## Phaser. TilemapParser

#### new TilemapParser()

  Phaser.TilemapParser parses data objects from Phaser.Loader that need more preparation before they can be inserted into a Tilemap.

  Source - tilemap/TilemapParser.js, line 13

### Members

#### <static, constant> INSERT_NULL :boolean

  When scanning the Tiled map data the TilemapParser can either insert a null value (true) or
  a Phaser.Tile instance with an index of -1 (false, the default). Depending on your game type
  depends how this should be configured. If you've a large sparsely populated map and the tile
  data doesn't need to change then setting this value to `true` will help with memory consumption.
  However if your map is small, or you need to update the tiles (perhaps the map dynamically changes
  during the game) then leave the default value set.
