Wednesday 18th

Not much progress today either, what with work and the gym and seeing another man about another dog. I tapped in the code I'd written yesterday, but it still took 20 minutes to get working - couldn't work out if it was due to fatigue or lame code (probably both!). Nevertheless, I now have Insert/Delete Column/Row functions in and working.

The next big task - which I'm hoping to tackle as soon as I get a decent chunk of time - is multiple maps. The actual inclusion of these maps and their various layers isn't a problem; what will take the time to implement and debug is the myriad variables to go with each map (width, height, tileset used, has the user made any changes since the last save or load, and so forth). With this in mind, it's likely I'll be tackling the file header information at the same time - plenty of potential for huge mishaps!
