Bridges, teleporters, doors, ceiling fans, lights, crates ... provided prefabs.

Prefabs made in J.A.C.K. or TrenchBroom can also be used in SnapTiles (.map version 220 required, J.A.C.K. uses this by default).

Tried to make the editor interesting.

Ironically, I cannot really think of a good use for it. Although the speed of putting together a map is unrivaled.

Tried to make the editor interesting.

Which editor? Is SnapTiles part of a bigger project? Or is it THE editor?

Well, it's well known that nowadays kids are lazy seaten on the couch playing(or better saying, watching) videogames..you could do a "Snapmap" version of SnapTiles using console controls!

I don't have any other plans to do something with or it or anything.

Interesting work Baker. Makes me wonder about the idea of a engine with built in editor to generate random maps on the fly, during intermissions... are you releasing the sources ?

I did once make a Mark V with txqbsp built-in as an experiment so engine with built-in map compiler is completely possible. I haven't made any decisions on the source release except that I would revisit in the future (maybe in a year) and if this actually gets used for something ...
