Optional view toggle to show properties of a tile #190

Hard to explain, but Lunar Magic does this, so I'll post a screenshot:

Basically, it shows how the player will interact with each tile. This would be very useful for Scribe, especially in cases like this:

Which paths can Mario actually walk on, which direction do they lead, and which are solid and can't be walked through? Which of the three rocks can be broken with a hammer, which is just decoration? etc.

It could look something like the paths being highlighted and the levels/interactable tiles having icons on them showing what they do (hammer on the rock, or an X or something, something else for the levels, etc.)

This information, "what can be walked on", "which rock can be destroyed" doesn't exist yet. If you could provide such a list, I could have a look to include it. Definitely which tiles can be used as levels would be good to know.

I don't know the information either, which is why this feature would be useful. The properties of each tile are defined somewhere in the game's programming I imagine.
