Placing Trigger Scenery at certain locations is causing my level to crash, but at other locations it's working okay. Anyone know why that is?

Nope... are you using the same exact tile, and the same exact event parameters in both places? If you are, I have no idea why location would matter.

(I will not be around for four days now. So you'll have to wait for future advice from me, sorry. D=)

Yes, it's the same tile and the event uses the same trigger ID... I don't know what's wrong. Here's my layout, with Z = Trigger Zone w/ ID 1 and S = Trigger Scenery w/ ID 1 (this is the only trigger I have in the level):

====================================

<table>
<tr><td>S</td><td> </td><td width=80> </td><td>S</td><td> </td></tr>
<tr><td>S</td><td>Z</td><td> </td><td>S</td><td>Z</td></tr>
<tr><td> </td><td> </td><td align=center>S</td><td> </td><td> </td></tr>
</table>

*what I want, but crashes JJ2 TSF*

====================================

<table>
<tr><td>S</td><td> </td><td width=80> </td><td> </td><td> </td></tr>
<tr><td>S</td><td>Z</td><td> </td><td>&nbsp;</td><td>Z</td></tr>
<tr><td> </td><td> </td><td align=center>S</td><td> </td><td> </td></tr>
</table>

*works fine*

====================================

<table>
<tr><td> </td><td> </td><td width=80> </td><td>S</td><td> </td></tr>
<tr><td>&nbsp;</td><td>Z</td><td> </td><td>S</td><td>Z</td></tr>
<tr><td> </td><td> </td><td align=center>S</td><td> </td><td> </td></tr>
</table>

*another crash*

====================================

If any of the tiles with the Trigger Scenery event on them are flipped, that will result in a crash. Make sure you didn't flip any of the tiles.

Ah...thanks for the help! The scenery I was triggering was an "Exit" sign, and since the two signs were on opposite sides of the exit, I did have one flipped. Guess I'll have to think of a different way to design this...

Thanks again!

Hi. I don't want to make a new thrade, so I'm writing this post here. I need help. I create a level. I don't know, how to do the anmation for "butt stomp scenery". I built the blocks with "!" on them and I put the "Butt stomp scenery" on the blocks and nothing matters, when I stomp on them. I don't know whether you understand me or not, because I'm Polish and I don't know English very well.

The animation has to be like this: a '!' block then a empty one and then again a '!' block in the animation. If that doesnt work make the animation with speed ''0''

In the bottom left window of JCS, click on the little empty tile. Then hold down CTRL and press on !, then an empty block and then ! again.

Buttstomp scenery animations consist of the following:
The first ! block is the one showing up in the level before it's stomped. The second tile (in this case the empty one) is the tile which will be there after the block is stomped. The last tile (!) is the one of which pieces will fall down after the block is destroyed. You can of course insert other tiles, to achieve different effects. Understood? If not I can send you an example level. :)

This is all covered in the JCS help file, by the way.

Hmmmm... When I put first ! and the second empty, the first is flashing. What shall I do?

Right click on the first one and put the parameter to 0.
