MAP_EDITOR
This is where you can place your game art to create larger art. You will mostly use this map area to create backgrounds for your games. You can use one sprite from your spritesheet many times in the map. So it is a good idea to create certain sprites that are drawn like tile patterns that look nice when you put many of them next to each other. In fact, we use the word "tile" to refer to a single 8x8 sprite.
To get started, first click on a sprite or "tile" from your sprite sheet, then click anywhere in the map canvas above. You can also click and drag to place many of these tiles down on the map.
You have the same tools here as you do in the Sprite Editor:
