Slime Salad

I'm not quite sure what you mean. Do you mean that regardless of whether you save or not, the phantom saves aren't tehre the enxt time you run Game? If so, that sounds like memory corruption. I assume that you're not seeing anything strange happening in the saves folder. Getting a copy of g_debug.tx...

I very frequently mine cobblestone using cobblestone picks. I know this is slightly slower What?!! You're even crazier than Jabber! At least he knows how to do things efficiently. I'm never mining cobble with an unenchanted diamond pickaxe again! http://tmc.castleparadox.com/pics/diamond_pickaxes.p...

The problem wouldn't be that you're using NPC 30 for other things on other maps, and those are getting turned into chickens, would it? Wall detection isn't easy. You could try tracing a line from the hero to the NPC and seeing whether there are any walls on any of the tiles. You'll still get a few n...

I've never heard of anything like that either. Do the phantom saves continue to appear after you save the game? Is there anything in the gamename.saves folder, or a gamename.sav file present? If so, could you please zip up the saves folder and email it to one of us? Also, could you post or email the...

Sounds good!

Don't you even think of implementing this, James! Splines are my cup of tea. Maybe I can figure out how to do some reticulation too, but only if Mogri promises to make a game

I'm pleased as punch that someone is finally taking this initiative! This has been badly needed for years. I'm doubly pleased that you immediately singled out the Map Layers HOWTO chapter. That's the most hopelessly inadequate of the main chapters. The part that confuses people the most is that you ...

"npc copy count(npc:Chicken)" in your first script should be "npc copy count(npc:Chicken) -- 1". I think that explains the NPCs getting turned into chickens. The more serious error in your script is that you've misunderstood "alter npc". You can't alter NPC instances, o...

Thanks. I closed bug 552. The way heores and NPCs are drawn has completely changed since bug 177 was filed (now using slices), so it's great to know what the new graphical problems are. It's caused by the ordering of two Y-ordered slices not being changed from whatever they were last tick if they ha...

Thanks! Of the bugs I singled out, only 785 is related to platform-specific behaviour, and I would love to have people using Linux and OSX to also respond to that one. Please ignore the 'Platform' and 'OS' fields of each bug; they're automatically set to the OS of the person filing the bug, so they ...

No need to wait; it's a release candidate! ;)

I was going to go through the list and prune it down to just the ones that need testing. But there are too many, so instead here's a list of bugs that DON'T need testing, in most cases because I know that they're still present (I just tested quite a few myself). 14 (Well... it would be nice to know ...

A quick search shows that you can get a regex search plugin for gedit. (Personally I think the idea of a code editor with regex support out of the box is absurd!) GtkSourceView is used by quite a few different editors, which hopefully all support the HS syntax definitions, but I'm not familar with a...

Hah, we're planning on doing pretty much everything sooner to later. I always felt the point of feature requests was to help us prioritise the order in which we should implement things.

Looking nice!

Totally agree on both counts. I wanted to add 8-to-4-bit importing to the sprite editor, but the code was so bad that I gave up :(
