Subject: Re: DrUnKeN mAsTeRs suggestions for JSWED (for John)

 

2) Similar to above but a modification on the traditional skylab.
Basically a mono column skylab, so it stays where you place it as
adversed to occupying 4 separate columns per sprite.

Patch vector code exists that does this; it's actually present in
the released JSW64 game in one of the reserved memory pages. If you
compare the memory map of JSW64 to the map of a JSW48 game that's

been...

How to let this work, John? So skylabs won't change their Y coordinate.

Interesting that all your requests were for enhancements to the game
engine and not the editor.

I don't agree with all suggestions with improving the JSW engine with
all these moving platforms, holes and such stuff. I suppose - it isn't
a good idea. It will make the JSW engine be something else and it will
probably lost all why we love it. Don't you agree?

John, you ignore again my question about JSWED.
- Why JSWED doesn't show every 8th sprite in the rows when choosing
among sprites for a guardian?

Very nice idea is to include a TUN editor. I suppose this imrovement

must be in the first positions in your "what to do" list, John.
