The db always showed about 900 unhandled uploaded files. It did not delete some files (it does now) and I don't have the patience or time to do forensic debugging to see what exactly went wrong there.

Yep, that will help a lot. I have the tileset file handling stub in the processor, it's just not yet doing anything. We'll need to decide on how the client<-> server communicate layer, z,x,y values before the server copes with them.
