[feature request] Tilemaps state as index

It would be nice if we didn't have to make a new condition to set the state of a tile each time.

If it could set the state as an index... that would be great.

0=0

1=90

2=180 you get the idea

Yes, please.

Bump. Ashley

also, I just start making my level editor and noticed that there is no way to return the tile state from tilemap as expression

Edited

You can already access the tile state using the "Compare tile state at" condition.

Yeah, but it's not helpfull if you want to fill an array with tiles and their states

You need to make 8 event to get tilestates from each tile while retrieving data from Tilemap to Array and then make another 8 reversed events to send back data from array to Tilemap.

i think I made my first statement not complete so let me rephrase that "there is no way to return the tile state from tilemap as expression"

Like simple example: set variable to Tilemap.TileStateAt(TileX, TileY)

You could easily wrap those 8 events in a function though, right?

Not really, because you can't properly set a function parameter to proper tilestate.

It's not a big issue or anything, it's just annoying that I need to make all of that while I could make just one event instead.

It's much easier to work with the json, isn't it?
