Do you think it would be easy for us to connect two levels by a long hallway, rather than a pair of stairs, to overcome the level size limit?

You could use a teleporter that triggers once you reach a certain point in the hallway.

Yeah, I thought of that, and even suggested that. I'm just wondering how it would work with items being thrown through. However, considering

To make it less obvious, you could put a sharp corner and set-up multiple one way teleporters all down the hall.

You could call your map levels Dungeon East wing, West wing etc. Would work quite well I guess. :)

Any possibility of adding positioning to objects set to wall....(ie... upper left, upper middle, upper right, middle left, middle middle, middle right, lower left, lower middle, lower right). What I would like to see is something like a pair or torches in upper left and right with a alcove in the middle, or maybe a wall pictures or change of placement for secret switches. allowing a 9 object position allows for more variety without (hopefully adding) coding complexity. Just a thought

I believe the default assets act as sort of wall replacements. The only way to do what you are suggesting would be to make new assets on your own unless a new system would be created.

That wouldn't fit, as maps currently are 32x32, though there's no real limit on number of levels, so especially all the little rooms to the right can be on a different level.

The main room to the left needs to either be slightly less high, or you need to include a stairs somewhere, like on 2,30.
