I have figured out how to do a pretty seamless transition between the dungeon and mine tilesets. The trick is to use a void tile to clear the area of excess walls and use wall, floor and ceiling entities to build the area.

You can even do multi level transitions. Here is an example from a 2 tile high cave to a 1 tile high dungeon

Which things do you define in the editor and which things do you do via script?

I did what you see in the screenshots entirely in the editor without any scripting.

OK. I guess I am confused then. A square can only have one tile in it so first you lay a void tile in a square, then you lay another tile and this new tile behaves differently by the fact that you had placed a void tile there first?

The void tile is just a empty blank pitch black floor. Then you add things like mine_floor_01 , mine_ceiling_01 for the floor and ceiling and the correct walls to match up with the other tiles around it.

This is awesome, thanks for sharing! Any chance you have figured out a good way to transition the Beach and Forest area's? One thing I noticed is that the forest wall and beach walls don't want to go together... Been trying to work around that myself at the moment.

This is the thread I've been looking for and didn't even know it. Thanks for sharing, will be using this technique.

Strangely, i tried with mine_wall_01_1 and i obtain a weird thing but with castle_wall_01_3 it works perfectly. Any idea ?

Because mine_wall_01 is a weird thing. It doesn't act like other walls. If you put it on the east edge of a tile, it'll make a wall that extends from the center of the tile to the east to the center of its own tile.

What tile must i use to make mine wall like the example of the first post ?
