Subject: Re: Yep, a bug.
Just to clarify I'm getting this bug too, it happened on one of the
latest updates, AFAIK.
Did someone ask what WYSIWYG is? It's when a development tool shows
something (in this case, JSWED showing the rooms of the game you're
editing) exactly how the enduser will see it (I.e. the player ;). As
mentioned in my recent writeup here:
http://www.therealslimsendy.com/archives/retro_gaming_mmjsw_scene/jswed_thats_jet_set_wi.php
This includes timing too - you can see exactly how the enemies will
move and animate, how their paths interact, if they will collide. If
you've ever used the early version of JSWED which wasn't WYSIWYG in
the slightest (some of Woody was written with it), you'll know what a
huge different it makes.
