DESCRIPTIONS
Previously known as TMXLoader. TMXL Map Toolkit has been renamed the pure. The tmx-file-loading component of this mod is now included in SMAPI (3.2+).
Image Layers for Buildables
To use Image layers, their names must end with “UNIQUEID,” such as “MyLayer-UNIQUEID,” except on indoor maps.
Buildables Coloring
To enable coloring, the Image Layer must have two properties: “Color,” which holds a default RGBA value such as “255 255 255 255” for white, and “ColorId,” which can be anything. Layers with the same “ColorId” property will be colored in the same way.
Buildables
By pressing F2, you can build or remove buildables (can be changed in the config file)
To remove the last Buildable from the map, press BACKSPACE while the menu is open.
Regularly constructible Map changes:

Additional Features:
Drawing more than just the standart layers:
Add the property Draw/DrawAbove or DrawBefore to the layer you want to see drawn in the game, the value needs to be the layer that is it drawn after/before, for exp. Back if you want another Back-Layer.
Added TileActions (1.0.1), used either in the Action or TouchAction Property.
And since 1.1.0 you can also use the map property “EntryAction” which will be triggered whenever the player enters the map.
- Say YourText
Same as Message used to work but without the ” “
Say Dwarvish YourText
Same as Say but shows the text in dwarvish if the player doesn’t have the translation guide. - SwitchLayers Layer1:Layer2
Switches two layers, even layers that aren’t actually drawn.
SwitchLayers Layer1:Layer2:14:17
Switches only the specified Tile between layers x:y - SwichLayers Layer1:Layer2:1–5:5–7
Switches the specified Area between layers x1-x2:y1-y2
SwitchLayers Actions can be combined by just writting them one after the other exp:
SwitchLayers Buildings:BuildingsOpen:4:6-9 Buildings:BuildingsOpen:9:5 Front:FrontOpen:4:6-9 AlwaysFront:AlwaysFrontOpen:4:6-9 - Lock 1 380
Invokes a TileAction if the Active object is of the specified index Lock amount index
Requires further properties on the same tile:
Success Action triggered when using the right object in at least the right amount
Failure Action triggerd when using the wrong object or not enough
Default Action triggered when holding no object
(New in 1.1.0)
Lua YourFolderName YourFunction
Invokes a function from any of your lua scripts
Lua functions must take three paramters: location, tileposition & layerid
Lua Examples
Spoiler
pc = false
function startPC(location, tilepos, layer)
if pc then
Game1.playSound(“coin”)
TMX.getTile(location,”Front”,36, 12).TileIndex = 991
pc = false
else
Game1.playSound(“stardrop”)
TMX.getTile(location,”Front”,36, 12).TileIndex = 1153
pc = true
end
end
Furthermore, by adding the following properties to the same Tile, each Action (and TouchAction) can be made conditional:
Condition A condition that can be either an event condition (Event preconditions) or, if prefixed by PC, a player condition (but not mixed yet)
If the condition is not met, a fallback action is triggered (optional)
CatPerson, isMale, exhausted, hasGreenhouse, hasRustyKey, hasSkullKey, hasUnlockedSkullDoor, hasDarkTalisman, hasMagicInk, running, usingTool, usingSlingshot, bathingClothes, stardewHero, hasClubCard, canUnderstandDwarves are currently supported player conditions.
Conditions and the Participant
Conditions can be inverted by prefixing them with NOT.
Actions are still limited, but they will be expanded. If you require a specific TileAction, please contact me on the SMAPI Discord (@Routine).
SMAPI Mods can add their own Tileactions using PyTK:
using PyTK.Types;
TileAction Say = new TileAction(“Say”, sayAction).register();
Known Bugs
The Draw/DrawBefore/DrawAbove commands do not always work with the Front layer.
SMAPI warns that uninstalling this mod “may corrupt your save files or render them unusable.”
This is due to the fact that TMXL Map Toolkit accesses properties that COULD be used to change the serializer in this manner, but does not do so.
So, contrary to what the warning implies, your save files will not be corrupted or rendered unusable as a result of using or uninstalling this TMXL Map Toolkit mod.
