Sequential Drawing Mode

Sitting comfortably? Good.

Sequential drawing mode was added to aid in the use of imported bitmaps when editing maps. When the sequential drawing mode is selected then drawing either lines, circles, ellipses or rectangles will start off from the currently selected tile, and then use the next tile and so on.

While it is probably worse than useless for circles and ellipses (and moderately useful for lines), it's real power is when drawing filled rectangles.

When used in this mode imported bitmaps (which have been imported in 8x8 sized chunks can be easily drawn). Note that when drawing rectangles (and this only applies to rectangles) the direction the rectangle is dragged alters the order of the tiles used. This means that if you set the horizontal or vertical flips then the imported bitmap will still appear right.

The easiest thing to do is try it out! It's a lot easier to use than explain.
