<p>Eight attributes (counting &quot;<span style="font-weight: bold;">type_height</span>&quot;) hold the informations about a tile.<BR>
These attributes are referred to as
- "<span style="font-weight: bold;">type_height</span>",
- "<span style="font-weight: bold;">m1</span>", "<span style="font-weight: bold;">m2</span>",
- "<span style="font-weight: bold;">m3</span>", "<span style="font-weight: bold;">m4</span>",
- "<span style="font-weight: bold;">m5</span>", "<span style="font-weight: bold;">m6</span>"
- and "<span style="font-weight: bold;">m7</span>".<BR>

+ &quot;<span style="font-weight: bold;">m1</span>&quot;, &quot;<span style="font-weight: bold;">m2</span>&quot;,
+ &quot;<span style="font-weight: bold;">m3</span>&quot;, &quot;<span style="font-weight: bold;">m4</span>&quot;,
+ &quot;<span style="font-weight: bold;">m5</span>&quot;, &quot;<span style="font-weight: bold;">m6</span>&quot;
+ and "<span style="font-weight: bold;">m7</span>".<br>
The most important value is the class of a tile, stored in the upper 4 bits
of the <span style="font-weight: bold;">type_height</span> attribute. The lower 4 bits are used to encode the height and
slope data.
</p>
- Special Attribute : <span style="font-weight: bold;">m6</span>. There are 4 bits of it that are used accross multiple tile classes<br>

110 is the count of standard houses. So above 110 means there is a new definition of at least one house</small>
