why is the editor so fu**ed up. a lot of the trigger options arent even in the menu half the time If i want to trigger a flipmap i have to quit then restart or it isnt in the trigger menu.Also I finished building a really cool room and then went to conect it but it wont let me. Nothing i do will make these two rooms connect. both rooms have a floor level of 0 and ceiling level of 4. This is crap. I cant believe that this **** keeps happening to me. I hope we get an update or something to fix all these bugs that are driving me crazy.IP: Logged |

Hey, you think the editor is messed. Try and go to my site. Tripod toasted it. As for the editor I can't say that I've had this problem. Have you tried reinstalling it?IP: Logged |

I have reinstalled but it doesnt change anything. after the editor has been running for a few minutes flipmap, trigger, heavy anti trigger and some others are gone from the trigger type list. this is just 1 of the bugs i've discovered. I've made a full level and i'm making my second. But this morning it just got too much for me when it would't let me connect 2 rooms of the same elevation together. does anyone else have these probs? Pwhirl, I have 2 tripod accounts and i havent had any probs. i would go mental if anyone messed with my website.IP: Logged |

Hi BlacknileI assume you have flipped the room that you are trying to connect the new room to. If so you CAN'T join a room to a flip room. You will have to delete the flip room, join the new room, and then re-create the flip room. I know this is a pain in the butt but that's the only way to do it. You need to remember that before you flip a room you need to build and connect any other rooms that you will want to lead off this. Hope this helps.
Carry on Creating.

Unfortunately the editor is not bug free, but the developers had to deal with most of the same problems....here's a suggestion. When something doesn't work why not check the forums to see if anyone else has had the same problem and/or check the manual to see if there is any info specific to your problem. I know it is frustrating when stuff doesn't work but if one automatically assumes it is the fault of the editor, it clouds the logical, problem resolving thought processes.Oh, and this may be too obvious, but I know a few times I couldn't find some options in the trigger menus until I noticed the scroll bar.....
