tilemap editor

[ezpuzz]

a user friendly way to describe tiles in a tileset could allow anyone to share their tiles

• need to name each tile (could use default names)
• need a way to specify possible tiles that could connect
• need to specify max size of connected tiles (for multitile sprites like statues or buildings or whatever)

oh also change relative frequency of particular tiles by level
e.g. as you get deeper more water features or more computer labs or whatever

^ could also work to gate some tiles to only appear later in story (demon altar wouldn't be on first floor for example)

[ezpuzz]

some tiles should be guaranteed to appear by or on a certain level

editor allows marking east and southern connectors for each tile. (should add north and west but would be hard to give visual feedback)

need to add walkableness and layering information for each tile

[ezpuzz]

for naming tiles i am considering that maybe an enum category is better and can encode behaviors of tile that way...

floor may not always be walkable though...
