Probably someone has already noticed this but I gave the gtk_args macro a try and noticed it's missing the inputs tag.  To get it to work I needed to do this:

class Dungeon
  gtk_args
  attr_accessor :inputs
  ...
end
$dungeon = Dungeon.new
def tick args
  $dungeon.args = args
  $dungeon.inputs = args.inputs
  $dungeon.tick
end

I set the strange_yoffset back to zero and it drew up on the y axis again.  I'm using the latest version (June 5).

Having a great time playing with the toolkit.  Its a lot of fun and pretty easy too.   What I'm trying to do is generate a maze using tiles and dumping it into a pass.  Then I'll scroll around and look at it.  Everything works but the origin I'm getting for my pass is not in the bottom left (my pass is bigger than the window) so I need to add a "strange_yoffset" variable on the y axis to fix it.   I'm sure I'm doing something wrong as I'm guessing at how to do things but it seems correct.

pass = Outputs.new
pass.height = 32*44    
pass.width = 32*80    
strange_yoffset = -32*22+16                         
pass.solids << [0, strange_yoffset, pass.width, pass.height, black]

Basically in the snipit above I want to make the entire pass black.  To cover it I needed to hunt around to find the origin .  In this case it was on the y axis a little more than half way up.

My questions are.  Am I allowed to change the size of passes?  Is this an intended/supported way to do things?   If so  should the origin reset itself or is there a way for me to reset the origin of the pass?
