The idea here is that the world editor will swap out charsets and palettes as defined by board#. Potentially this could end up being a board feature similar to the board mod, as if this were done in the editor I'd expect the user to expect it to happen at runtime too. I'm still not decided whether I want this to be in the editor config for now or if I want it to wait for it to be a world feature (2.85).

board_charset# = file.chr
board_palette# = file.pal

Just a bit of user input, along with a bit of a guilty admission of mine:

I would actually use char sets were they hooked to the board. I... sort of don't use char sets because I don't like the prospect of not having everything in the same toolbox... Man, what a great idea, though. Too bad it requires a world format revamp, and they would be an opt-in feature.
Need a dispenser here.

Currently there's no plan to tie char sets to boards at runtime. This would be an editor-only feature (and therefore doesn't need a format change).

I'm strongly considering changing how we do this -- it is pretty sloppy to do this through the editor CNF. A better solution would be to wait until 2.85 and make it a board feature that is triggered whenever a board is loaded in gameplay with a hotkey to import the board charset/palette (ALT+D sounds good, move default palette somewhere else (ALT+A sounds good)). Opinions?

We chose not to do it the way originally requested and a new request was started with the same idea in my previous post, so I'll just use that thread.
