Map (gdx 1.12.1 API)

java.lang.Object
- com.badlogic.gdx.maps.Map

All Implemented Interfaces:

Disposable

Direct Known Subclasses:

TiledMap
```
public class Map
extends java.lang.Object
implements Disposable
```
A generic level map implementation.
A map has MapProperties which describe general attributes. Availability of properties depends on the type of map, e.g. what format is was loaded from etc.
A map has MapLayers. Map layers are ordered and indexed. A MapLayer contains MapObjects which represent things within the layer. Different types of MapObject are available, e.g. CircleMapObject, TextureMapObject, and so on.
A map can be rendered by a MapRenderer. A MapRenderer implementation may chose to only render specific MapObject or MapLayer types.
There are more specialized implementations of Map for specific use cases. e.g. the TiledMap class and its associated classes add functionality specifically for tile maps on top of the basic map functionality.
Maps must be disposed through a call to dispose() when no longer used.
