pressing up or down on this screen results in a segfault

- make a new level - set the engine to BD - place 3 gems in the level - set the required gem count to 0 (make sure "automatically count gems needed" isn't checked) result: the gem count will appear as 0 at first, then it will be set to 3 expected behavior: the gem count will remain at 0 an...

when playing a BD level with diagonal movement enabled in single-step mode on keyboard, it can be hard to move diagonally from a standstill (i.e. after the move delay has passed), as you need to press both arrow keys at (more or less) precisely the same time, otherwise you move in one of the orthogo...

(referring to undo/redo ingame, not in the editor.) a peculiar blind spot: there's an option for undo/redo to have dedicated buttons on the ui (though in BD artwork only undo appears), but you can't set a dedicated key shortcut for them. not sure what the default keys for undo/redo should be (if any...

Oh, different empty spaces... whether they're exclusive to their respective engines or not, some of them may also be considered unnecessary leftovers... Which reminds me... Back when I first played R'n'D 2.0.1 (that was basically my first ever R'n'D experience which I got from a shareware DVD), it ...

You could potentially use invisible elements, such as invisible wall, invisible steel wall, invisible sand, character ' ' (blank space) and dripper... although that's still not enough unfortunately, yeah... thank you for the suggestion to use invisible walls. it turns out between true "empty s...

did not notice until this morning that empty_space_1 thru 16 display as numbers if shown in the help screen and not empty space (see the "07" in the second screenshot)... bummer. as suggested there are 7 headers total that need empty space next to them ("BOULDER DASH 1 ELEMENTS",...

Attached are drop-in replacements for helpanim.conf and helptext.conf for the Boulder Dash levelsets. This is a completed version of the Game Elements page for Boulder Dash that properly groups elements by their source (BD1, BD2, Construction Kit, New Boulder Dash, Crazy Dream, GDash, and misc.) and...

strange bug i can't seem to reproduce: after a long session that included turning "Override Level Graphics" on and off a couple times, i tried to go to the level creator while on a BD level (specifically Achim Hofmann - Achim Hofmann level 01), and the "this level is read only!"...

People who primarily play RnD and EM levels and are not used to the control scheme of BD may appreciate an option in the Game Engines menu that makes the BD levels use the same control scheme as RnD levels. ---- In RnD (and EM), holding two perpendicular directions at once has some very useful behav...

To reproduce: Go into Setup -> Game & Menu. Set "Game Engine Snapshot Mode" to "Every Collect". Enable "show undo/redo buttons", and disable "show load/save buttons". Enter a BD level, and collect some gems. Click the "undo" button on the game pa...

do you plan to add support for a swappable second game panel to the RnD engine too? it would be nice for my tutorial (ncrtorial), where all the info you need that isn't in the default RnD panel (e.g. white keys, EMC keys) could be put on a second panel instead of being crammed into the only panel av...

just recently i wanted to make a custom panel for RnD-style BD levels that shows, among other things, how many lives the player currently has. then i realized the only way to show the player's lives is to show the level name (which has the lives appended onto it if playing with multiple lives). so a...

notice the dirt is still under rockford for a little while.
