LOAD TILESET

The LOAD TILESET command allows you to load a tileset with the "Tiled TSX" file format. Offset and other parameters will be calculated automatically on the base of the file content.

The image will be converted into a way that can be efficiently drawn on the screen. It could be converted into indexed palette, and can be rescaled as well.

Since it is possible to load only one file of the same type at a time, it is necessary to be able to indicate an "alias" with which to exceed this limit. In this regard, there is also the AS syntax, which allows you to load the same file several times but with different names.
