Is there a way to break a big map into several smaller ?  
i know i can crop and export, then control + z … but maybe there is some way to make this more automatic  
because i would like to export like 100+ maps … and keep the big original for development.

I was thinking is possible to making a layer to identify my little maps, and then a script could export everything ?

This is definitely in the realm of problems where [making Tiled scriptable](https://github.com/bjorn/tiled/issues/949) would provide one possible approach to implementing this. It’s on the [Roadmap](https://github.com/bjorn/tiled/wiki/Roadmap) for Tiled 1.3, but it will still be a few months away.

In the meantime, you could code something yourself, either by modifying [Tiled source code](https://github.com/bjorn/tiled), or modifying [Tiled2Unity](https://github.com/Seanba/Tiled2Unity) (if you’re using that) or by coding a script in any other language that provides a writer for the TMX format (maybe try Python with [python-tmx](http://python-tmx.nongnu.org/)) to cut your map into pieces.
