Create a Minecraft-style level editor where users can design and edit levels with elements such as grass, stone, and water. The level editor should allow users to save their creations to a JSON file and load them back from a JSON file. Features - Block Types: Ensure that users can choose from different block types, including grass, stone, and water, to build their levels. - User Interface: Design a simple intuitive interface where users can select blocks from a toolbar and place them on a grid-based layout. Interaction Placing and Removing Blocks - Placement: Click on a grid cell to place the selected block type. - Removal: Right-click (or a designated key) on a block to remove it from the grid. Save and Load Levels - Saving: Provide a 'Save' button that the user can click to save the current level layout to a JSON file. - Loading: Allow users to input a file name to load a previously saved level when they click a 'Load' button. JSON Structure - Design a JSON structure that effectively represents the level layout, including positions and types of blocks. Best Practices - Use a grid-based layout system for simplicity and accuracy in block placement. - Keep the UI responsive so that users can build efficiently with minimal lag. - Ensure the save/load functionality is robust and handles potential errors gracefully, such as invalid file names or corrupted data files. Design Layout - Toolbar: Include a section with icons for each block type and buttons for saving and loading levels. - Grid: Present the editable grid space where users will place their blocks. This editor should provide a seamless and engaging experience similar to building in Minecraft, with a focus on simplicity and functionality for saving and loading created levels.
