heh, yes...
It's hard when I don't even know whether it's a bug or not, just that it doesn't sound how I think it should, you know?

Regarding the bug in the Destroy FX plugin, did you try looking at the source code to find it?

The first project is to make the bookmarks menu able to work like the VCR in the solution manager, so that you can do all of the normal playing things when watching a solution (like zooming).

I've been working on it! I made some progress, but I'm not ready yet...

Good question. The Destroy FX plugin didn't sound quite right (probably because of a bug I couldn't find) which was discouraging. I may give it another shot because I think it's a good idea, but I didn't make the contest deadline. The AAD rewrite is still on deck...

Speaking of coding, whatever happened to the new DFX plugin & AAD rewrite?

"Expect more changes to escape starting in october..."

That was your statment in the beginning of september.

I'm curious! I guess we all are waiting for it?

I had mushrooms growing on my kitchen floor. There had been a leak
from the kitchen sink. The cabinets were moldy, and then I found the
fungus thing. It was sort of, uhm, like a hard white foam. Very tough and fibrous- had to saw it off with a knife. Then a bunch of the lanoleum tiles were loose, and there was white fungus under the
one next to where the mushroom type thing grew.

I had the leak fixed, and sprayed a LOT of bleach all over the inside of the cabinets. I reglued all the loose cabinets. Where the fungus was
growing, I put a very toxic anti-bacterial, anti-fungal product. It's made for killing all sorts of germs in a veterinarian type situation... kills
off contageous diseases, etc. I normally avoid using any toxic chemicals, but this seemed like a good time to make an exception. The mold seems to have stopped growing, and I imagine things are drying out pretty well now under the floor. It's been at least 4 months
since I've seen any mushroom growth. That whole area of the floor is sort of warped and swollen, though... I think the particle board beneath the lanoleum floor tiles got first swollen with moisture, then invaded with mold. It is gross. But I think it may be under control now, as long as the area stays dry (I live in a very dry climate).

Man, I wanted to do one of those...

(SPOILERS)
Yeah, in retrospect I should have hidden that better. ROLing hc won't work, because whatever is rotated needs to have type wchar_t. I think XORing word[i] to set the high bit would have been more innocent-looking.

Should have ROL()d hc instead of c; that might not have set off their suspicions.

(I didn't find the bug by just reading the source, but I did once find a bug by reading an LJ source file when they had a crash bug in it and offered a free permanent account to anyone who found it.)

There's probably nothing I can do about this, because SDL handles all the sound stuff. But you could definitely get the source package and recompile with -DNOSOUND, especially since sound is not yet enabled in the release versions!

With Linux Mandriva 2007.1 all I get from escape is an immediate crash. I think it's somewhere in the sound drivrer. This worked on Mandriva 2006.

If a backtrace would be useful let me know and I will post it.

Pretty awesome!

We'll certainly find a new airport in Escape! :-)

Well, that is just super-duper-interesting!

I just found this in my bathroom this evening. How fast do these things grow? I was gone for 15 hours today, I come home... and I have mature mushrooms coming from the grout by my bathtub!

Jungle Fever is not as bad as you might think!

Major League levels would be wonderful, I' love to see more of them. I've tried to edit them, but oh my God...
