Hi all, just found two tiny mushrooms growing directly on the tile in the bathroom. I noticed two spots a few days ago, but thought it was just shoe dirt or dust and decided I'd clean it up when I cleaned the bathroom. The mushrooms looked like the ones someone described with a skinny stalk with a hat on. I love mother nature and all, but not this. I slid them off the tile --- anyone else have this? and flushed them down the toilet. I had never seen this on the floor here, and this house is about 30 years old. They weren't growing out of anything, just on the tile. I live about 1/2 mile from the beach, so it's frequently damp, and we have trouble with things drying in the bathroom. My husband is not very good with turning on the exhaust fan when he's in the shower. I sprayed the exposed floor with Lysol, but after reading all this, I am worried they will come back. Anyone else have a similar experience? |

Well, the Intel powerbooks run PPC code in emulation, so everything will be slower until I can recompile for Intel. I'm glad it's playable with animation off in the meantime! |

F- It's a *very* faded iron on of a little girl's face, Zelda. The shirt is from my college work study job, and the little girl was my boss's daughter. We joked that year that any work we did we did for Zelda, and she became our mascot after awhile.
It does look like a pair of lungs. Funny. |
| |
No, unfortunately it slows down a lot and does not run smoothly. I guess Escape is too complex ;) |
| |
At first glance I thought you watermarked the picture with some ... anatomic illustration of lungs? Then I noticed it's actually printed on Cortney's shirt. What's that? |
| |
Thank God I'm not alone on this. My wife was starting to accuse me of missing the seat and hitting behind the toilet!
Summary of remedies:
1. Salt
2. Hydrogen Peroxide
3. Bleach (hasn't worked for me)
4. TKO
Any others? |

mm: Does it work with animation on? What happens?
When I can get access to an Intel mac I'll try to see if I can build ppc/intel binaries. |

Tom, I've got a new (Intel) MacBook OSX 10.4.6 (the smallest one available) - Escape works normally when I unable animation in the preferences menue what doesn't bother me. I thought you might know this as a "no bug"-report (; |

R-G-B is definately an elegant solution.
I do understand the arguments contra more colours. |

When I uploaded my most recent level, "Contact" I got an error message that said "upload failed, Error 404", but it actually did upload successfully. |

Minor editor bug: if you're in the bizzaro world, place a panel or teleport then press 'escape' to cancel, the editor populates the square with the tile from the real world. |

Yes, I've beaten all the levels on nightmare. Hunter is pretty hard. |

I don't think there'll ever be more colors of panels. I think the R-G-B scheme is elegant, and just enough colors to do interesting things. One of the things that makes level design fun is the paucity of building blocks--too many pieces and it becomes to straightforward. I also don't want there to be too many colors, because I want the game to be accessible to color blind folks too. So, we'll probably have to do with 2-digit su doku for now! ;) (No doubt there are fancier embeddings..)
Yeah, bookmarks should persist across edits to a level. There's a comment in the code to this effect in the spot where I'd do it, which I should get around to with the overhaul of the bookmarks system. |

I think more colors/colored panels would be welcome--I often find myself thinking "I could do something soooo cool if there were more colors" when designing levels--but not a high priority. Probably just as often I enjoy the simplicity and limitations that the 3-color scheme enforces.
On another note: how about bookmark support in the level editor? Making my recent two looooong levels, it was annoying while designing to have to keep resolving every time I opened it if I wanted to see what the circumstances were at certain points with X number of panels activated, etc. |
