Alt + 1 -> Snapshot of whole level, without npcs.
Alt + 2 -> Snapshot of what YOU see on your screen.
Alt + 5 -> Saves level without all NPC's, into a .nw file.
Alt + 8 / 9 -> For zooming.

I'd like to see the first, third and fourth added again!

Except that using the same head GFX as someone else isn't "stealing" the head.

You know exactly what I was saying and it's not like anyone cares enough to be overparticular of my wording, other then you of course.

Which is a good thing. There's no reason why someone should be able to monopolize a given head name/number.

I don't remember if it had the npc codes or not, but people could easily copy and paste level work, gfx, and whatever.

It didn't give NPC scripts except for some light effects. I'd like to see some actual evidence that Alt+5 was causing widespread level theft, and even if it was, the fact that so many servers are using their own tilesets nowadays pretty much eliminates this problem.

Yea, I didn't think it gave the scripts.
When I managed NP, there were a lot of stolen levels used as tryouts. Whether they got them from alt+5 or from a staff job, I do not know.
Also, don't the graphics from each server load into your webgifs folder still?

This can hardly be described as a serious problem.

That depends on who you ask. For a PW Manager, or staff that hires level makers, it can be a big problem.
