One thing I've always wanted in maped is the ability
to create a 3x3 tile brush (or 2x2 or whatever)
so that more than 1 tile can be painted in 1 stroke.

cheers

I know, I really wish it had a feature like that myself.
For those not in-the-know, hes asking for a feature like this:

instead of having 16 pixels to work on...
You get 4 tiles placed in a 32*32 square so you can draw on them all. That way making tiles that are connected large items (like a fireplace, bushes, big rocks, etc) you wouldn't have to constantly flip from tile to tile aligning edge pixels.

What i mean is a larger brush. lets say a 3x3 area
each of the 9 tiles in the brush could have a different tile associated with it.

That way we can draw a whole fountain (let's say)
with 1 click. Instead of having to go back to the tiles to pick the next fountain section.

Hopefully i'm not too stoned to make sense right now :)

He doesn't mean just copying tiles and placing them everywhere... He means editing 4 tiles in the vsp, not in the map.

You'll have to draw the orignal 3x3 square first on the map, and then copy it using the method in my first reply.

TheGerf, not just any gerf.

perhaps a possible solution would be to have variable
tile sizes within a tileset. of course i'm sure this would present more problems for the designer..
uh, hm. with variable tile sizes, perhaps you could import an image - a length of paved street 64x256 pixels, for example - and save it as one tile. then you could select it and plunk it down whole on the map , without having to rebuild it with individual 16x16 tiles each time you wanted to reuse the image.
