Description of the Feature:
Code for Implementation:
I am not a programmer, and so could not begin to imagine how one would go about programing this undoubtedly complex feature into the engine. However, I would think Yanflys Plugin might be a decent place to start.
Mockups:
I don't think I can really "show" how this would work...its basically parallax mapping, only without having to build the map in an exterior editor. You would simply be able to click the b-e tile(s) you need, and place it on the map anywhere of grid, and you can reselect it and move it around as needed.
Why is this feature good?
This feature is great because of the following:
Possible issues with this feature?
Issues that might arise from this feature:
Note: I just wanted to also say, I think yanflys plugins, including the one I mentioned, are really awesome. Its awesome that plugins can effect the engine that way, however, there are things I don't like about it. I don't like having to make a "trillion" individual "doodads", to shuffle through all those menus to make a map. And the way I'm think, if a plugin can do that...why not just build it into the engine (I know, "says the non-programmer"...)? No one would need Tiled, or to make a map in Gimp/Photoshop, which is resource hungry anyway. To be sure, I am doubtful this will make it into the engine, but I wanted to at least put it out there.
- I would like to humbly propose that a feature similar to Yanflys Doodads Plugin be implemented into the engine.

Why is this feature good?
This feature is great because of the following:
- It would make building more organic looking maps even easier. It would have the freedom provided by Yanflys plugin of being able to place tiles free of the grid, with none of the finicky shuffling through windows, or having to make individual "doodads" files.
- Simply click the tile(s) in the tile pallet, and click and place it on the map, and move it as needed.
- It would (should) be more resource friendly on a project.
Possible issues with this feature?
Issues that might arise from this feature:
- I suppose there might be some conflict with the way layers work, right now in the engine as it stands.

That is ok. I know the rest of the Actor 3 Set...
so hopefully tomorrow i get to go home from the hospital i've been here for 5 days already and it's driving me mad. I miss my family like crazy but at least I get to use my own toiletries and my own clothes. My mom is coming to visit soon i can't wait to see her cause i miss her the most. 
Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design...
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
