Sorry for the epicbump, but a huge problem has suddenly occurred.

Colour Boxes no longer work for me, ever. Not in the designer, not in levels. What the heck happened?

EDIT: So it turns out that Colour Boxes will only go as far as a couple dozen blocks or so, even if their width is set way longer than that. They still suddenly aren't working properly though.

Would you mind taking pictures or giving out the code?
Otherwise it'd be interesting to know which version you used. Also if it's been downloaded or online.

Big thank you to FrozenFire who created this masterpiece. : )

Er...scaling spikes' size seems to scale their knockback as well.

Just saying: I think it would be better to post further bug reports on the Last Legacy website. Bugs are more searchable there, as in, each bug gets a separate topic, plus I'm not sure if Runouw still looks through this thread. There are already so many pages here with bugs splattered everywhere, some possibly repeated. : P (Awful pun, I know.)

EDIT: I would definitely agree that the knockback strength when scaling spikes should be fixed, but I'd like the direction you're knocked back at to remain changed when rotating them.

There seems to be a problem with the "Teleport Enemy" trigger command. Every time one were to kill an enemy, the command on defeat of the enemy that was teleported, would be reteleported even though it was not put in the trigger commands. Can this be both explained and fixed.

I don't think LL codes work with it, you need to do it manually. Your code is probably fine.

The "Easy Submission Boxes" are malfunctioning for some strange reason, and since there's no need to have an italic description for LL levels, it's pretty simple to submit LL levels without these boxes. (I actually don't even use them for SM63 levels)

Thank you, FF.

Nan's sig! From the previous Secret Santa event!: show
Rating standards: show
1 star: (0 - 5.75 in LDC) These levels need a lot of work. They're totally un-elaborated, and/or inherently flawed due to things like cutoff or enemy spam, or they're untested and there are too many bugs gameplay-wise, in short: Many many things went wrong in such a level.

2 stars: (6 - 9.75) These levels are not terrible, but poor. They're too short, lack scenery or they have errors and/or bugs but it's still barely enjoyable. Again, spend more effort and try to do better. (if it's your first level that I rate two stars, it's not bad. There's a long way you can still go)

3 stars: (10 - 12.75) These levels are about mediocre. They may be still a little bit short, the gameplay is fine but not very original and graphics are also solid, but not breath-taking. Try to keep improving!

4 stars: (13 - 15) These levels are nice, but not the best. Effort has been put into them, there can some professionality be seen in gameplay and graphics, they're a nice experience to play, but there are still things you can do to make it even better. Try to go the extra mile!

5 stars: (15.25 - 20) These are really great levels, those which, as said, I would give more than 15 in an LDC. These suffice many high requirements, and it already goes into subtleties if you want to make them better. These levels are successful all around. Bravo.

These are just general principles I try to follow when rating. Sometimes I don't leave a further comment when rating, most times I do, if you have questions about it, feel free to ask further.

Every time I set a planet's tipping properties to tipping, it screws up the entire level. The planet behaves like it would if you set the collision type to "None" and a few seconds later everything in the level except for the character, disappears and you can't move the camera at all.
