Example Map Object Model
The following XML structure describes a simple Map Object that has been serialized. Usually you will not see or edit this structure, as the Modeller tool will take care of that.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Data>
<list id="model">
<list id="default">
<list id="shape">

</list>
</Data>
It is a flat ground tile of size 40x40 and height of 5 (tiles with no height are not allowed, as that would break collision detection).
Parameters of a Map Object
A Map Object has two components: the <tt>model</tt> part contains the 'physical' properties of the object (its extend in world space), while the <tt>sprite</tt> part contains its graphical representation (i.e. its looks). One placeable can consist of multiple models, each with its own sprite.
The <tt>model</tt> part of an entity is composed of one or more states that correspond to separate animations in the associated <tt>sprite</tt>. Each state is represented by a <tt>shape</tt>, which in turn is composed of one or more <tt>cube</tt>s. These are defined by the position of their 8 corner points (in pixels), relative to the bottom left corner of the corresponding animation.
All cubes of all entities together, placed inside a bounding box, define the length (extension along the x axis), width (extension along the y axis) and height (extension along the z axis) of the map object.
<!-- It should be noted that it is possible to use "degenerated" cubes, where one or more points may share the same coordinate. -->
