looking again its weirder than I thought,
player character is now character 4, and the game starts in the wrong room using character 4. I think I was in the character 4 editor when i made the delete.

Wow, I just deleted cEgo, Character0, and AGS of course change the numbers of all my characters... I don't refer to them by number.. but it messed everything still. I don't feel so bright
Can this be fixed? I think I remember reading 'whatever you so don't delete characters' someplace.

I believe it's when I run the debugger while I have a messed up function declaration in the global header (the variable didn't match the function in global script, I think)

Thanks, CW, I get how it works now. But adding that feature would be really helpful the way I create sprites 

@ Ryan,
do you mean to import the entire image, not a selection (I might be dumb...)

I am occasionally getting this error, seems to be liked to syntax errors in global header as I attempt to run 

Spoiler

Sorry 'bout that..
when I attempt to test the feature, I use "Replace sprite(s) from source..." and I get this message.

Sprite ## does not have a source file. It may have been tile imported.

have tried a few different scenarios, wonder if I am doing something wrong. Not tile imported, just cropped from a bitmap that hasn't been moved.
Thanks.

Good job Selmiak! This crazy troll hunt drama is just the reason why I'm addicted to this forum, woohoo! +10xp to anyone who trashes the "Triple-Troller" (as I now refer the Troll...)

On the topic of features, I can't seem to get the reload sprite form source thing to work. I presume the onboard manual hasn't been updated to help explain the new featues? So far its been pretty good for me,

Bug fixes:
- Fixed improper detection of external script modifications which would trigger when script is saved in the editor.

this has been a bit annoying.. is it safe to download the hotfix if I'm in the middle of a game?
Thanks guys!

I had better fire up my OCD and get on it so I have a decent screenshot to post. Looks like Soxbrooker is going for a win, looks really nice

This community and the amount of content it produces warrants the continued efforts to update and move foreword IMHO. Besides, adventure games are poised to come back big time.

Yah Anian.. your probably right , maybe my harddrive is failing ??

Just in case anyone is concerned about *my* problem
After like the sixth time Artgem crashed while saving, I found I could take a screen shot and paste at least a bunch of my work into paint (including a nicely bordered "Windows has encountered a serious error" box). Saved me much frustration, for reference although no one uses Artgem...

I find without the module the idle animation won't run continuously, always sits for a second then begins (once you stop walking that is).

Had this same problem and could find nothing that helped.
AGS version 3.3.0?? Hopefully if anyone is listening they could look into this?

This is getting heated! Woohoo, gotta get a game face on. No, wait, I mean, uhhh, my game is junk I'm not trying at all.
My wife will prob kill me by the end of this month. So if you don't hear from me in a while....

You guys know of any way to restore to a previous save on a file?  Twice now I've gone a long ways into the same background and while saving the program crashed and destroyed the file. ARRRGGG!

I'm two days into something... should fit rules fine.

 I can offer the partially petrified remains of an Apr. 17 2012 tuna sandwich and one previously enjoyed off-pink tutu, cancel your ebay offers please, if it helps to send this thread back into chaos.
Ponch, does this mean there will be more animations created for my favouritest lady-officer ever?? perhaps she will recover from that partial paralysis that left oh so much to my imagination

Running Man!

I'm in, just have to sit and wait until 2014....
Oh wait, I've got a game to work on!
