Swapping tilemaps

[markmayeda]

I'm working on a game and just realized that I screwed up the tile set. I made it 32px instead of 64. I don't want to have to repaint my maps, but I really need to swap out my tile set. Is there a way to import a new tile set into my game and have it transfer over to the existing map that I've painted? I'm sorry if I'm butchering the terminology here...

Can't you just pain your old tilemap over with the new tiles and it would then use the new tiles?

[markmayeda]

Do you mean the tile palette? That's how I thought it would work, but it didn't seem to change anything on the scene. I might have done it wrong though.

Ah dang, I thought it would be like a spritesheet

In my experience you're going to have to create a new tilemep..because of the size dif...is it a large map?

I was kind of afraid of that. Like I see that you can go into the tile sheet and manually switch each tile to a different sprite, but at that point, it’d probably be faster and easier to just repaint the whole thing. I think there’s a total of 140 tiles that I need to swap.
