BTW the 'feedback' link allows cut'n'paste ;)

Thanks, I'm able to reproduce the long word bug for the comment box. I'll fix that, although it will be a bit before there's a new version because I'm currently implementing animation, which is breaking everything. Actually, this comment box sucks for long comments. The scrolling is all wrong.

The solutions aren't in level files, but they're stored on the server for precisely this kind of thing. I just haven't gotten around to doing it, yet. Optimally you should be able to upload a 'cook' solution if you like, too.

When I was a kid, I had a game called SpaceStation Pheta
www.tandtsoftware.com\main\Pheta\Pheta.asp
that had a similar feature.

I guess the crash occurs whenever a single word is longer than the comment box.

It would also help for evaluating ridigity - sometimes trying to decide if a level has "many solutions" is harder than solving the level itself. Anyway, just an idea.

Hello Tom - you know how each new level file contains our solution when we upload it? Are those solutions still there in the level files downloaded from the server? Because it would be cool to see the author's original solution once I've solved the level. This would help us to decide if we've cooked it (I'm not certain if this level is a cook, or if its trying to psych me out - those other panels look pretty useless, I'm not sure what the intended solution could have been).

Blech - escape keeps crashing when I try to post this long comment, so I'll try posting it piece by piece. I wish I could paste into this window.

Cook: I only used the upper right quadrant of the level and only the two panels in the middle right, so I think this is a cook unless the rest of the level is a huge distraction attempt!

Cook: You don't need to put all of the blocks on panels, because it only takes two to actually get to the exit. (I did the two to the right of the player). "cheat" in the title is the only thing that makes me think this might be intentional; is it?
