Very nice. For not using triggers, this is very good. Though I must say it reminds my heavily of your attempt using the SM63 editor. Triggers do take some time to learn. I read the tutorial, but I had to do some experiments in order to actually understand it though. For any trigger/button, there is a queue. This has a minus and plus sign above it. Minus removes the selected item from the queue, plus adds the selected item into the queue. Select an item in the queue to edit it. For changetile to work properly, you need two things, the upper-left corner of the blocks you want to edit, and want to edit in. To select the blocks to edit, hit the pick tile box. Now mouse over a block outside the trigger's properties window. Click that, that will be the upper-left corner of what you will edit. Now to change it, go to tile mode and use select mode. Highlight the blocks you want to use, and hit the copy button. Go back to the trigger queue. Hit the copy from clipboard button. There, now when the trigger activates, the blocks you selected will change into the blocks you copied. Note that what changes is base entirely on what you copied. It is also best to copy before going into the trigger's property box.
I agree, Suyo's tutorial is the most informative. But I actually checked the triggers he used afterwards to see what he did. But I'm also a code geek so I figured a lot of it out quickly. But I'm still new at using camera.
Edit: I just realized how long a the last post was...

I hang out with Jesus.
Even though I prefer to go by Xero, nobody calls me that it seems.
