If you can wait until tomorrow I may find the time to take a look. I have some map/level editors I made myself, so we’ll probably be able to fix it together. 🙂

By the way, depending on how the input for your game is formatted, you could use already existing map editors, like MapWin, which can load a tile set, let you edit the map and export it as an array.

Hey… I recognize that tutorial…  
To be honest, I don’t know if it works with the latest version of Flash, I haven’t actually looked at any of that code in a long time… It might be best to take it off the site altogether… ☹

LOL.  
By the way, I didn’t have the time, as you probably already noticed… 🙂
