| Map Editor: Layers |
Using layers
| Map tiles can overlap. Use this interface to select which layer to draw tiles on. You can also press a number on the keyboard to select layers quickly. The ~ key selects layer 0.
| To increase the number of layers, click the + button. To reduce the number of layers, hold SHIFT and click the - button. Be careful when removing layers. It'll delete all tiles on that layer. Most games place the player in the map between layer 1 and 2. So tiles on layer 2 and above will overlap the player. You're not likely to need more than 3 layers, but it is possible to have up to 7. (It's a completely arbitrary limit)
