Post any bugs you find here. But there aren't as many bugs that are really bugs and I don't already know about than when this first started, so also use this as a general conversation save, or to ask / tell me anything. #1 most commented save in tpt!

    ctype used to mean clone type (I think, because clone is the first element that used it). Now it's really just another variable used for anything. I don't know why it uses ctype and not something less strange like tmp though, but there's no point in changing it now. It just uses ctype to determine color and behavior, and just happens to get displayed in the HUD as DUST and WATR instead of 1 and 2. ctype is really an integer, not a string. The hud only converts the element id to a name.

    @jacob1, question, how come when wire is sparked, the blue sprk has a ctype of dust, and the orange sprk has a ctype of water?

    yeah, it goes back almost right away, maybe after like 5-10 minutes at most. If it's private it won't be on front page no matter what, even if it's featured or promoted. And if you are banned permanently, all your saves are made private (they still exist though), which is what I accidentally did to cj646464.

    Yes, when I was banned, all hell broke loose between me and jacob1, it will most likely return within ten minutes of republishing.

    question, if a front page save is made private, will it be fp again if republished? just asking.

    private saves are accessable actually, you can give the id to others so they can see it. That's intended. And was it made private now? I thought it was just demoted from fp. And i'm too busy to see about banning that user, I don't even have enough time to post this, or anything else i've posted on the forums... I still did

    Um...bad user..."tyrusgillyah1" has all stolen saves. I reported two of them but I don't want to take the time to find the others and get the original ID to report.

    Glitch: if you favorite a save, and that save is made private, you can still comment/access the save through your favorites menu as if it were public. I know because i favorited the "divcity" save shortly before it was just now made private. I can still access it.
