It's just as it says, a tileset cannot have entirely transparent tiles, except for the first one which must be. Just fill the empty tiles with solid color.

Oh, that means that there are tiles other than the one in the upper-left corner that are completely transparent. To fix it, put anything in the other tiles; it can even be just a dot as long as it's not fully transparent.

Also, OMG! Double ninja'd! By Salmoneous and AA!

It doesnt really matter if that message pops-up, the tile still works.  :)

yes, the tileset works fine still. But there is still a big message box in the way which makes it hard to use. I think that box should be deleted so a tileset can work with fully transparent tiles in it.

I think the box is there for a reason. Maybe KS becomes unstable if you have tilesets with fully transparent tiles in them?

I think it's there so you don't actually place empty tiles that'd make KS load slower. Because the one tile that is supposed to be completely transparent isn't rendered at all, while all the others are. Something like that was what Nifflas said once, I think.

Nifflas said that the top left corner was exclusively for deleting because it's easier for the game not to generate that tile. If you used another tile for deleting, KS would try to load every square you deleted.

So it would crash?  :O

No, it would just be slow.
