All the real mappers use custom tools they programmed themselves.*
*citation needed

You cannot. You can only overwrite 300x300 tile chunks.

I am trying to crush dreams here.
To be fair, those were literally released after the question was asked. My answer would have been correct for most of this games history.

In fact it is entirely possible! I was investigating this possibility just a few months ago. The fence tools are written in LUA, so you should in theory be able to edit them. I don't recall the exact file structure, but just take a look through the tiled files. I suggest you get an IDE like VS Code. It can be a bit intimidating without syntax highlighting.

You can't make any sort of good ramp. Maybe with a bunch of custom tiles & some sort of teleport mod?
I suggest building rural Michigan style highways. -
No.
Recreate them.

I am prepared to be amazed.
But primed for disappointment.

It's totally possible!
As you can see in the following excerpt from a .TMX map file, it's just a simple* XML structure.
Although you might need to get skilled at running the base64 zlib decompression algorithm in your head. Very* achievable*

The answer is: You can't.
The Devs do not provide the raw map files. The map tools allow you to create entirely new maps, or overwrite 300x300 tile chunks of the existing map.
-
The game is limited to like 7 stories at most.
-
You do not.
You can only completely replace an entire cell.
-
You fool!
Soon has now been pushed back to the 2050's!

Counterpoint:
The game is perfect in every way.
Also you can turn off zombie respawn in sandbox settings.

What folder is the "Tiles folder that I downloaded"? Is that some folder of the game? Which one? The only "2x" folders in PZ's folder are subfolders of some "fonts" folders which I expect are something different.
TileZed does not have any "Tiles" or "2x" subfolders either.
The link at the very top of this page that says "Tileset Images"

Any idea how to add the new roads to it ( the ones that curve to the side)
You do not.
Devs have not yet released those tilesets,
-
I think there might be a way to create room objects the same way you create foraging zone objects.
-
I see a .getLookAngleRadians()
perhaps there is also a .setLookAngleRadians?

Don't forget to take clumsy. That makes footsteps louder.
And you could set up an auto-hotkey program to constantly press the Q button.

Getting rather a lot now.
Idea: sort through room definitions.
Each definition will be an accordion. When opened it is filled with a grid of the icons for every item that can spawn in it. The background behind the item scaled from red to green based on how likely the item is to spawn.Allow filtering by item to show only the room definitions in which an item can spawn.
How do I make a radio tower?

I suggest taking a close look at the text files that define furniture & manually building the tower in there.
