Fancy that!

A complete fluke, I only noticed that error because I looked at the code for control() when responding to Bagne's "arrow keys and space bar" thread!

Did anybody else have the problem that, contrary to the 'what's new' text doc., the enemy dissolve animations DON'T actually test in the editor?

Will try that. Didn't see any button, so assumed there wasn't one. Pardon my ignorance.

I was wrong about the joystick fix. They still don't work. I am looking into it right now...

EDIT: found and fixed three problems with the SDL backend's joystick support. It now works about as well as it did in the xocolatl release (which is still kinda crappy (bug 285), but at least it works :)

Thanks for the enemy death animations update thing. I spent 15 1/2 minutes watching various bad guys get squashed and vaporized.

Is that really, really, really sick? Raspberry!

lol

Just a note, there is a bug in Ypsiliform that causes a crash if you try to link a door to a map with more than 3 layers. The bug is fixed already in the nightlies, and we will be making a Ypsiliform+1 release soon to fix that and a few other issues.

This is in Ypsilform +1, the mini-map is broken, despite the tiles not, this used only layer 0 and 2 so...

Should I e-mail the RPG as a test case, or is it easily replicated?

EDIT: And oddly enough the same thing happens on resize map in Custom.

Bob the Hamster · Posted: Sun Jan 31, 2010 12:13 pm Post subject:

How is it broken? I just tested the mini-map in wandering hamster, and it seems fine. What should I be looking for? I can't tell from the screenshot you posted.

Although it does make sense if you see the same problem in the minimap and the mapresizer, because they use the same code to draw the scaled-down map.

This together with '' . bug_title('815') . '' I think means we will be having a Ypsiliform+2 before long :)

NeoSpade · Posted: Sun Jan 31, 2010 12:44 pm Post subject:

The highlighted areas are (mostely) roof and wall tiles in usual view, but entering the minimap causes them to become a floor tile, maybe it's because the map is very small.

TMC · Posted: Mon Feb 01, 2010 12:52 am Post subject:

I can't reproduce it either. Are you using overhead bits in the passmap? That causes similar problems (not sure if this is a filled bug or not. Suppose it should be fixed *grumble*)

I like the idea of continuing to rerelease a stable release whenever we fix some significant (non-critical) bugs or add safe usability echancements. But rather than just fixing bug 815, how about we (ie. other people :P) do some wide testing of old games and hunt for other problems? I assume Missing is still broken?

No overheads, just layer 0 and layer 2 here, and the effected tiles are all layer 0 tiles.
