Map Editor

MD Engine includes a simple map editor that can be used to create or edit Tiled map files.

It has a small set of features, but it's best to use it to create the map as well as to link the tilesets.

Creating the Map​

To create a map inside Background & Maps view, click the button.

Create Map

This will create a new empty map that can be edited by clicking the button.

Edit Map

Linking Tilesets and Changing Tile Size​

Once on the Map Editor, we go to the Editor Sidebar, then select the desired tilesets, after that click the Use on Current Layer button to confirm.
Accept the pop-up, this will link the tilesets to the map.

After that step you can safely edit the tile size on the Navigator.
Select the desired tile size, and then click the Set Tile Size button to confirm. Accept the pop-up; this will set the tile size.

note

For detailed Tiled Map requirements and restrictions, see Using Tiled.
