Another Map Editor

[zparticle]

I've built a another simple scrolling tile map editor, the source is included as well as a few samples and html docs. Both MacOS X and Windows executables are included in the zip. Eventually I'll have a Linux version as well.

This is in the Off Topic section because it isn't written in Java but the file format is documented and I thought it might be usefull to someone here.

The survivor map editor is probably going to be released in the near future as an extensible general-purpose game-map editor.

I say this because we needed a BIG map editor at work recently, and the survivor one was easy to hand so I've been going through fixing bugs and modularising it so it can handle the proprietary map formats we're using.

Just an FYI.
