It's not really a level editor that's being requested, rather some tilelayer features. You can already create layered levels with Gonstruct and use them online.

Well I heard they were adding all these new and great things to the new LE. Though I would be more than content with new feature added to the current one.

I've personally not heard of "a new level editor" aside from vague mentions of possibly getting a scripted one soon™.

I'v heard, from what I believe to be quite a reliable source, within the graal team, that it has been in the making.

on a side note, I have tried to use Gonstruct, but for some reason I cannot get it to work. It's always a black screen, and even if I place anything down, it just disappears. But then again, I have heard people have had trouble with it too.

Sounds like you haven't configured tilesets properly or alternatively not set the path to your Graal folder. There is nothing wrong with Gonstruct at all aside from a minor display bug when scrolling in tileset.

Tilelayers would definitely open up more opportunities for levels to be much more dynamic and convenient than they are now by removing unnecessary images and scripts for things as simple as bridges, roofs, trees, and so on. This would also help improve the overall game flow and would require less processing (Less images and scripts to load) in my opinion. Not to mention, this would expand the creativity of levels to another notch.

i thought ziro said this was implemented...or something? x_x

Tilelayers are, yes, but not some of the suggestions mentioned in this thread.

You can do TIle Layers on Gconstruct, I seen a server with over 3 different tile layers and it looked bad ass...use to be roak but thats not up no more.
