Title:
Version:1.0 and 1.3.2
Difficulty: vary
Single player
obs: this level is an update to the 0.2.7 level "enchant" (now a broken cartridge, due to updates) which is still there because somewhere in this bbs there was a html test with the old version of voxatron (that I couldn't find the link) and I'm not sure if removing it will be okay to that.

So, the level wich I'll soon post uses voxatron editor as it is possible, and I can't use the editor at it's maximum potential witouth noticing some bugs, and I'll list them down here:
Item placement
The item placement needed for the level is not quite the exact thing, the real object in the game (with an static animation) is acutally a few inches appart from the position it should be.
Snow covering the void
I believe this one explains itself.
Not working portals
It seems like the wrong placement actually also happen with some two-way-portals making it impossible to go from one room to another.
that's all for now, hope this will be fixed soon but I would like a way to contournate that before 0.2.6
the ways I found:
Making two way portals with normal portals, using the character position works, since the normal portals doesn't have that bug.
don't place snow on void levels.

I'm having problems installing the 32-bit rpm on my 64-bit Fedora. I get the following errors upon attempting a "yum localinstall"

Hello there people! I bought voxatron last week and I'm really loving it! The fan made levels support is amazing, I don't know a game made of voxels that have this much help to make and distribute levels that were made by users, also, I loved the copyright related to the levels and obviously agree with those.
I also have a few suggestions that you may understand as questions for the future voxatron
Transparent voxels.
Something like glass would be nice to add in voxatron, it would give a nice effect to the room showing areas that the player were or is going to be, and if it's a roof, it would have the nice effect that the camera is outside the building!
Bigger rooms.
This is a limitation that is really anoying somehow, I wanted to make something like, a big corridor full of monsters or a puzzle in form of a cross, but the room is only a square with maximum height of 256, it is really big still and hard to fill the bigger square room, but as a corridor it would seem rather small.

Hey All
So, I'm finding the prospect of free-form monster design pretty exciting, and managed to feature-creep 0.2.6 all the way to what was going to be the 0.2.7 feature set. Sorry about that, level designers! (And people hitting the BBS levels room-zero bug). Here's a quick preview of what's coming in the form of some silly test monsters showing examples of modifiers, emitters, custom bullets, particles and new triggers.
These octopi are made by emitting particle animations from the head so that they look like solid tentacles.
Using periodicly triggered modifiers to implement regular jumping.
Disco blocks -- collision events trigger the blocks to change their animation, with a separate warm-down animation when they are no longer touching another actor.
Circling the player.
A monster that contains a randomly triggered modifier that causes him to be physically taller, walk slower, and emit bullets from a hat.
