ok well here is some levels that have been freezing on me lately for some weird reason
EDIT: levels have been updated added location to lava, and got rid of empty space, Still freezes tho...
If anyone can help me that would be awesome!

[Knuckles07]

^ I'm not sure about the rest, but I know Roy's Castle is hardcoded so customizing that level is tricky.

[MarioLuigi2]

Well i know that i have had trouble with lava in these courses in the past and i fixed them, then i left the levels alone for like 3 months then i tried playing them and they freeze up on me? i tried removing the lava altogether but no luck

[Treeki]

Try making your zones smaller; the game has issues with zones which are too large. (You also seem to have a lot of empty/unused space in them...)

I finished up another custom level, but my game crashes before the level even begins. It replaces World 8-Airship.

Edit: I did up another level, which works, but sadly the Bowser Jr. 3rd Battle controller isn't working.

Treeki can you list all levels which have something hardcoded in and waht it is ?
Would be nice ^^

[Knuckles07]

Random, I'm not sure but I think the zone of your 3-3 is too massive. Drag the top of it down some to make it shorter.

As for 9-1 I noticed that the pipe at the end of the level is the wrong type of entrance. It should be 'pipe facing up'. Also, pipe entrances should be located at the left of the pipes, not the center.

Is it possible to change how far the Koopalings spin inside of their shells before turning around? Just wondering because I'm working on a castle level that contains each Koopaling in a rather small area (each) and they get kinda screwy in their shells when I attack them.
I'm using the non-boss controller version of them (the tower version) btw.

I don't believe there is a way of accomplishing this short of using ASM hacks.

Attach your level so we can take a look at it.

I have been getting very acquainted with the Reggie! interface, but there are a few things I don't understand that I would like help with concerning Event Controllers:

First; I understand that some events, lava, and water, use something called a "location", it is used in the training level, and looks like a blue outline filled in with a lighter shade of blue. How do I make a "Location" ?

Second; the "Tile God Event" is rather confusing to me... How does "Tile God Event" work? I understand it can make or destroy tiles? A brief explanation please?

The location is done by selecting the 'Paint New Sprite Area/Location' option, which is the very first option under the Sprites tab. You simply choose this, create a location, then match the Location ID on the Event, Water, Lava, etc. that you are using.

This is how I understand the Tile God Event:
1. Set a Triggering Event ID (optional)
2. Choose whether or not it expires.
3. Set the Pattern.
4. Choose the Block Type.
5. Choose an effect.
6. Set the Width. (Must be at least 1)
7. Set the Height. (Again, at least 1)
Like I said, this is how I understand it. One common use I've seen is this in conjunction with the "Event Controller 'If' (Uses Location)," so that a path will be blocked until enemies are defeated.
Hope this helps!

To make a location: Click the "Paint New Sprite Area/Location" button, it's in the Sprites tab in the Palette. Draw a rectangle with the right mouse button.

Tile God Event:

Triggering Event ID: When this even is triggered, the Sprite will activate.

Effect: What will it do once the event is triggered, create tiles (specified in Block Type) or destroy tiles (all of then).

Width and Height: The are the sprite will operate. If any is set to 0 then it will do nothing, if both are set to 1 then it will operate just at the square it's at, etc.

Block Type: What kind of block will appear. Ignored if set to "Destroy Tiles"

Never Expires: When checked, the tiles created won't despawn even if the event is deactivated. Ignored if set to "Destroy tiles"

Pattern: Used for "Create Tiles". Ignored if set to "Destroy Tiles"

One more thing about "Never Expires": You can't respawn tiles you destroyed. The way would to use another Tile God, but, for example, if you put a switch that will destroy a block and another one that will create it, either set the swith to single use or put 255 Tile Gods along with 255 switches or at least as many as the player's patience can handle.
