<mark> (SPOILER) By the slider i meant for Ctrl +0 to work i needed to push the horizontal one to the right.
As it was not in 17 i called it invisible,when i did the level again i just pretended it was there Ctrl+0 worked.( Would have been quicker to just do 16 but i wanted to see what would happen)
<Dave> I think the timing of the end of the stick was about the same for me. but then I think we went through the system within a year of each other (5th = 1985/6).

What do you mean by 'invisible slider'?
<mark> (SPOILER) Fially got time to catch up with 15, 16 & 17 actually skipped 16 as i only saw one change.
Ctl + 0 did not solve 16, i never moved invisable slider out the way.
Must say these are some of the most confusing levels ever even though i done all 3 now i still mess them up.
I've had a look at 18 and i have a good idea but its just more going round in circles again,going to give my brain a rest for now.

I think i've had my best week ever on escape well over 15 levels 7+ thats why i fell behind.
Shame really as i did 15 so differently i could have made a mod,but 16 took care of it that i could not.(solution in back of mind for 18)
Really hated block pushy levels but now i don't think there so bad, "extraction" being the latest one to be ticked off.
They look so simple there's no tricks but until a week ago they were just to hard for me.

Nice to see Carlin Js appear,who in the past has some really nice levels.(about 50% done)new level was a bit to easy though.

Ps Dave i remember that stick you were talking about,not got many fond memories of it.
I think it was in my last 1 or 2 years at school they got rid of it.

<mm> (SPOILER) Right now, that new yellow floor seems very annoying to me! But I already like the way the bottom left compartment works, that's a great addition as it seems to make much more sense the way it is now. The level becomes more and more vicious and I hope I'll have time to try again later.
<Dave> Thinking 18 was inspired by the way I solved 17. Could not force that solution and close out the existing one, so made some other changes instead. Whether this is a good idea or not remains to be seen...

I only had a proper look at 17 earlier today. It took just shy of a couple of hours. Had I been forced to find Kirima's more elegant solution it would have taken a lot longer.

Quite a few experimental changes, hope they don't result in too much cooking!

Let me know if you think this is going anywhere. Kirima, please keep 17 up for the time being.

<Dave> You'll be happy to know it is getting pretty stormy now.

Solved 17 slightly differently. I have been toying with a mod but I can't get it to work properly and not entirely sure I can. I have other things I need to get on with so it'll have to wait for now.
<mm> (SPOILER) I just love rainy and stormy weather, and 17 degrees Celsius sounds just perfect to me. Have fun with number 17, you've kind of forced this nod and I just couldn't help uploading it ;) Good night!
<Dave> Temperatures are quite comfortable here (17C at the moment) but I'm not sure you'd like the persistent rain we seem to be stuck with this week. Roll on spring!

Haven't speedrun 17 because I haven't solved it yet :)
<mm> (SPOILER) Dave, it's getting very hot over here, I wish I could be at your place right now, I'm longing for cool weather! And I'm waiting for speedruns for number 17 as well! Wishing you all a hot and/or cool Sunday, GN MM.

<Dave> School?... I vaguely remember that... big building where old men hit you with sticks... (You think I'm joking?)

Anyway, have a good break :) PS. It's midwinter here :(

<mm> Dave, thank you so much for your explanation, I really appreciate it as I didn't get "it" at all! Thanks for ctrl-e as well, that's pretty interesting and you're right, it might be a better indicator for difficulty than actual rating seems to be.

There had been a 2009 version for Mac, but it didn't work, I can't remember what exactly had been the problem? I also remember having had a bookmark problem as well, that had been very annoying, but that had been years ago and I thought it had been solved?!

I know I'm missing the transporter animation, but I have no clue if there might be anything else that had changed? I don't care about animation, and I'm glad my bookmarks to work smoothly.
