Trial and improvement. What's happening when you make a planet?

If it's turning out as a triangle or some other weird shape, you may be pushing the wrong button, you need to push the create block button. When you click create planet it will automatically create a biggish shape if the selected tiles aren't big enough. When you click create block, it will make a planetoid like object that will be the exact same as the block formation. Hope this helps ;)

Good Luck ;)

Guys, some items are acting a disabled. (A winter platform, color.) If it helps, it's near an Up-down transition. (Eff to whoever made the name for vertical and horizontal >_>)

Whoops... that is a glitch. I will fix it soon...
And, call them up-down transitions now.

Also, the best way to make a planet is to make sure it's width is atleast twice the size as it's height before you click the button. All it does is wraps the tiles you selected around into a full circle. (that is why if it's 3 tiles wide, you get a triangle. Three dots makes a triangle right?) Also, know that the height of the tiles you selected becomes the radius of the planet.

D: But you can't select just the tiles. It only selects it if there's a space between the bricks and the selection box outline.
Btw, thanks for the tip.

EDIT:
:awe: nevermind you fixed that [it seems o_O]
It doesn't work for a 1x2 platform, though.

How do you change Background/Music when you cross an Up/Down Transition?
