Custom animations are possible without tiles
I guess that could be done with the current state of the editor as well
It would be easier with tiles though

I stand by you and am against the idea of tiles, though I stand by myself (mindfuck) and say it would be easier.
Probably not much easier though, and it would be a pain in the ass to add the whole system.

Please define "arbitrary geometries and distances" for someone that doesn't want to take a word salad and figure out what all the ingredients to it are.

10/11(?) pixel jump height
8 minimum corridor height
and... well those are the big ones I'd guess.

not just that but having pixel quanta of distances between things instead of tile or half-tile quanta of distance is a huge boon to route balance and staircase design

fourway would've been impossible in tiles

Some of us prefer tiles and would like them, though.

did you know that spinning stars work like this???

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. execute_strings on fire off the shoulder of Overmars. I watched object-beams glitter in the dark near the room_goto_fix. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears...in...rain. Time to die.

point is to have tiles in gg2 without losing anything you still need to have the ability to arbitrarily place them so you'd have to make it so people can offset tiles and draw in between the lines
basically we'd need a custom editor.
