Features

You can

• open any Tiled map (*.tmx file),

• pan the map (drag with left mouse button pressed, this is working thanks to standard TCastle2DNavigation),

• zoom (use mouse wheel, this is working thanks to standard TCastle2DNavigation).

Our data subdirectory contains a number of Tiled maps. You can also go ahead and download Tiled, free map editor to edit these maps or create new ones.

Note about using TCastleTiledMap in a viewport:

• It works most sensible in orthographic view with camera direction along Z. (This is our default 2D camera.) Otherwise the distance in Z between each layer may be visible.
