although i am writing this in bas code
a native variant of val that can get if a string is a hexadecimal number or that reads a string as hexadecimal number would be nice.
especially with tile maps.

Does the job although I'm sure there is a faster variant:
function getHx(string$)
dim value[length(string$)]
for i = 0 to length(string$)-1
if(val(mid$(string$,i,1))=0) then
if not mid$(string$,i,1) = "0" then
for j = 10 to 15 step 1
if Hex$(j) = mid$(string$,i,1) then
value[i] = j
end if
next
else
value[i] = val(mid$(string$,i,1))
end if
else
value[i] =val( mid$(string$,i,1))
end if
next
integer = 0
outcome = 0
for i = 0 to arraysize(value,1)-1
j = 0
integer = value[i]
if (i <> arraysize(Value,1)-1) then
while(arraysize(Value,1)-1 -i -j > 0)
integer = integer*16
j = j +1
wend
outcome = outcome + integer
else
outcome = outcome + integer
end if
j=0
next
return outcome
end function

I think this is probably the best way to accomplish what you needed. I may implement a native function for this eventually but it I just want to get the core features I have been working on done before I tackle anything else.
