I am against Sequential Gems as it is useless and against bonusTime checkpoint reset for the status quo is interesting to take advantage of.

Impossible. .DIF format can't be edited or converted to a easily workable format.

@ MF : Thanks for the clear up, now i think i understand and i disagree, it would be like saying lets remove TL's seems counter productive, abusing bugs is why we are the best in the world... lets not remove these bugs then we will be standard

@ Xelna : I only agree with what seems good, any backup on my addition

Anybody else : Just remember if you are reading this you actually should input or else i won't be cleaning up when we don't get all the updates which you have read about and thought it would be cool

It's not a bug btw. It's something obvious enough that it would have been taken care of had any intention to do so was present. But I'm not complaining. In fact, when I found out you could exploit the carry-over of TMs, I thought that was really cool. The thing I suggested just then was something I wanted to see how you people would react to, and turns out it's not supported.



EDIT:

The one thing about my idea that makes it worth considering is the fact that you DO get to keep your TMs if you get them BEFORE checkpointing. Say you have a TM and checkpoint near each other, if you want to keep the TM, simply grab the TM before checkpointing. Depending on the layout, you may do this anyway. I just think it makes more sense. Essentially what I'm trying to say is that you can still exploit TM-carry-overs, just less often.

This is the last I'll say about this. If you guys don't like it, that's fine.
(I promise I'm done now )

Sporlo: Gem Travel: Epoch Artifice also uses another exploit I found for the checkpoint (for Ultimate Time).

Supermarble:
10) What green timer? The timer goes green at the ready-set-go and finish sequences as well as a Time Travel being active. This is a feature of MBP, not a bug.
11) What's wrong with the author names? Ability to display author names for levels is a feature.

Xelna: That's due to Morph being a new version. Not a bug. I just need to beat the level again in a faster time for the rating to take effect.

Sorry this is just a re-inforce because matan said i should provide reasons more than once if needed, also this was on the front page because i originally edited my ideas so i don't know who read.. this idea isn't actually IMO hard to include but it would be nice

Internet Settings / Config
can we get a button within the settings button which allows me to change the proxy settings, i need to connect from school which means i need to change it to HTTPS and add the proxy + port, this is just for me really but there are other people at my school and it would increase the members.

P.S did anybody else notice it was called Re: MBP Suggestions aka THORANS EGO TOPIC wonder why it got changed back i was famous... like Mariah Carey.. also... i had to slip a post in today... this topic is the only one i check guaranteed daily.

P.S.S - shouldn't it have been Thoran's Ego Topic, with an apostrophe.. because i own my ego.. don't i?

What green timer in the level editor? Isn't that paused state?

i own my ego
*switch*

Further to blasteroid's idea, a texture switcher that alternates textures of the same size in the interior folder would be nice. Is this possible in script or would there need to be an external application?

Texture switcher is a good idea - it would rename textures in the interiors folder. You'd then have to restart MB. Downside: if the game crashed without getting to revert the textures to their normal names, you'd be stuck with wrongly named textures and have to reinstall MB.

Any way to make a small app that would fix the texture names?

The need to restart MB is unfortunate. I suppose there is no way around it since MB reads the files only when it loads?

What is GT?

And it would be cool to add some new kind of achievement like to do a certain move in a certain lvl... like... not only based on times and such... idk if it's possible... I'm aware that this should be a pain to code...
And more achievements would be greatly welcomed

Sounds like an Easter Egg.

What you mean censored words? Like you can't say : ''Fuck, Shit, Ass, Whore, etc...'' otherwise you're banned?
