I'm now using triple digit values for each tile in the tile maps because I've added more tiles to the tileset and it gotten to the point that each tile needs a double digit value along with the single digit value that gives the behavior of each tile. Naturally this breaks compatibility with the levels of the older format and I have to convert them manually, and have the reconfigure the level editor as well, but that's the price you pay.
I didn't do it earlier because I didn't expect to use that many tiles. I then decided to include background tiles, so naturally that increases the amount of tiles in the tileset.
You may notice that these tiles are from Mario Bros and CaveStory. I do these as place holders, and I eventually create my own.
