How do I paint tiles without objects?

Hello, how can paint like tiles without using a tilemap object or a sprite object?, i believe this would consume too many resources for a mobile game.

So, I think you could do if there is a way to paste an image to another image, without use a sprite object for this.

I mean it would be better to use the typical action of "paste" used in any image editor.

But I think that does not exist in construct.

I'm wrong?.

How could then paint the tiles without any object type?.

It's possible?.

I don't think using tilemap for this would use to many resources..

What I have been able to prove is that a tilemap object consumes more resources than a sprite object.

Ok, I'll try with tilemap object.
