Most guard types (guard, Jaffar, fat guard) in the game code have guard type value of 2 but skeleton has the value of 4. That was done to allow special events like skeleton rising and falling into a different room. But it also means parts of the code do not handle skeleton the way they handle other ...

I repurposed the demo level as a tutorial instead of the demo in the opening sequence and the demo mode that allows only to play 2 levels. The instructions so far are very basic. The demo level is now a short but complete level instead of just a few rooms. The first time the computer plays as prince...

I think it cannot find the "resources.xml" file. Do the "cd C:\Users\SSD3\Music\ModBestOf\PR-1.3.1\PR-1.3.1\src\bin" command first. Do not worry about the "unknown.xml" file. It stores resources that are not a part of original POP1 DAT files, like in a custom mod or POP...

The SDLPoP version with the editor is in a separate branch that is very outdated (v1.16).

Most of us use Apoplexy editor. https://www.popot.org/level_editors.php?editor=apoplexy

I submitted a fix that caused prince to teleport when hanging onto the left-most tile on the top floor.

Currently this this type of jump is very difficult to do because you need to be a full tile and a pixel away from a 1 tile drop. I played around to make it work over the entire second tile before the drop.

I really hope the site stays alive. It is the place to go for prince mods.

Unfortunately, I have never programmed in PHP and do not have the time to learn it.

That demo level looks great. These moves definitely open more scenarios to figure out.

If there are no issues with the feature, I'll create a pull request.

I have created a branch with this feature. It is a part of the enhanced mode settings.

I blame the spell checker.

I implemented an ability that exists in MINIMUM to SDLPoP. It allows prince to grab a tile from a standing or a running jump. Standing jump allows grabbing over to the distance of up to 1 tile. Running jump grabbing distance is a little over 2 tiles. The way to grab is to release the forward arrow k...

Here is some barely tested code that seems to work. The "looking right" block code of the "leave_room()" function. "Looking left" code probably also needs to be adjusted since the room now switches when prince is turned left next to the wall. // looking right if (get_ti...

The bug is Kid doesn't die even though he lands on spikes. The logic in the link below prevents switching the room when the last column of the room is a door top. But it does not do the same if the first tile in the next room is a wall (walls from non-existing rooms are handled elsewhere). https://...

It looks like a room switching bug. Can you upload the LEVELS.DAT file?

Does it work without spikes? Sometimes trobs can affect the logic like that trick with hanging on to a loose tile in the room above that puts you an extra room down.
