[beta18]Palette Change Fail!

Click the link in my signature to download LOZ-Generation5-3. As while I just updated the quest again, I haven't uploaded the update yet. Anyway, if you play the whistle on one screen that has the Whistle->Palette Change flag checked, then leave that screen via a non-scrolling warp (such as Entrance/Exit), then enter another screen with the same flag checked, the third color in CSet 3 on that screen will not completely revert to its original color when you scroll off of that screen.

I don't have that build, because it's for Mac OS X Leopard, so no. Beta 18 can be found in Beta Discussion.

In the version of this quest that's available on my webs.com site, this is the screen where I played first the whistle for the palette change effect.

After I left the NPCs DMap and entered the Area 1 DMap via an Entrance/Exit Side Warp, I played the whistle on this screen, but when I left this screen, the blue color in CSet 3 changed to light blue when the screen was scrolling to the left. As while I have updated the file, I have not yet uploaded the updated file, so you should be able to find this bug. 😉

I have uploaded the final version of LOZ-Generation5-3 to webs.com, but you can find the beta version of the quest by clicking the blue link in my signature. I did a lot of rearranging for the final version, but the bug can still be found in the beta version.
In the bosstest.qst file, I saw 2 different side effects of playing the whistle on one screen with the whistle->palette change flag, then warping to another map and playing the whistle on another screen with the same flag checked

Play the whistle on this screen, then go to the screen on the left, and you'll see that the third color in CSet 3 did not revert to its original color. This is because the left side warp is set to an insta-warp (doesn't matter which kind)

If Link plays the whistle here, then goes downs the stairs combo, which has an entrance/exit warp set to it, then when Link plays the whistle on the screen below, and scrolls left to the next one, the third color in CSet 3 changes to a light blue color instead of reverting to its original color
