update hate

    I removed the 'Z' option (it's useless), but I couldn't figure out how to make a console one. I think that's why there isn't one already. It's not needed anyway.

    I also added back the lock icon for unpublished saves, but the server doesn't return the needed value yet so it doesn't work.

    I also moved PPIP to powered.

    I will look at some deco problems later, but I can't now. (note to self: effect not on by default, brightness not 255 by default)

    And all of these are only in my fork so aren't official.

    The console button was my suggestion. It was good for people having trouble finding the tilde key or being unable to use it at all.
    Everything you listed here was a change because TPT has been renewed. From the scratch. Every line of code rewritten. It's a new game. It's better, in many ways. It's TPT++.

    yes, yes it is. Forgot to catch that.
    It's short for "et cetera" in Latin, which means "And other things" or "And so forth"

    I can't stand the new deco, I'm staying with version 83. The only reason to update for me would be if the old deco was added along with the new one.

    If you could explain WHY you don't like it, maybe we could do something about it.  Saying "I hate it, I can't stand it, give old back" does absolutely nothing for improving the game.  Why don't you actually try to use the new one, it is actually FAR better.  It offers identical functionality as well as plenty of new things (as well as easier to add newer features in the future).  The only thing different for first time use, is that you need to select the SET or CLEAR tools, since the editor now runs with the main game, not seperately.

    I understand that it is better than the old one for precision, however I prefer the old deco because of ease of use, the fact you can quickly pick a colour to use and it is much less complicated than the new one.

    I would like to see both merged into one tool so that you can have the accuracy you might want but also the ease of use of the old.

     

    Newer players would prefer the old tool for simplicity, but if they feel ready they could try the new deco, eventually they could pick one they like and stay with that, or use a combination of the two, instead of being forced to use this one.

    I'm not sure how it is harder to select a color.  Clicking on the 'current color' square brings up an extremely similar color selection box.  The only real difference I see is that it minimizes automatically, which could be seen as slightly annoying.
