Is it possible to make messages appear, just like in the first level? Or are those hard-coded too..?

I'm sorry about making so many replies, but shall we send eachother our games? I guess email is the only way, so if any of you have made any good ones, please send them to me-
Olivergarland@f2s.com

Thanks
Oli

P.S. I've got a good dragster level for anyone who wants it.

Well, I've made one cool level...
It's kinda a game, there's this bridge, and you have to make as much ropes break without breaking the whole bridge ':p'
It's pretty fun, I forgot to save it though '<img'>
Oh well, it's not that hard to make it again.

You can load backup.lvl then, but yes, it's annoying. Restarting the level instead would be better. Would be nice for collection too...

- How about a strength/mass ratio for objects?
- Density checks should try to find how much of an object is in a dense block, instead of just corners (if I observed that right). There aren't many objects in water after all, so it can't really degrade performance.
- About the char issue with objects: using a short indicating the number of objects and chars or shorts in objects depending on that number would be better than what I said a post ago.

- I'd like numbers at lines in the 'T'ileset thingy.
- On Mac laptop keyboards you need to type fn-backspace to get delete. Guess what I want...
- Let a 16x16 table with the tileset (should be clickable) pop up when you hold some key.
- Make a higher resolution let you see more of the level.

Has anyone else been annoyed when you test out a level and die, which makes it exit the editor? Especially when you haven't saved

They thought of that: If you die (or quit the editor) and haven't saved your level, start the editor again, and load 'backup.lvl' (I think, I don't have the documentation in front of me). That should give you back your level. I guess if you edit the new level first, it gets overwritten, so don't do that...

On preview: what Jonathan said.

Maybe I'm just slow, but after unzipping the editor package into my Gish directory, if I click on the GishEd executable, it just opens the normal Gish game.  What the heck am I doing wrong?

- Mouse map coordinates aren't scaled to zoom.
- Thanks to the editor I got a negative score. If only the sign would be displayed...
- I want more control over pistons, like muscles in the Sodaconstructor.
- If you are ever going to implement scripting, take a look at Java.

Make sure the object is selected, and you should be able to change textures with [ and ]. ] is one key down and to the left from the top right on an US keyboard.

2004-10-14T17:08 Edit: The next page is empty! I think they (Alex/Josiah) haven't seen it yet. See strange forum in miscellaneous. If you post now we'll need another 14 (15-1) posts to get this again.

Same edit: @viljettv: Strange.

Why do you think that text file is included? Read it.

Replays of custom maps don't save!

Also, I can't figure out how to correctly adjust the alpha of tiles with complex shapes, like the lava-wave tiles. Changing the alpha (with 'a') of things like lava or water also removes the transparency, which I would prefer didn't happen.

the object is selected, ie. it is green. but nothing happens if i press ']'.

i've also tried to send the keypress event via the window manager
and i borrowed an us keyboard from a friend, but no success.

the object seems to exist, because gish can climb on it, but it is invisible.

Oh, I got as far as  the player select screen thinking that was the "player menu".  Sorry  about that.

Of course they don't; the current replay format doesn't support them. I think they already noticed this.
