Also, is the shrubling blockade on the bottom path after the first time you leave that map (in any direction) intentional?
Actually no. It seems like the move event command is temporary, and I need to string some things up the other way round. Urgh. They should only block you if you snuck around the Changeling somehow, and I think I can generally move that event.
Version 1.0.16 is now live! -Faulty tile on the map with the snow patch fixed -Faulty dialogue with Changeling and the Shrublings fixed -Shrubling positions fixed -Bug that you can't save *should* be fixed now -Bug that you can't move in the labyrinth *should* be fixed now -Bug that you're invisible after returning from the snow area *should* be fixed now (Do you want me to credit you as beta testers in the end credits and/or credit screen? Because I can do that. Just tell me what name to credit you under)
Saving works! Shrublings are still blocking me though. ((so I went the other way, and found the Alplings instead :D)) Gonna try again and see if I can figure out what I did to trigger the Shrubling blockade bc I don't know what I did differently this time. Hm. (I'm okay with not being credited I think, I don't even know what name I'd ask you to put & this is fun)
Seems to happen no matter what? Or maybe I'm just doing something wrong, but so far the Shrublings block the path down regardless of whether I've talked to the Changeling, said yes or no to collecting the leaves, used any other fairy rings, actually collected any of the leaves, and so on. (so to be clear they're not blocking my path after I've left the area once, they're blocking my path from the very first time I go there)
yyeah i messed with that event and it seems to have made it worse, will give you an updated version in a bit where that whole mess has been circumvented by different event locations. what's your thoughts on loreley and reed?
Saving bug and no moving in labyrinth bug appear to be fixed, as does the shrubling blockade. When you return from the snow world the Changeling's sprite is there but you can walk over it and can't interact with them. they're gone if you leave the screen and come back, though also, every step you take on the snow prompts this conversation, even after you've already gone to the snow world and returned, which is somewhat annoying this still happens when you go to the snow world again and try to return
Also, the sequence breaking with the second fairy ring on the third train screen seems to be fixed/no longer possible.
Polish things: you can't use the lantern (via the items screen) to pass over even in fairy rings or places like the snow patch, which seems odd.
This last staircase up to the Loreley's perch is impassible in the fairy world. some oddness with how the shadows fall on the ramp, makes it hard to tell it's there. more polish things: your hand goes through the chest, but you still can't walk over/through it
you can still use this fairy ring before meeting the Changeling, though, and bypass the first encounter with them that way (leading to the same autorejection of the leaf quest as before)
you can't use the lantern atop the fairy rings because the lantern is a huge mess and is only activated in certain areas because i have yet to figure out a collision check that does not necessitate variable juggling and direction checking. the fairy rings were a workaround in the first place ::/ will fix the changeling in a second, i know why that's happening. i have no idea why returning to the snowy area is buggy, though, the error message points to the variable section of the interpreter and there's no variable messing in that area ::// the thing on the snowy patch should only trigger on action button, that might be a relic from an old version of that event. will see what i can do.
Also, not a bug, but stymieing my hunting farther into the game Spoiler: i've got no idea where to find the sixth leaf I got the one by the changeling, the one back on the tracks, the one by the ice world entrance, the one at the meander, and the one in the trees by the axescar.
oh dear, i really need to take a long, good gander at the save file script i've got running in the background to enable new game+, because i haven't yet. >>_<< -puts on list- the sixth leaf is in the real world version of reed's pond, to the north. also, talk to reed while you're there ::3 the transfer trigger should switch to the second event after one specific switch is flipped, and that looks like an issue with my conditions. i think i can fix that.
Spoiler nope, got the one on that screen, that's what I meant by "the meander" I did talk to reed, though. :3
... i just failed reading comprehension. hm. i couldve sworn i put 6... i'll check the maps and if i only count 5 i will add another one... ah, check loreley's shore again. down south.
aha! really, I dunno why I didn't think to poke in that direction. does lead me to another bug, though wherein that leaf sprite doesn't disappear when you pick it up, although you can't interact and can walk over it.
also, interacting with the Changeling here once you've got all six leaves seems to still just bring up the various "tidbits" dialogues
