Add properties to individual tiles within the Tilemap Editor

[iampremo]

Ticket #207511

Feature Type: feat_addition_ide Description: The Tilemap Editor should allow users to add properties to individual tiles. Benefit: The Tilemap Editor should allow users to add properties to individual tiles. As an example, let's say I want to add the property "1" to some tiles of my Tilemap to indicate that such tiles are "Water", or "2" to indicate "Grass", etc. Later, at runtime, I could get the tile property at the player's current position to determine what footstep sound should I play (water, grass, etc). This would make programming way more flexible, and mapping less tedious.

you can already do this using either the actual tile index or the remaining and unused bits from the tile's data blob. i think it would be quicker and better to update the manual with examples on using the data blob, and possibly even doing a website blog with a quick tutorial on flippin' bits.

@attic-stuff Yeah but that's an extremely clunky solution - Especially for the footstep materials example. You still have to go back and forth between looking at the tileset, figuring out the id, then writing that down in a table - Repeat all of that several times for each tileset. A small change to the tileset editor would be a godsend.
