Tilelayer functions

Elk is right, this needs to happen. Unixmad, you need to keep the updates to this game coming. I've lost all hope for this game until YOU can make some changes. If you're no longer capable, there's people who are.

Yes, there are people who can actually alter the engine... I think

This is based on never seeing the code or design documents for the engine. However I would speculate that the lack of updates may possibly stem from from poor design.

Doesn't Graal use Torque2D or Torque3D for it's scripting engine..? I know Graal 3D definitely did and I know theres stuff on graal.net about it. I personally have used, and still installed, a copy of Torque2D which they no longer require a license to use the program. However I believe there is limitations to "free" such as if you earn money off your game over a certain point. I am pretty sure, then again it could also be unity I am thinking of for the fee thing. Only I think Graal would be a heavily modified version of Torque then. It a lot easier then you think to add new scripting commands to torquescpript. The trick is how you handle the c++ variables from the torquescpript variables and such.

Tile layer functions would be pretty cool. It's odd that so many features would not exist in 2015.. decades after other games first started doing them.

It could be a huge mess and that's the reason why updates are very slow. Emphasis on the "could".
