This guide will provide you with information about using and making tilesets. |

==Using the Palette== |
|||
Under the objects tab of the '''Palette''' you will find 3 different tabs: '''Main''', '''All''' and '''Embedded''' |
|||
[[File:tabs.png|none|thumb]] |
|||
* The '''Main''' tab contains all of the tileset objects that are found in the main tileset |
|||
* The '''All''' tab contains all of the tileset objects found in the '''objects''' folder |
|||
* The '''Embedded''' tab contains all of the tileset objects found in the objects folder |
|||
=== Placing objects from the All tab === |
|||
To use the '''All''' tab you will need to have the [https://download1767.mediafire.com/1u5d7e34ri5g/uj2b2szy7eytyz3/Objects.zip '''objects'''] folder installed and the objects path of '''Miyamoto''' set to the location of it. |
|||
If set up correctly, this tab should show a list containing all of the tileset objects found inside the folder. |
|||
By selecting one of the objects on the list and placing it in the stage, the object will be added to the first available place found in one of the regular tilesets, thus also becoming available in the '''Embedded''' tab. |
|||
'''Important:''' After placing an object from the '''All''' tab, you shouldn't use the '''All''' tab again to place that same object as this might create a duplicate of that object. |
|||
This might result in tileset running out of space as there is a limited amount of 768 tiles. |
|||
=== Placing objects from the Embedded tab === |
|||
This tab shows all of the tileset objects throughout the 3 regular tilesets in the current area. |
|||
From here, you can simply select tileset objects and place them in he stage without decreasing the available space for tileset objects. |
|||
You can also import and export tileset objects from this tab. |
|||
Each object in the '''objects''' folder can be imported like this, though using the '''All''' tab is easier. |
|||
To import or export all objects you can simply use the buttons at the top and to export a singular object, you can right-click an object to make the option appear. |
|||
If you have ran out of space, you can remove unnecessary or duplicate objects in this tab by right-clicking them and pressing '''Delete'''. |
|||
If '''Miyamoto''' shows you an error, telling that the object can't get deleted because there are still instances of that object, simply right-click the object in the '''Embedded''' tab and press '''Delete instances'''. |
|||
Alternatively, you can directly replace the object you want to get rid of with the one you want to add by right-clicking that object and pressing '''Replace.''' |
|||
| ⚫ | |||
==Tile layers== |
|||
Under the objects tab of the '''Palette,''' Bellow the 3 tabs mentioned before, there is the option "'''Paint on layer:"''' |
|||
| ⚫ | |||
Tiles you place in the stage will be added on the layer this setting is set to. |
|||
| ⚫ | |||
Normally when you place multiple tiles on the same position, the last placed tile will overwrite the others, which is most noticable when the tile contains a lot of transparency. |
|||
Unlike sprites, tiles can only be placed on the grid. |
|||
If you want to place a tile directly in front or behind another tile you can do so by placing them on 2 different layers. |
|||
[[Category:Misc]] |
|||
Layer 0 goes in front the others and layer 2 behind. |
|||
[[File:layer comparison.png|alt=|none|thumb]] |
|||
Here you can see a comparison between having everything on a single layer (left) and using multiple layers (right). |

General information[edit | edit source]
Each Area of a level contains a main tileset and up to 3 "regular" tilesets.
Main tilesets (often referred to as Pa0) usually contain tiles with special functionality such as question and brick blocks, pipe collisions, donut lifts, animations and other less theme specific tiles.
You can change which main tileset is being used in the current Area in the Area Settings menu.
The other tilesets are used for the more regular tileset objects like ground and decorations.
Each tileset forms a 16x16 square of tiles, for a total of 256 tiles per tileset.
Every tile has a size of 60x60 pixels, giving the tileset a total tileset resolution of 960x960 pixels.
The 3 regular tilesets combined have a total space of 768 tiles. Together with the main tileset, the total amount of tiles available per Area is 1024 tiles.
In the Tilesets menu of Miyamoto is the option Use RGBA8. If this option is checked, tileset images won't be compressed. This prevents the image quality from decreasing, but increases the file size.
Unlike sprites, tiles can only be placed on the grid.
