I heard Suyo has a talking Goomba in one of his levels. How does he do that?

Added due to no request at all:
The level I found out this method is Round Space 1, by Buffooner.

How to make a Loop on a level:
1. Put a Level Transition on a level.
2. Put it on the far right/left side of the level.
There are two ways of doing this:
A: Edit the code
B: Put the transition and decrease the amount of space of tiles via the "change grid size" Button
3. Make sure you you put a sign telling that you shall HOLD RIGHT or else you shall fall into a bottomless pit.
4. Profit!

Credit to Fourinone for Profit step.
Credit to Buffooner for how to do it. He didn't tell me, but, meh.
Has this been posted?

Example:
Code: Select all
25x30~0*28*2K2M0*28*2K2M0*28*2K2M0*28*2K2M0*28*2K2M0*28*2K2M0*28*2K2M0*28*2K2M0*28*2K2M0*28*2K2M0*28*2K2M0*28*2K2M0*28*2K2M0*28*2K2M0*28*2K2M0*28*2K2M0*28*2K2M0*28*2K2M0*28*2K2M0*28*2K2M0*28*2K2M0*28*2K2M0*28*2K2M0*28*2K2M0*28*2K2M~1,49,847,0,0,Right|43,768,852|42,16,832,1,90|73,48,864,One%20way%20pipe%2E%20Enter%20on%20other%20side%2E|73,608,864,Please%20hold%20right%20to%20enter%20pipe%20or%20there%20will%20be%20pain%2E%20And%20screaming%2E~1~1~My%20Level

OMG YOU STOLE MY METHOD!!

But yeah, make the level bigger than you want it, place the level transition where you want the level to end, decrease the size of the level back to what you want it so the level transition is on or beyond the edge of the level. And remember to hold right, or the bottemless pit will eat you.

hack the background to just blue
1. make a level
2. copy the code of the level
3. goto end of the code and goto the 1 at it not the the 1rst one at the end the last one at the end unless the My%numberLevel thing has a one thenmake it the second 1
example:
Code: Select all

He made the tiles NaN by erasing a few numbers/letters from the tile code; and the walkable fence...check out the Amazing ANTIGRAVITY Hack topic in the Level Designer section (Not Level Series or Levels, but Level Designer)

Finding the actual length of a moving block:

For moving blocks with an acceleration of 1 or greater, the distance traveled by the block is equal to speed * length – speed^2. For example, a block with a speed of 4 and a length of 60 will travel 224 pixels from its starting position, or 7 spaces (one space is 32 pixels).

To get a block with a certain speed to move a certain distance, the length entered would be (wanted distance)/speed + speed.

To get a block with a certain length to move a certain distance, the speed entered is
length - √(length^2 – 4*(wanted distance) )
2
(does not work for blocks with very high speed and short length).
It is usually easier just to guess, but this might be useful for some stuff.
