Maybe I’m being dumb, but I’m working on a tileset that is 20x18 tiles, each with 8x8 resolution, thus being 160x144 pixels in total, but when I go to export it as an image it exports as something mad like 840x792, instead of the 160x144, is there a way to prevent that?

Export as Image exports _the map_ as an image, not the tileset. There is no “Export as Image” for tilesets, since Tiled has no features for editing the image data of those.

If I misunderstood and you’re exporting the map: make sure “Use current zoom level” is unchecked, perhaps it’s exporting zoomed in?
