I've been using it for a while now and just decided to back you on Patreon.\r\n\r\nHey @adsilcott, thanks a lot for supporting me!\r\n\r\nRight now I'm focusing on getting Tiled 0.17 out with the many improvements already made since 0.16 on the master branch, as well as solving issues related to working with external tilesets. I'll try to get to this afterwards. I've added it to the [Roadmap](https://github.com/bjorn/tiled/wiki/Roadmap) for Tiled 1.1, along with layer locking."}}
