I've expanded the idea of copy-pasting maps and added the option to place multiple snippets before committing them to the map.

There's quite a bit that has changed! Check the imgur link for details. Being able to move chunks of the map around should make designing map layouts a bit easier. I've added layers because placing snippets on top of each other sucked otherwise.

I've also improved the VFS browser, now it shows map/sti previews as soon as you select the VFS file or its variant, making it quite handy for browsing game assets. The map viewer still uses the old click-to-scroll navigation, the editor windows (converter and compositor) now use cursors/wsad to scroll (shift to scroll faster), space to center map.
