A significant part of my work those past two months has mostly been about reimplementing most of the already existing TileSet features, while introducing more flexibility to it. Most of TileSet's systems (rendering, collisions, physics, navigation, …) are now using a concept of "layers" (this might be renamed). Navigation.

To simplify things with the TileSet setup (removing the need to specify manually the atlases, autotiles or single tiles in a texture), you now have to organize your textures into fixed-size grids. Basically, this means that all source textures are now considered as atlases. Those tiles then won't be selectable to be painted.

In this third mode, I implemented a dedicated editor for tile shapes (collision shapes, occluders, naviagation shapes). This allows setting up tile collisions in a very fast way: Since my previous implementation of panning was not working great in the atlas editor, I reworked it a little bit. x isometric tiles demo to 4.0: What's next.
