Actually, yesterday I found out that even 3.2.3 is enough for my needs, because I used separate erasers for every row.

AFAIK the default behavior (with missing/malformed musicinfo.conf) is to play the tracks alphabetically, the first one in the first level etc., so I guess the program didn't read the musicinfo.conf correctly. Please post it here. Also, are you sure it's in the right directory? Reading stderr.txt and...

Tested it in 3.2.4-1: WMC really does appear to be fixed and the limit is enough for my needs (for now). So this part of the bug can be closed. However, answering no to the "quit the game" still leads to buggy behavior. It seems the change doesn't complete, or something. (Example level: CE...

I think there may be two bugs, actually - even if one answers no (don't quit game) to the question, the game doesn't work as intended, and puts the player into the same room. By the way, would the fix (supposing it works for WMC) work for a bigger WMC, e.g. 60x60 in size? Well, 60x60 is probably cra...

I've just noticed that the latest (...probably latest) 'world making challenge' level by Zomis doesn't work in version 3.2.3, printing an "internal error ! element custom_6 caused endless loop !" when the player moves to another room. The element in question: After creation of custom_6 - C...

But only after solving the level. Modifying the score every time the game is loaded could mess up CE programming that uses the score variable to store something. (I think it was used in Zelda to store the room number, for example.)

Already said this on viewtopic.php?t=1127, but I'll repeat it for completeness: what about simply using a scrollbar?

Although I can see how this could be used, it is IMHO *too* complicated. BTW: What about using CE score somehow? Something like this: when touching CE2, set CE score to its CE value, then subtract my CE value from it if CE score gets 0, it means that my CE value was greater Of course, that won't be ...

If I understand it correctly, then the answer is yes, I meant a new gadget.
(BTW: What about a vertical scrollbar on the CHANGE tab? That would solve the problem, but it would be difficult to program in the current RnD gadgets engine.)

Maybe the game engine could handle it -
Moore's Law: The speed of hardware doubles every 18 months.

...but maybe not:
Gates' Law: The speed of software halves every 18 months.

For example, a CE that uses... this? (BTW Holger, if you haven't already, that one is IMHO really worth implementing...)

On second thought... OK, maybe 10,000 *is* enough.

IMO 99 sooner or later (but probably sooner) won't be enough.

Btw Zomis, could you please explain the room variables in bigger detail? I probably understood them once (long time ago), but today the level make no sense to me I know what bitmasks are and that they are used in it to store if individual diamonds where taken.
