disabled. See the section <a
href="#GTEStartUp">GTEStartUp</a> in this chapter for further details.
</p>
<p>
Your application should also make the GTEShutDown call when the application quits.

The GTE Tool Set uses two consecutive pages of bank zero for its direct page space starting at <it>dPageAddr</it>.
If the <tt>ENGINE_MODE_DYN_TILES</tt> flag is set in the <it>capFlags</it>, the GTE will attempt to allocate an
<em>additional</em> eight pages of bank zero space. If the <tt>ENGINE_MODE_BNK0_BUFF</tt> flag is set, then GTE
will attempt to allocate an ~32KB buffer from $2000 to $9CFF in Bank 0.

Loads a tileset into the internal GTE memory buffer. The <span class="sc">pointer</span> must point to
tiles that are already in GTE tile format.
</p>
<p>
A tile set is an array of (up to) 512 tile definitions and each tile definition is 128 bytes. The tile definition
is comprised of four, 32-byte tiles; a normal tile, its mask, a horizontally flipped versio of the tile and its mask.
The first 128 bytes of a tileset must be set to zero.

<p>
The sprite descriptor is a subset of the full sprite bitfield. Only the starting Tile Index and

When a sprite has a size greater than 8x8, the horizontal tiles are taken from the next tile index
and the vertical tiles are taken from <tt>tileID + 32</tt>. This is why tile sheets should be saved
with a width of 256 pixels.

A sprite can have negative coordinates and be placed off-screen. A sprite's coordinates are local
coordinates on the playfield; a sprite will not move automatically when <tt>GTESetBG0Origin</tt> is changed.

<h4>GTEAddTimer</h4>
<p>
Adds a timer with a callback function and a delay in VBL ticks. Timers may be repeated or one-shot timers. A one-shot
timer will remove itself after firing. Timers are handled on a best-effort basis. It is possible that a timer
callback could be invoked multiple times in a single frame and the callback functions should account for this possibility.
</p>
<p>
The intended use for timers is to provide a way to perform animations and game physics at a consistent rate,
regardless of the speed of the machine. If a timer has not been invoked for over one second, then it will
<em>not</em> fire multiple times, but treat the current timestamp as its starting point. This is to avoid a
"callback storm" if timers are added then a long period of time elapses. It is recommended that timers be
removed if they are not expected to be fired on a regular basis.
