# TileSets

## Standard Format

The standard save format of the library is a row of 16 tiles, if there is a variant, placed directly below the
corresponding position.

Ideally you should provide sprites with transparency channels.

## Packed Format

## Questions and Answers

### Q: Is the save format too wasteful?

Yes, this resource format will have a lot of useless transparent pixels.

But this is just a lossless resource format for editor, it will compile into a compact format in game.

And thanks to the png compression algorithm, it doesn't take up too much extra disk space

### Q: How about import 3-tiles or 4-tiles?

The library does not (and will not) support this, you must You have to manually decompose into 2-tiles.

### Q: NavMeshes, Layers?

This library is only for resource management, please
use [TileMap](https://github.com/oovm/Tilemap/tree/dev/projects/tilemap) for related functions.
