Cheers Freddix - getting to the hard screens now with triggers on them - here's the first of the subterranean levels - complete with moving particles and electricity (which is harmless in this version) :



Figure 1 : Electricity and moving particle belt working (electricity not dangerous at this juncture). The particle belt will change speed and direction too if you watch it.

This version available to download in the usual place (http://www.scouseknight.com/brucelee).

New demo version to download now - usual place http://www.scouseknight.com/brucelee

For the first time I am uploading something with known bugs - nothing major mind - an odd thing when you collect the third lantern making your player take hit from an invisible ninja sword (?) and the second is not really a bug but some AI tuning I need to finalise.

Bad news out of the way - now the good news - level four is now complete - electricity and moving particle belt ét all - plus the two lantern triggers which remove walls.

This has been the hardest level to code as it breaks away from the simple collect and jump model of previous levels - but there are only two more differences to cater for now in later levels so it's looking good to be honest.

A special thank you to Freddix for his pixel perfect sprite collision function - I had to go down the sprite collision route for the lanterns, electricity and removable walls so the function in the Code Snippets saved me a lot of frustration - and quite a few lines of workaround code too - thanks a million

I've had a bit of a disaster - my source code has gone - I was trying to split it up into sections and use #includes to bring them in - I created a smaller section to handle the level loading and array population and it seemed to save okay - then I noticed my main source file had been renamed too so I had two files with the same name in the IDE (it was Blue I was using) - when I went back to re-save it as the proper name it had simple overwritten my main source with the wrong code - I am totally gutted - I had the seventh level all sewn up and was merrily moving on - now it's all gone - I still have all my graphics, sounds and backrounds but no cigar.

The rebuilding exercise begins as soon as I have stopped swearing :/

Rest assured it's going to be backed up onto everything writable I have from now on!!

The questions of can and how have been answered now in that I know how to approach the game e.t.c. so it's not going to be as big as job as it perhaps sounds re-doing it - and I have plenty of shortcuts too now I have more experience with the language.

Soon have it up to speed.

It's my own fault - the renaming didn't help but at the time I was saving stuff I had a lot going on around me and it's so easy to lose concentration :/

Alas the version in there is very old - too old to warrant a rebuild from sadly - really appreciate the advice though.

A brave new version coming soon.
