Half-pixel support?

I didn't see this mentioned before, but correct me if i'm wrong. Is it possible to add half pixel support to BYOND? Sometimes I might want to add to something, but a whole pixel is going to be too much. This might sound ridiculous and might be impossible, i'm just seeing if it is possible. I don't know if BYOND is actually using the smallest increment of color possible.

I was reading something about sub-pixels, saying that was the smallest increment.

DarkView	[link] That's probably what you're thinking of.

Justin Knight	Ok, I was just trying to figure out. I guess it just looks different because everything is on a smaller scale with BYOND. Other games use the whole screen, and have objects pretty large so it tricks you.

Justin Knight	Thanks Darky, that's what I was talking about. It's funny, actually, that topic proves that people that complained to me that BYOND doesn't have a low resolution per-tile, were wrong. This is an entirely different story though, and it just starts flames when I say the forbidden word, 'wrong'.
