New in Tiled 1.1.0 (Jan 4, 2018)
- This release got a little out of hand. After reaching the 1.0 milestone, I really wanted to make smaller incremental updates. For several reasons, not the least our successful participation in the Google Summer of Code, the amount of changes in this release is huge! Below I’ll try to highlight some of the most significant ones.
- Mapping Without Boundaries:
- When you start a new map, you may not know in advance how large it will need to be. Of course, that’s why we had the Resize Map action. Now though, you can just select “Infinite” in the New Map dialog. This is possible, because tile layers now only allocate memory for the parts you’re actually using. All the tools have been adjusted to work on infinite maps.
- On large maps, zooming in and out is an efficient way of navigating. From now on the wheel zooms by default, without the need to hold Control.
- Wang Tiles:
- Long ago, Hao Wang introduced the concept of Wang tiles. A Wang tile has a color associated with each of its four sides, such that in a set of Wang tiles those colors determine which side fits to which other sides. While mathematically interesting, we use this concept to automate certain editing operations, like drawing of roads and advanced random filling.
- The existing Terrain Brush already provided similar features, but the Wang tiles take the functionality a little further. When you define the colors of your tile, you can choose to work with either the corners or the sides (or both). This makes Wang tiles suitable for roads and fences. In addition, all tile painting tools now have a Wang fill- mode, which is like the random mode but takes into account the sides of the tiles.
- On the other hand, this feature is still new and the Wang Brush is not yet as convenient as it could. Your feedback is welcome!
- Object Templates:
- If your game is like most games, then your maps are filled with repeating objects. Usually directly placing tiles from a tileset works fine, but sometimes the objects carry a lot of custom properties or they may have specific polygon shapes, such that your workflow may include a lot of copy/pasting. And then what if later on you want to change a property in all those copies? For this use-case, Tiled now supports object templates.
- An object template is stored in its own file and each instance of that template on a map just refers to it. Instances can override properties of the template, at which point that aspect is no longer affected by changes to the template. Templates can be edited in a dedicated window in the Templates view.
- Related to objects, a new point object type was added that is different from all other types in that it can’t be rotated or resized. This is useful for marking locations.
- Context Sensitive Toolbar:
- Most tools have additional options that are not immediately obvious. To help with this, a context-sensitive tool bar was introduced that can display tool-specific options and actions. It is currently implemented for the tile painting and selection tools, hosting the drawing modes, stamp transformation actions and selection operations.
- The left version is shown when the new Shape Fill tool is selected, which provides a quick way to fill rectangles or ellipses. Noteworthy is also that you can now capture a stamp from the map while using any of the tile painting tools.
- New Exporting Options:
- Tilesets can now be exported as well, which allows them to be saved in Lua format.
- The GameMaker: Studio 1.4 export was improved. It is now possible to set the scale, origin and creation code for instances. Also views can now be defined in Tiled. Finally the default depth for tile layers now matches the default of GameMaker.
- Support was added for the tBIN map format, which simplifies the workflow of modding Stardew Valley maps.
- Major Updates to the Manual:
- The last thing I’ll mention here is not a change to Tiled, but regards the User Manual. Since the last release, the manual has transitioned to Read the Docs, was translated from Markdown to reStructuredText (now using Sphinx) and was vastly expanded.
- As you may have already noticed many of the links in this post went to the manual. Apart from pages covering all the new features, new sections have also been added about editing tilesets, the user preferences, the export formats and about writing Python import/export scripts. Also the pages about Automapping and the JSON format have been ported over from the wiki.
- Going forward, we’ll host multiple versions of the manual, so that you’re not confused by features developed for Tiled 1.2 while using 1.1. Read the Docs also makes it easy to host translations of the manual. You can help translate the manual (and Tiled itself) on Weblate. But that’s quite a lot of text to translate!
