Bigger Tilesets

Is it possible to create bigger tilesets than the normal ones?

Nope.

I think the number of tiles in a tileset is the highest that any 2 characters for a tile in a .nw file can get to.

There is 4096 and that's 2^12.

There are 4096 squares in a level... there are 4096 tiles on a tileset. Tilesets don't need to be any bigger.

Use a different tileset for each level if you have to.

Oh god....

You are actually wrong though. There can be more then 4096 tiles with the use of tile layers (as I have done).

Or maybe it could be made possible to have a different tileset for each player?
That would be easiest way to implement multi-tileset without changing the level format.

GK does a good job of managing tilesets(interior), by having the main tileset(addtiledef) and dividing it up into wall areas, floor areas and so on, and changing those when needed(addtiledef2).

That's easy...just make a Tiles system WNPC to do the dirty work.
