    Could you provide another link for your image?  I don't want to have to download something just to have a look at it.  Photobucket is free, and you can do a direct link so that the image is visible in your post.

    It's not a download it's a direct link to the photo you don't have to download anything

    The original link is now working.  The first time I looked, there was no image, just a big download button, which I assumed was for the image.  My bad.  Apologies.

    For Photobucket, select the direct link, which is the second one on the list, click on it and it is automatically copied to your clipboard.  Then in your post click the little icon for image (if you hover your cursor over the menu bar, you will see which each one is) and in the box copy the link.  Your image will then appear here in your post, and people can see it straight away.  This makes helping you a lot quicker and easier.

    So now to turn to your query - if you want to lay a tile from a B-E tilesheet on top of another B-E tile, there is no alternative but to use an event, as there isn't another layer for the top one to go into. If it's a combination which you are going to use a lot, then you can combine them already in an image program like GIMP, or Photoshop and put the combined graphic onto your tile sheet.  But looking at what you're doing, it doesn't seem likely in this case that you would want to do that.

    With the amount of them map you should be fine if they are simply graphic events.
