[Big-Byte]

+1 for using Delphi Still my favourite language although its been some years since I last used it ( mainly c# dev now )

What I would be interested in if it can save the map data and tiles out in a basic plain text format so I could use the data to quicky load a map into my game (to be specific I want to recreate the first level of either battle squadron or r-type)

something like:

// Map
//Screen 10 tiles wide, 4 tiles high
0,0,0,0,1,2,4,7,3,1
1,4,6,8,3,2,0,0,1,0
0,0,0,0,0,2,5,8,1,7
9,3,1,2,0,0,0,0,0,0

etc..

then the tiles would be saved as a bitmap in a given order.
