Well, here's the roadmap (including the previous and current version): - 3.0.0: custom artwork and custom elements - 3.1.0: fix most known bugs of the R'n'D engine - 3.1.1: fix those bugs that are still left in 3.1.0 - 3.2....

Yoshi348: Thanks for reporting these two little, but nasty bugs. I've just fixed them. :-)

Richard: If you knew both bugs, why haven't you reported them?!

It is possible to add such a function. But I think it is very specific (although I'm sure that _you_ know exactly for what you'll need it ;-) ), so most users will be more confused by it than being able to make use of it, I'm afraid.
