but that would create shockwave errors, innit so? 8 and 0 both create shockwave errors. and 2 is an enemy :O

I meant those as hexadecimal ASCII numbers.
'0' is #30, '2' is #32, '8' is #38.
#e2, #80, and #a0 are unrecognised, unprintable characters.
HatPC reads the row "028" as:
00110000 00110010 00111000 (#303238)
and separates them (as I have done with spaces), into blocks of 8 bits (binary digits) - 00110000 (#30), 00110010 (#32), and 00111000 (#38). It knows #32 ('2' is an enemy, so it renders it as one. The other two make Shockwave errors (weirdly).
On the other hand, the cross is UTF-8, and so is defined with 3 bytes instead of 1. HatPC reads the single cross character as:
11100010 10000000 10100000 (#e280a0)
and instead of reading it as a single character, separates it into blocks of 8 bits - 11100010 (#e2), 10000000 (#80), and 10100000 (#a0). These don't match to any of its valid objects, so it renders them as fake crates.
Make sense? | | shos |

oh I understand. well, this would be a nice trick if we could use a single character and the uploader got it as three, since that way we could make caves up to three times bigger - we'd choose the specific symbols so that the uploader WOULD recognize it, and then it'll represent 3 objects with 1 character...
too bad this isn't possible

I found alot of levels that are praised even though they really shouldn't be. Why?
The whole point of the praise system is to only praise good levels. | | Quirvy |

They're probably decent caves. As long as they're decent, they should be praised. It's the caves like, "Bubbling Pit of Doom" that shouldn't get praised.

Actually, I asked Quirvy more than a year ago if my RL friend (white_christmaseve) could upload one of his caves onto her account, and he gave his permission. | | Quirvy |

I'm gonna guess off of the top of my head that it was metal Meepit, because that's the only cave of mine that I remember someone else having on their account.

lol, sorry, I didn't bother reading any of the posts, other than Isa's. They looked uninteresting. But when Isa mentioned me, I just had to read his post!
