Beta2 : object name same as imagemap name

If a sprite's object name same identical to it's imagemap name, then T2D errors out saying the imagemap is invalid, the next time the level is loaded.

That's because image maps are objects just as sprites. so if you give your object the same name as the image map, it will overwrite the image map's entry in the name-object-lookup table.

The future incarnation of the Image Builder should prevent you from naming something the same as an already existing object
