Actually, it IS possible to detect in which direction the player moves. Use a CE with the change condition "Change when Move of <player 1> at left side", then it will ONLY trigger the change when the player moves left. "Move of" is one of the rare cases where it actually works t...

Yes, I have noticed that bug recently, in level 10. It happens in very precise circumstances, difficult to describe. In XOR, the behaviour or the elements is related to the direction of the moves of the player. For example, when the player moves down, the zeppelins and atoms have precedence over the...

XOR v0.3 beta is available.
[EDIT] File removed. Please use the latest beta! [/EDIT]

I think I have fixed most problems now, but I'm still not sure.

Anyway, I will now wait the next RnD beta to continue, as it should be really simpler to program exactly what I need.

I think you're right. Appending to the end of the tape seems to work always. I use F2 very often and IIRC I never had problems. But using features such as pause before end to truncate an existing tape is dangerous.

Yes, the usage message doesn't give the detail:

Thanks for your positive answer, Holger! As you have certainly read, I've modified the genial solution of Zomis so that it works in *almost* all cases I need. But when I think I have finally found THE method, something gets broken somewhere else. And the complexity of the current method makes it dif...

I have a small idea about how it could be solved, but I'm not sure. Don't worry! I've found a solution (using the "pickable mushroom" method.) I think it's exactly what I need. But unfortunately, most of the tapes are now broken again, so I have to play several levels again to be sure tha...

Great! I was hoping that something like that existed! It's much more easy now! Thanks!

OK. Thanks a lot!

OK. Here is beta2: http://home.tele2allin.be/vt6328799/files/XOR_v0.2.zip [EDIT] File removed. Please use the latest beta! [/EDIT] I haven't kept my different attempts to solve the problems, sorry. But level 3 of the last levelset is a level that I use to test. Currently, it has exactly the same CEs...

Zomis, I have finally made something that works almost perfectly. Using "hitting something" works fine, so forget my previous post. Also, I have understood your method. Not really simple, but very smart! Thanks again! I thought I was ready for a new beta, but I noticed that some tapes were...

Yeah! Seems it's *almost* perfect! :) I don't understand yet how you did this magic, but currently I have noticed only one problem, and it should be possible to avoid it. In the GE7, I suppose you need to have everything that is solid (not empty.) Right? You forgot some elements, like the exit door....

I have tried the .hitting property too, but without luck so far. But I have now modified the CEs to create an additional temp CE that triggers the sound when it changes, and that works fine. Therefore, as far as I know, everything is working well now, except that the player is not killed when he is ...

Sorry to post in this old thread, but I would like to try RnD over Internet with a friend, under Windoze XP. So far, I have been able to play a 2 players game on a LAN without problem, using the method explained above. But I can't get it to work over the internet. It's probably because the hardware ...

The diamonds can now be picked but not snapped, as they should, and the animation and original sound is still present. Thanks again for this excellent method, Daniel. I have also been able to modify the sounds of some elements. However, I am still stuck with the sounds of the dolly, zeppelins and at...
