# Enchanced TileMap editor for Godot 3.5x
[](README.md)
[](README.ru.md)
Hello everyone Godot users! I'm developing an alternative tile map editor for the Godot engine v3.5+.
It is a very early alpha version. I will be glad to your wishes and suggestions for its improvement!
## Features:
- Rectangular selection, continuous selection, combination of selections.
- Integrated powerful tile palette
- Drawing with patterns
- Undo-Redo support
- Saving patterns to the bottom panel, tileset metadata (not yet), or copying to plain text
- Rotation and flipping patterns at all possible angles with tiles in their cells and without them (and powerful set of keyboard shortcuts for it)
- 3 auto-tilers: Classic, Improved and Terrain (their algorithms are implemented, but not integrated yet)

When you select a `TileMap` instance in the scene tree, the bottom panel "Tile Map" appears, which contains tools and sub-palettes.
## Tools
### Selection
- __Rectangular Selection__ - everyone's favorite rectangular selection))
- __Continous Selection__ (Magic Wand) - so far not a very useful tool. But smart pattern selection will be added later
You can combine selections by `Shift` (union), `Ctrl+Shift` (intersection) and `Alt+Shift` (subtraction)
Also you can copy selection to clipboard as serialized pattern. In this case, the pattern will be immediately ready for drawing in all tools.
You can draw it on your `TileMap`, or paste it into "Patterns" subpalette or or in any other place as JSON text.
### Drawing
- __Pattern Brush__ - just a brush. But it switches to the Line when `Ctrl` is pressed and the Rectangle when `Ctrl+Shift` is pressed.
- __Pattern Line__ - draws line. Behaves differently for a single tile and a complex pattern on offsetted maps. A single tile forms a continuous line, as in Godot 4
- __Pattern Rectangle__ - well known rectangle)
- __Pattern bucket fill__ - allow continous filling and offset pattern origin by moving mouse with holding LMB
- __Tile Picker__ (not implemented yet)
- __Eraser__ - just an eraser
- __Random Tiles__ - modifier with Scattering option (not implemented yet)
- __Rotate pattern__ menu - allows rotate pattern at all possible angles for current `cell_half_offset`
- __Flip pattern__ menu - same as "Rotate" but for pattern mirroring

## "By Texture" tiles subpalette
Provides tiles layout on textures, how they are marked up in `TileSet`. Best choice to select patterns for rectangular maps.

## "Individual" tiles subpalette
Provides tiles layout on `TileMap` which have similar `mode` or `custom_cell_transform` and `cell_half_offset` as in current `TileMap`. It is convenient to choose patterns for non-rectangular maps on it.

## "Patterns" subpalette
This palette is for saving patterns copied from the map. It is already working, but visually it is not yet ready. Patterns can be pasted here using `Ctrl+V` shortcut.
Patterns can be pasted not only here, but anywhere as a regular JSON-text. You can exchange them immediately through any messenger!

## Autotiles
(algorithms are implemented, but not integrated yet)
## Personalization

You can choose drawing limits, grid and cells colors and grid fragments sizes.
