TMX Maps Support for Starling Framework

=======================================

Overview

--------

This extension is based on the one created by [Shaun Mitchell](http://wiki.starling-framework.org/extensions/tmx_loader), and allows a starling game to load and display a TMX Tilemap created using [Tiled](http://mapeditor.org)

The major contributions include:

  * Compatible with Starling v1.3

  * Target is Tiled 0.9.0

  * Ability to use tilesets with margins and spacing

  * Improved performance by using flattened sprites

  * Support for properties

  * Support for Objects and Objectgroups

  * more to come...

This extension is still under development. If you want to contribute, feel free to help out.

**Known issues:**

  * Can't load tilemaps that use a TSX tileset

Examples

--------

There is an example project included with the extension. Here's one though:

Loading your tilemap using embedded assets and displaying it:

```actionscript

[Embed(source="../../../../assets/example.tmx", mimeType="application/octet-stream")]

private static var exampleTMX:Class;

 	

[Embed(source = "../../../../assets/tmw_desert_spacing.png")]

private static var exampleTileSet:Class;

// (...)

var mapXML:XML = XML(new exampleTMX());

var tilesets:Vector. = new Vector.();

tilesets.push(Bitmap(new exampleTileSet()));

			

var mapTMX:TMXTileMap = TMXTileMap.createMap(mapXML, tilesets);

			

for (var i:int = 0; i < mapTMX.layers.length; i++) 

{

    addChild(mapTMX.layers[i].layerSprite);

}

```
