Tidal 0.10.2: Tiled map loader

Post by markgo »

Tidal supports loading Tiled maps (tmx files). Originally a fork of Advanced Tiled Loader, the code has been mostly rewritten. Current library is compatible with Tiled 0.10.0.

I've been working on this for a couple of months now. This is a fork of Kadoba's libary. Unfortunately, I have not finished the documentation, and I'm pretty burned out from working on this. Nevertheless, it is stable as far as I can tell. There are numerous little changes so you'll have to watch out. Enjoy!

New features from the readme:
Chunk loading for cooperative multitasking
Much faster loading
Image layer support
Terrain support
Staggered map support
Extendable class system

Some changes/fixes from the top of my head:
fixed object drawing
fixed tile orientation and placement
removed saving
misc bugfixes

Demo:

Repository:

EDIT: The limitation on draw order still applies because of spritebatches. If one uses multiple tilesets per layer, there is no guarantee that a tile from one tileset will be drawn before a tile from another tileset. The workaround is to combine the tilesets into one image.

Yes. It seems you did it differently.

Forgot to post that Tidal was updated to 0.10.1. It's compatible with Tidal 0.10.0. It's the most stable version yet! Cheers

Tidal was updated 0.10.2, which fixed a naughty global reference bug.
