Two bugs

First of all, bomies have problems with doors, especially after they've been swimming. they end up "vibrating" a couple of pixels left, a couple of pixels right, and not entering the door. That's definitely a lot more serious than the next one. I was reading the specs for the .nw format and noticed the interesting way of representing signs, so I did the only sensible thing: I went immediately into the Graal level editor and added a sign with the text "ENDSIGN". I saved it, quit, reloaded the level, and lo and behold, the sign was blank. I don't think this'll cause too many problems, per se, but hey... it's a bug.

Anyway, there's my two bugs. GOD it feels good to finally be able to post...

The bomy door thing is easy to fix... if that happens to you, just go touch a vertical wall. That will zero out your x corrdanates, because swimming usually makes you have a lot of deciamals in the x corrdanates

Great! Thanks, Tupper. I've done a little more experimentation with the sign bug... it extends far beyond just SIGNEND (i meant SIGNEND in my last post where I said "ENDSIGN". you know I did). For example, you could make an NPC with the following script:

NPC Code:



if(created){

  message NPC 1;

}

ENDNPC

SIGN 30 30

Test sign

SIGNEND

NPC blah.gif 50 50

if(created){

  message NPC 2;

}
