Is there a way to use both the color-coded and the normal tilemap? I’m trying to make a game where the enemies are placed in certain colored locations on the tilemap, but I want to be able to use more detailed tiles instead of having to limit myself to one tile per color (16 maximum tiles, less for enemy locations). ---

You can’t use both at the same time, but you can place enemies/objects on specific locations using the normal tilemap! Essentially, you create a custom tile for your enemy, loop over each one, and manually place the sprite on top. Then you can replace the tile with another one to hide it: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/2X/5/5391a98bc4dd0e854e3a427b7a52fd7f3d624cf4.png) Example code: [https://makecode.com/\_WJeAz4ew1LJY](https://makecode.com/_WJeAz4ew1LJY) ---

Aha! Thank you, that helps a lot.
