Can we get more documentation and guides on how to use the tilemap feature? I’ve gone through all available documentation and help articles, and it’s extraordinarily difficult to understand / complex to use, almost every artist I have come across unanimously recommends using Tiled instead which is kinda sad to me because I really like Aseprite’s. But it’s just very convoluted and unclear, once you get the hang of it, it’s kinda nice. But it has a lot of unclear aspects to it. For example, you CANNOT resize a tilemap layer’s grid. I did it 4x, didn’t change. You can only do it upon starting a new tilemap layer.
yeah aseprite tileset features are not excelent, its good for prototyping the tileset, but t=hats about it, we dont have animated tiles, nor dynamic grids, nor even a good way to organize the tileset palette, you cant even import if i remmeber correcly, tohuhgt you can export for other programs, its just quite bare bones.
I agree. But even with how limited it is, it would be greatly beneficial to have at least some better documentation walking us through it than what we have currently.
Insted of ducumentation i think it should just be easier to use, the fact that you need to create a tileset, and them dont even know which one you are using is stupid, the creation is somewhat esoteric too.
Its not that its complex, its just confusing to use, all other tools have a mess around and figure it out sort of approach, or they are simply intuitive, insted of burying explanations into documentation the onbording should be made easier,
