ähm..... you can create new Maps since AM 1.50 (i think)....
Just use the Button with the star to create, and the one right of it (with the arrow to right) to insert the new Map in your ROM.

This is nearly impossible to do automatically, as it's contained in a level script.

- One option that enables with just one click, mapping 3x3, 2x3, 2x1, etc..
BLOCKS on the map.

I think you're referring to the grosser Block function of AdvanceMap.

the ability to put a tile set you have saved like in a dib then put it in the program as tiles , sorta like copy/paste tiles lol

Click to expand...

This works, but not as a .dib file as this will discard lots of necessary metadata of the tileset.

No offense but what you're asking is clearly impossible, especially for a rom hack tool. It will take a great deal of effort to change how weather conditions work besides for their graphical stuff so let alone make new weather conditions. As for mixing tilesets, well this too is impossible, could you have a eye that can smell and see?

As i say in the first Post:
I haven't do anything on AdvanceMap since 3 Month.
And i do start on Working on AdvanceMap again, after in this "pool" of ideas are enough to start a poll where every one can tell which function is his favorite.

@all: thx for the ideas you have, go on post more ideas.

What:having a... well actually, let me give you an example.
