Subject: Skylabs and bugs

 

I suppose that skylab guardian type is, in fact a bit not very well-
thought guardian type because there are little parameters that could be
changed.
For example, skylab could be only eight-sprite guardian because every
skylab is animated only with all 8 sprites. Sometimes, I wish it would
be animated only with 4, for example sprites. It can't be changed.
Plus, no matter what animation number you place in the JSWED - this
sprite will be shown only in the first column. When skylab would appear
in the next column its animation will be = 1.
Plus making upside-down skylabs looks a bit jerky in JSWED. Try it and
see. It is difficult to explain. I suppose it will be better if it
would be fixed in 2.2.6
And, again, making single-column skylabs avaible in the editor and in
the engine both. If this will happen we will have thousands of
different drops, rocks fall on poor Willy's head, right?! =)
