Want Your Unconfirmed Bugs Fixed?
Then you have to get back with the developers when they ask for more information, otherwise those bugs will set for another year unfixed.
Their job is hard enough without having to try and read minds, please give them your support.

I'm going to try and place links to them here, this is going to take a while, so don't think I'm singling anyone out, hopefully I'll get around to all of them sooner or later.
I'll edit this post and add them, if you see yours here, please respond with "fixed" or "still a bug" in those threads.
These need to be confirmed in the newest beta.
IF it's still a bug PLEASE give the developers the information they need to fix it.

I think the biggest problem is that sometimes you need a 2nd person to confirm them, which is understandable, but with bugs that are hard to reproduce, such as those that happen completely randomly, this can be hard to come by.

That's all the more reason a person needs to come back and confirm what the bug is and exactly what they were doing when it happened, so others, like me, can try and get it to happen again (reproduce it), then with that information the developers have a good chance at fixing it. 😉

Thanks Majoras Wrath, One small step for man, one giant leap towards a stable release. 😉
Give this guy some good reps folks. 😉

"Reset Room doesn't undo permanent secrets" - Still a bug.

http://www.armageddongames.net/forums//thread/94223/
"Tiered Secrets incompatable with FFC Secrets" - Still a bug.
However, this one doesn't bother me particularly, since I use Enemy Ghosting now. No one else seems to be running into it.

http://www.armageddongames.net/forums//thread/94175/
"FFCs only use CSET 1" - Fixed

http://www.armageddongames.net/forums//thread/94125/
"FFC sensitivity and Change in Behavior re: Full Screen Warp" - Not a bug?
This is probably more of a suggestion on changing how high-speed FFCs react to changers.

http://www.armageddongames.net/forums//thread/93999/
"Various Freeform Combo issues" (linked FFCS follow their linker off by one tic) - Still a bug
Again, this one doesn't bother me because I just use an invisible mover and attach my moving FFCs to that instead. No other people seem to be complaining.

http://www.armageddongames.net/forums//thread/94163/
"Multiple FFCs per screen still screw up scripts" - Still a bug, but minor.
This is actually the well-documented "this->" bug. ("this->" always points to FFC 1 instead of its intended behavior.) All scripters work around this bug by passing the number of the ffc in a data field, so it isn't currently a problem.

http://www.armageddongames.net/forums//thread/98029/
"Custom Item - Can't Assign" - Maybe fixed now?
This is the old "can't select Level 5 sword" bug. I'm not clear on whether the recent build fixed this. The only comment in the dev log is cryptic: "passive subscreen updates when you pick up an item." Is that a fix?

http://www.armageddongames.net/forums//thread/97480/
"Block All" combo tyle doesn't work on an FFC" - Fixed

http://www.armageddongames.net/forums//thread/97376/
"Sword Hit Detection" - Still a bug as of 550, and confirmed.

http://www.armageddongames.net/forums//thread/98317/
"Lanmola-related crash" - Still a bug.

http://www.armageddongames.net/forums//thread/98028/
"Carryover FFCs with scripts = unpredictable" - Not a bug
This is just quirky behavior of Carryover FFCs. I figured it out. Anyone using Carryovers NEEDS TO READ THAT THREAD though.

http://www.armageddongames.net/forums//thread/98624/
"Still can't use Swords Level 5 and Up" - Possibly fixed?
Same bug as above.

I will be getting my new computer in September 13th. So I will be confirming my bugs then. I am computerless until then, but I will go bug crazy again soon.

Guys, make your comments in THOSE threads with your bugs, no reason to put them in here just so I can move them. 😉
Make a new post in THOSE threads so it will bump it up front and I can get it out of there. 😉

But what about gravediging. Isn't that aginst the rules or i'm I thinking about purezc

Not for bug reports, DN is an Administrator and has stated repeatedly that bug reports are exempt. 😉
Those threads HAVE to be bumped in order to be dealt with. 😉

yep, the new Terms Of Service state that grave digging is no longer a offense, but it can under certain (most) situations be frowned upon.

obviously a bug reporting environment would be exempt from being frowned upon.

I've cleared my list.

beefster09,
Several that you bumped up, you ask other people to "see if they're still a bug"
That could take someone else hours to try and figure out exactly what you did to make the bug show up, on the other hand, you could probably reproduce it in minutes, because you know exactly what you are talking about and what you did.
If you don't want those bugs to slip through and be released in the final release, it's up to you to follow up and help the developers fix them. 😉

I've finally completed my first pass through the bugs in this forum, the one I started in May thinking it wouldn't take that long 😉
I've performed a mass purge of unconfirmed bugs at least one month old; they've been sent to Bugs from Old Betas as by now they are not very useful. They have officially "slipped through the cracks"; please do follow up on any of them that you know still exist in the current build.

You're doing one hellova job DarkDragon, today I've just been playing with 564 and it seems really stable to me over-all.
I built a 16 screen sidescroller just for kicks using the rocks feather only, and it seemed to come off without a hitch.
I went through my level 1 in SwanSong ~ Genesis, and it worked as expected, and I played around with several other things in my old Robinhood quest, and it seems to be working VERY well.
My hat is off to you and the rest of the developers for your efforts.
