RE: [Rails-devel] Hex Tilesets

[<wak...@ea...>]

I separated them on the notion that there's potential for non-standard colors and also, rather than several hundred  statements of "Color=foo" in the individual tile definitions, it's only a handful of statements at the TileSet level.

Unless there's a specific benefit I'm not seeing, why make more data entry work for ourselves than we really need to?

XMLBuddy considers your TileSet.xml invalid, and rightly so,
because there can be only one top-level tag in an XML file.

I don't think we really need a different tile set for each colour
(the colour will be a tile property).
So I propose to merge the <TileSet> tags into one.

The Map.xml files are not valid either: '&' characters
in private company names must be escaped to '&'
