Tilesets

Tilesets

Tilesets are the collections of tile images that maps draw from to build their terrain and structures. Each tileset bundles together a fixed set of slots — animated tiles, terraforming tiles that auto-shape against neighbors, structural tiles for walls and buildings, and flat tiles for everything else — along with the metadata that controls how each slot renders, animates, and interacts with the world.

A map references a tileset to define what its tiles look like; changing the tileset on a map swaps every tile through the same indices, which is what allows a single map layout to be re-skinned across multiple tilesets without re-painting it.


Note: A tileset has three Animated slots, three Terraforming slots, and three Structure slots, plus an unlimited number of Flat slots. Animated slots cycle through frames at runtime, Terraforming slots auto-shape against their neighbors to produce smooth edges between terrain types, Structure slots build vertical pieces like walls and buildings, and Flat slots are simple non-animated images for everything else.
