Level completion coloring for finished levels gets reset for a levelset after finishing a level

[BryanFRitt]

If you click on the levelset set numbers a list will pop up for levels to choose. Completed levels are in green, attempted but not completed in yellow, and unattempted levels in red.

Occasionally when I finish a level all the levels for the level set will turn red like I never even completed a level in the level set. The "HALL OF FAME" still shows me as having finished the level(s), but the levels are still shown in red.

Hm, sounds weird! So this bug can not be reproduced in a deterministic way, but only happens every now and then? Or is there a way to always reproduce it?

I will check if I am able to reproduce this...

This had happened when I was doing a level in the 'CONTRIBUTIONS' > 'CONTRIBUTIONS 2005' > 'MARTIJN MODIJ - EMERALD HUNTER'.
It might have been level 20?

This same levelset reset the level completion coloring back to red again for all it's levels. Not sure what caused/when it happened this time, just started RocksNDiamonds and saw that they were all red again for this levelset.

I was unaware of this, because for me, all levels are always shown in green. I see a menu with items like:

...
023: LEVEL 23
024: LEVEL 24
...

-- in which all digits are green and all other characters are blue. What am I missing?

Levels completed will be in all green. Levels started started but never completed will be in all yellow. and Levels never started will be in all red. [at least for me]

What 'CUSTOM GRAPHICS' theme are you using? Maybe it has something to do with this?
Rocks'n'Diamonds Main menu > 'SETUP' > 'CUSTOM ARTWORK' > 'CUSTOM GRAPHICS'.
I'm using The 'WIDESCREEN MODE [1920x1080]' theme I found in these forums, but the level history based coloring also works this way when I switch it to 'CLASSIC' or 'CLASSIC GRAPHICS'.

I'm using no custom graphics at all. Perhaps it is different in EMC levels -- basically every levelset has (or potentially has) its own custom graphics. Currently in levelset 'Emerald Mine Club' -> 'Emerald Mine 10'. aka "$RO_GAME_DIR/levels/Emerald Mine Club/emc_emerald_mine_10"

Here's my screenshot for Emerald Mine Club Emerald Mine 10 using 'CLASSIC GRAPHICS'.

To set theme...
Main Menu > 'SETUP' > 'CUSTOM ARTWORK' > 'CUSTOM GRAPHICS' > 'CLASSIC GRAPHICS' OR 'EMERALD MINE 10' (Both produced the same screenshot according to kdiff3)
To go to select level to play...
'EMERALD MINE CLUB' > 'EMERALD MINE 10' > click on level number

Aha! I get the same results as you if I turn on (what I had turned off), Setup > Custom Artwork > Override Level Graphics.

It seems odd that using 'override level graphics' to override EMC Emerald Mine 10 with EMC Emerald Mine 10's graphics causes a change; but, it does.

Holger, what's going on here?

[filbo]

Ooooh, even weirder.

Before I started playing with this, 'Override Level Graphics' was 'Auto', 'Custom Graphics' was 'Classic Graphics'. And what I saw looked one way.

I changed 'Override' to 'Yes', and saw the other thing (classic graphics with color-coded levels).
I changed 'Override' back to 'Auto', and still saw classic graphics.
I changed 'Override' to 'No', and saw the original thing.
I changed 'Override' back to 'Auto', and saw classic graphics.

So now, no matter which I have visited recently, 'Auto' always shows classic graphics.

(All tested during a single run. I wasn't saving settings, so I'm pretty sure if I exit and re-enter it'll be back to the 'other' graphics. In fact, yes, that's what happens.)
