PlayMapper V0.46 (Alpha)



  Here's the current WIP alpha of Play Mapper.   This version corrects some bugs (delete layer + incorrect map sizes issues)  from the previous edition, and includes the more importing features, such as Import Level As Layer.      Which means V0.37  includes  the core functionality I was aiming for in this update   The main thing missing really is a good tweak of  the cosmetics, .


  Note:  While functional,  it hasn't really been tested in real world scenarios.  So I'd expect some bugs (big & small) , but we won't know until you get road testing it !  - If you don't,  we'll never know !  


Features

  * Basic tools (Tile,Line,Box,Circle,Brush)
  * Block import
  * Multi tile Selection
  * Multi Layer Support
  * Layer Tools (Resize/Scrolling)
  * Brushes
  * Context driven pop up menus (right click)
  * Load/Save Format (hunk based.)
  * Undo support (100 or so levels)
  * Mini Map Preview / Overview
  * Import Level (packs) as Brushes
  * Import Level (packs) as Layers
  * Animation Support
  * Map Conversion



Future (only if there's demand)

  * optimize layers
  * Block Export (combine, stream/optimize)
