creating a new tile set:

1. add a new folder in gfx
2. create a tile\_config.json file in your new folder, that lists all items/furniture/monsters/vehicles parts that your tile set supports.
3. create a tileset.txt file that describes the name and paths for your tiles.
4. create one or more .png files with your new tiles, in the order you list in the tile\_config.json.

adding an existing tile set to your game:

1. copy it into the gfx folder
2. go into options and select it

monster and vehicle spawn

1. in the location json in data/json/mapgen/ , put the monsters you want to spawn in place\_monsters and the vehicles in place\_vehicles. see public\_works.json for a good example.
