Well it does currently support drawing routines 2 (XCom HWP) and 5 (Sectopod, Reaper), so you can edit those 2x2 units as you would have any other unit. I will add other drawing routines if you need them.
Granted, editing these units is not exactly intuitive and requires some knowledge of how they work. I will add a description on how to work with them on the wiki.

If that's not what you're after, then give me a description of what you want and let me see if I can do that.

Simple, what we need is to convert this:



into this:



And the same for other routines, of course.

With Falko's tools down, there is no way to properly create 2x2 units. Cutting them without the aforementioned tool is nearly impossible. God Bohemond, could be possible to add the option to create large units on your tool?

Many 2x2 unit sprite sheets found on the OpenXcom forum are in the easy to edit template format that Falko's Tool used, it would be most appreciated if you could make UnitSprite Studio compatible with their formats.

I happened to save all of the 2x2 unit templates used by Falko's Tool before it went down.

Hopefully these will help:

And here are the ready to use split versions of each sprite sheet that Falko's Tool created from the templates.

The next stop! =)
Can we have this process automated?

I'm sure it can be automated somehow, I'll give it a try.
