I was wondering if there was a faster way to put tiles in combo pages than just one tile at a time?

No, there isn't. Now you know what people that have made tilesets feel like. One tile at a time... v_v

There are some handy tricks though.

Say you have a lot of tiles on page 100. It would be an absolute pain to go through all 100 pages for each tile.

Would you like to do it just once?

Then go to combos in the quest menu, get one tile by scrolling down to page 100, and use c and v to copy it.

There are more tricks. Such as horizontal flips, and vertical flips. h and v keys.

It's a lot easier to do combo pages by adding tiles as you need them. This way you don't just make it all at once, cuz that would bore you.

One problem with adding them in haphazard like that though is the combos have a tendency to get messy so that it is hard to find the one you want. So if you do it that way, I would suggest that you be sure to add new combos in such a way as the combo list stays organized - ie put all mountain tiles together. If you need more space in one part of the list, you can copy some combos and then highlight a destination and press 'm' to move them there. When you do this, all your maps are updated to point to the new locations of the combos. Very handy little function.
