It’s pretty hard but you’d need to save the data of every tile in a double array, and then change it everytime you save a tile. It’s pretty complex, so I’d recommend you get @WoofWoof .

The thing about that is:  
You COULD spend hours coding one yourself…  
OR, you could ask people to just edit your project and use the makecode tilemap editor.

Y’all will be interested in the things happening in this topic:

I have seen this already being done but i only almost got it working. I wanted to ask what i could try among, trying to save the information onto the settings by bits, use the existing array with tile images for loading so that the image array can be a number, o…

@richard has gifted me some code for saving tilemaps in buffers (something I am already doing in a not-so-secret project) so I’ll probably add this to my tilemapGen extension and then y’all will be able to use it.
