-------=====#########=====-------
Latest update (1.2.x The Mechanics Update I): Warp pipes, scroll stop and more! And many new decorations:
-------=====#########=====-------
nSMM (short for Super Mario Maker for TI-Nspire) is a project I've been working on for a while, but for some reason never shared with an actual active forum until now.
This game allows you to play, share and edit mario levels, directly on your calculator! It's currently at the point where I would consider it to be a "ready" version.
This is a list of just some of the stuff you can do, you can discover everything by checking out nSMM:
- Many enemy types, such as goombas, koopas, piranha plants, buzzy beetles and bullet bills
- Many tile options, including ground, one way gates, platforms, spikes and lava!
- Warp pipes, with different options for entrances and exits
- 4 themes: overworld, nighttime, underground and castle, each with their own decor (multiple themes can be used in one level)
- Combine warp pipes, scroll stops and themes to make different areas of a level and make it truly unique
- A competent editor, complete with selecting, viewing the player's trail and an eyedropper tool
- Unique title screen which scrolls to pages, laid out like a level
- Level saving system, accessible in the local levels list in the main menu
- Working course world, which acts as a separate file that can be loaded by the game!

1. CONTROLS
NOTE: Lua programs (such as this) do not support holding down buttons. To maintain an input (eg running) you must press the button repeatedly. The arrow keys can be held down, but only after a delay - making it awkward. PLAY MODE
4/Left - Move Left 6/Right - Move Right 5/Up - Jump 2/Down - Crouch (–)/Space - Fireballs Esc - Pause DEBUG SHORTCUTS: 0 - Power Down, 1 - Power Up, 8 - Move 1 Pixel Left, 9 - Move 1 Pixel Right, R - Randomise, F - Frame by Frame, D - Disable Debug Mode, C - Print Level Code to Console, S - Copy Level Code to Clipboard, L - Load Level Code from Clipboard (ADVERSE BEHAVIOUR HAPPEN WHEN USING THESE!) CREATE MODE (EDITOR)

2. PLAYING LEVELS
To play levels, the idea is the same as any other Mario game - run, jump and stomp enemies. To find levels to play, you can either look in the Local Levels screen (from the title screen: Play▸Local Levels) for levels you have imported (see section 4) or created (see section 3). You can also import levels from the Course World (see section 5).
3. CREATING LEVELS
To create a level, you can simply start by pressing 'Create' at the title screen. You can then open a file by pressing Menu▸File▸Open. To save a level, press Menu▸File▸Save. Any future saves once a file is open will automatically go to it's slot.
Click on the touchpad to place a block, or press ctrl then click to create a selection. All blocks/entities occupy one grid tile. It is not possible to stack anything.
To apply a theme, press on the themes group in the tilebar and select one. Then, apply it to the area you want it (you can fill a selection to make this much faster).
To stop the player jumping over the top of a level, place a ground block or hard block at the top of the screen (these are ceiling blocks).
To change some level behaviour, see the Modifiers tab in the Menu:
· disableBackScrolling - makes scrolling work like SMB1 · allowBidirectionalSpawning - mushrooms can spawn to the left like SMB3 · enableGlobalEntities - entities don't despawn and always run their logic (lag possible) · enableShellBouncing - an old feature of nSMM which is now off by default, allows mario to bouce on moving shells · enableCoinOnKill - you get a coin every time you stomp something · enablePowerupBouncing - another old nSMM feature, allows powerups to be bounced when coming into contact with a moving shell · showCeilingBlock - duplicates the block visually above a ceiling block (ground/hard block)
Other things can be changed in the Menu tab too, such as enabling autoscrolling and automoving, changing the time limit and the stage length.
4. SHARING LEVELS
To share levels, you can export them as level codes. From here, you can send it to a friend or submit them to the level repository in the Discord server. If the levels are good, they can also be added to the Course World ☺.
5. COURSE WORLD
To access Course World, download the latest 'nSMMCourseWorld' file from the Discord server, or from one of the forum threads. Place this file into a folder called MyLib at the root of the file system. Then, press DOC, then 6.
