On a totally unrelated note, the crumbling floors in JSW64. Anybody know how to set these up so they actually crumble instead of just
vanishing? I had this prob whilst trying to edit Manic Miner a long time ago too so I figured it must be something I'm doing, and not a prob with the software.

Quick answer:

You need to make sure there's at least one pixel on each row of the
bitmap graphic for the crumbling floor. The exclusion is the bottom
row which may be blank. The game scrolls the graphics down and
checks for a blank line on the bottom of the character, at which
point it wipes it, hence the vanishing floors in some designs.
