I always tell you when I'm doing something. I think what we need is a better method of communication. Maybe we can use the channel #LLtutorial on the chat or something.

Sent a somewhat large update.

EDIT1: I think Raz forgot to update the Credits section.

EDIT2: Since apparently Raz doesn't want to update the credits, I did it myself in the second post. Can a Mod please edit that into the OP?

Is it possible to move a goal portal to somewhere else in a level :?:

You don't need triggers for that, just click and drag the end goal.

Give the end portal a tag and move it with the ''move item trigger'' where you want it to appear later.

I have sent Raz an updated version of this for the new Chapter 1 Release Candidate 1 update.


Can I request the OP of this post to be attributed to me, since Raz has barely written anything for the tutorial since the original layout of the post, and because it's a hassle to have to send him my edits and wait for him to add them to the post every time? And also because he's not applying my edits to the credits section at all for some reason.

If you want me to contribute maybe you should, I don't know, tell me what I should do. I'm up for editing new stuff into the thread, but I had no idea the new update even added new triggers until you randomly sent me a update.

Also, if it's really a problem, I removed the credits completely. Everyone already knows that you and I made the thread, and that runouw made the game. There's no point in them.

I could change the topic holder if it's easier for you guys. But it really depends. I suppose the person who works the most on it should be able to make their own edits to it but since it's a two person project, maybe having the edits sent through PM like now is a better idea?

Just saying. It's your choice either way.
