Maybe you couldn't mention "Room X" and/or use a different (up and down arrow are very similar 
) symbol for the drop place.

I agree. Those sound like good ideas. Thank you!Jannik wrote:- You should remove the fake yellow key

Then come back on June 1! We're excited to hear comments and just to release the levels!Jannik wrote:Thanks for the three levels! I'm curious about the whole levelsets ...
Whenever you seeJannik wrote:- I don't understand the meaning of "talking" in conjunction with the right arrow
pointing to some words, that means that somebody in the level is speaking those words to you.I think that its original purpose was to confuse people. Back when this level was first started, it was required to run through the enemies at the lower right. Originally, I believe that a “bad guy” put that fake key there and hid the real key behind the blue passable wall after the enemies.Jannik wrote:- You should remove the fake yellow key
Well, it doesn’t look too bad to me, as long as I stick with classic R&D graphics.Jannik wrote:- the passable (!) spring wall
Do you mean like a light switch, or a CE that looks likeJannik wrote:You should use a different symbol to start the final boss.
?Yes, some of them ought to be broken into multiple levels.HerzAusGold wrote:The level's are big...
It does not look bad, it's just hard to find out, that you can walk through, because the standard spring is not passable. So I would prefer something like a door, a tube, a port or your custom element "walkable wall". Just my opinion ...Well, it doesn’t look too bad to me, as long as I stick with classic R&D graphics.
The problem is not how it looks. The 'S' letter is not unique in this level, there are many words, like "FINAL<BOSS", or "SIGNS:" where the player can (accidentally) trigger the "remote control sand" long before he reaches the final boss.Do you mean like a light switch, or a CE that looks like the 'S' letter?
On most levels, I do too. However, on our computer, Police Challenge (a 128x128 level) runs very slowly unless double speed movement is on.HerzAusGold wrote:Sometimes it seems double speed is ON. I really hate controlling the player in this mode.

So you have not so long to wait.
If you try to fast forward through Police Challenge (a 128x128 level) on our computer, it really does not make it go any faster. I don't know how fast your computers are.Daniel H. wrote:However, on our computer, Police Challenge (a 128x128 level) runs very slowly unless double speed movement is on.
In general, if you have a huge level with many objects moving at the same time, the tape loading takes a lot of extra time. This is because the tape loader actually re-plays the level, step by step. On faster computers, it could take less time, but it still can take a lot of time...Daniel H. wrote:If you try to fast forward through Police Challenge (a 128x128 level) on our computer, it really does not make it go any faster.

Does it help speed the loading up if most the moving objects are as still as they are in Police Challenge?Zomis wrote:In general, if you have a huge level with many objects moving at the same time, the tape loading takes a lot of extra time.
Today I broke the missions into different levels. They will be this way in the final release. Thank you for the advice!Jannik wrote:- I think the levels could be smaller, especially because the three missions don't really need to be in one level.

Now that the missions have been broken into separate levels, double speed movement has been removed from the player.I wrote:However, on our computer, Police Challenge (a 128x128 level) runs very slowly unless double speed movement is on.
