Tiled support for Zircon [Experimental]

This is an experimental module for adding support for Tiled to Zircon.

How to Run

You'll need this fork of Zircon for this to work.

  1. Download Tiled.
  2. Create a map in Tiled. Don't check Embed in map when creating your tileset.
  3. Choose File > Export as... and save your map as a Tiled JSON file.
  4. Run org.hexworks.zirconx.examples.GameKt.main and pass in the absolute path to your JSON file as the first argument.

Supported

  • Basic tile layers
  • Multiple tile layers

Limitations

  • Most things that Tiled supports are unsupported.
  • Embedded tilesets
  • Layers with a type other than Tile layer
  • All layer properties, including visibility, opacity, tint, and offset
  • Most tileset properties, except grid height/width
  • Tile collisions
  • Tile/tileset/map metadata

Other TODOs

  • Switch over to kotlinx.serialization. This depends on being able to switch all of Tiled's outputs to JSON, which I think we can do. Switched over to naive Jackson object deserialization, which should be easy to replicate in JS implementations.
  • Support object layers. See #1.
  • Support tile collision data.
  • Implement the Right Way to handle asset loading instead of just loading files.
