Well, there are no big secrets. ;-) Most are just left-overs from editing and adding stuff, like the toons borrowed from Karl Hörnell. > In the same file, under the acid drips there are some stars...

Wow, very tricky CEs... And VERY quick fingers required! But good fun indeed, although I must admit that I got some problems in the last few levels... :-o

Maybe the combos in the last levels were a bit too hard and tricky for me. :-)

> Steffest here, from DX-Boulderdash (really) Hey, Steffest! I'm happy and proud to welcome you in the R'n'D forum! :-) As some people might know, DX-Boulderdash (although a BD/EM clone by itself) was one of the big "idols" R'n'D was modelled on! :) > Wauw ... I can't believe how advanced ...

> That's really good news! Can't wait for the EMC engine release! It's already available in the stable 3.1.2, but the EM/EMC levels are not yet converted.

> Seems, the EMC engine needs a little fine tuning. Fortunately not! I misunderstood what happened -- with the new EMC engine, the level behaves exactly like in your video snapshot! :-) What I meant was only: How on earth can the second player reach the right side of the level -- the destructible wa...

That was also me... *sigh*

Maybe the best solution is to simply use ConfEdit for this! :-)

That was also me... :-/

Oops, this really sounds strange! :-o ;-) Although this would probably be possible, it doesn't really fit into the current implementation, because there is some amount of recursive pre-processing of gr...

Thanks for reporting this bug!

Just fixed it! :-)

Cool stuff -- and it really works!! :-)

Tried to do this by myself already, but failed -- it did not work right in too many situations... But this one is nice and simple and works quite fine! :-)
