Create empty tilemap from used tileset?

N00b question; I want to use the same tileset for two different tilmaps without loading in a new tileset-image. When I drag the tileset i have used for the level layout out in the editor, the level appears. I want a blank tilemap, so I can make multiple layers etc. Is this possible? And how??

When you add new instances of an object, Construct copies everything from the first instance of this object in the project. So if your first instance of tilemap has some map drawn on it, then all other instances will be created with this map.

You can simply erase all tiles. Select a large area, then switch to eraser tool and clear the whole tilemap.

And this will not affect the first tilemap??

No. That's what an instance is. It's the same object but not the same instance. Think two apples, both are the same object but you can eat one without eating the other.

Great. Thanks! :) Then'll take on the destruction of my level with confidence!
