 The reason only the floor and top object is drawn for any space is
for reasons of speed.

 All floor and top objects are stored in an array the size of the map.
This makes lookup of that floor or top object very quick.

 To actually get the objects at the maps location, and then go through
and check them for various status will be quite a bit slower.

 The idea is a good one, I am not sure of the performance aspect.

 Depending on how it is handled with client/server, it could perhaps
be done then without much problem.  I really don't know how the display
is going to be handled in that case.
