# Top-down Tiles — the square map view
|
||||
|
||||
Top-down Tiles draws tile maps straight from above, on a square grid, in the style of classic 2D RPGs. It is one of two map views for the shared Tile Rendering engine; the other is Isometric Tiles. RPG Plus uses this view.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## What changes and what does not
|
||||
|
||||
This mod only decides **how a map cell becomes pixels on screen**: each cell is a square of the tileset's tile size, and a raised object is drawn higher on screen without changing its cell.
|
||||
|
||||
Everything else is owned by other mods and does not change when you switch views:
|
||||
|
||||
- **the map and its content** — tiles, buildings, people, chests — come from content mods (for example RPG Demo and Village Pack);
|
||||
- **walking, collisions, events, battles and saves** belong to the RPG mod and use the same grid in both views;
|
||||
- **drawing, lighting and time of day** are done by Tile Rendering.
|
||||
|
||||
The arrow keys and WASD move along the screen's up, down, left and right.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Turn it on
|
||||
|
||||
In the game's scheme (**Mods & Collections → Collections → the game → Edit scheme**), include this mod and set **Map projection** to **Top-down**. The value of the `tile.renderer` setting is `topdown`:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
"settings": { "tile.renderer": "topdown" }
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
For a single run, add `--tile-renderer=topdown` to the command line. If a game includes only this renderer and leaves the setting empty, it is used automatically.
|
||||
|
||||
## If something goes wrong
|
||||
|
||||
1. **The map is empty.** The game's **Map projection** asks for a renderer that is not included; include this mod or choose another projection.
