In this case it wasn't one poorly thought out action, but a continuous pattern of behaviour which needed a serious answer. Dirk has an extremely long history of trying to push other people's boundaries and use other people's artwork without permission, and I was one of them. Maybe he could have...

That's plenty impressive. Smart thinking about using multiplayer mode to prevent the bridge from tossing anybody into the deathpit. I know exactly why Arid Canyon is difficult - both the Minuses carrying TNT and the Snappers demand your attention - but what part of Egg Rock would have given you...

Ah! Apologies for the delay, but glad you had it mostly sorted. I know exactly what that last issue is - check for (ffloor.flags & FF_EXISTS) == FF_EXISTS - that should check whether it's been busted or not. :D

I apologise for not responding, I've been quite busy. See "invalid option"? This is telling you that "ffloor" is not a property of the sector. The "rover" you're iterating through is the replacement for it. So in this instance, you would replace all instances of "sector.ffloor" with "rover"...

backfront is a table, and that table doesn't have the ffloors property, only its entries do. You need to iterate over the elements in the backfront table, THEN iterate over that table entry's ffloors. That should resolve your error! I will also warn you that the else return will cause the loop...

I wasn't aware this was preventing its inclusion -- I've spoken to Nev3r and we've agreed to relicense the release to have both maintain and modify permissions, which should be enough to be compatible with your efforts in The Past. Please feel free to include it in a future update, and let me...

This sounds really brilliant, and would really like to go. Unfortunately I don't have the resources to travel to America on a month's notice at best, but it sounds like a great opportunity to pick the brain of the original generation of technically-minded Sonic fans and anyone who can attend...

I like that combination of pale grass, grey rocks and glistening water. It's a very appealing contrast!

This isn't a necessity. There's a MainCFG setting to remove the Egg Rock from the Evaluation screen and Marathon Run menu, and since before 2.2's introduction of the Ending cutscene, people have been making their own. I take it you're talking about the 06 pack - the creator simply didn't use...

Big wasn't just an April Fools joke, he was a thinly-veiled fictionalisation of the still-secret Fang. Larger purple character with a belt, new gameplay style, his own routes through certain stages... Literally everything in that AFD post was true except for the choice of Big, so if you want to...

As one of the original designers of the Bumblebores, they are literally just rethemed, respawning Jettysyn Bombers where the bomb it drops is itself. Like, it literally uses a barely modified version of the Bomber's SOC action to drive its brain. Even if the badnik's visuals are not a core part...

SRB2 is a fantastic platform for creativity, both of the development team itself and everyone who loves it. I've talked about this in other contexts, but the generational nature of these sea changes means a real nest egg of talent has been forming for some time, and it's been coming home to...

People have already responded to the bulk of your post, so I won't add to that pile, but this line did stand out to me in particular as something that really reflects the disconnect a critic has from the actual production of the work. To you, these maps are content. Fun bursts of...

The attraction shield found underwater does have a legitimate mechanic that allows you to take advantage of it. Try locating a nearby invincibility monitor and experiment!

Alternate language support is something that would be ideal to have, but would require rewriting a lot of code and adding a bunch of new graphics in order to have properly swappable strings with ligatures and etc - not to mention add-ons are typically monolingual themselves, and it'd be...
