The reason they aren't being implemented at the moment is that we only have a few spare NPC slots, and we are instead using those for mechanically unique NPCs rather than minor modifications.

The plan is to eventually extend the possible number of NPC slots, and when we do there is no reason not to add these options.

Oh, sorry, yes I meant after there was not a limit of 301 NPCs. Thanks.

Why?

What's the advantage of only allowing people who were online at a specific time to download it?

I mean, the full beta's gonna get released soon anyway, so....

Maybe it's a "marketing" strategy?

People seeing amazing things that has been made to SMBX 2.0 Beta makes they want to have it. But because they were only for limited time, they have to wait. While they wait, they see the features in videos, and make them each day with more want of have it. Also people tell it for friends or whatever to try relax the anxiousness.

But it's just a theory.

a smbx theory

I thought that it ws to stress that this version wasn't a full version that didn't have bugs.

Then why was it publicly released at all? Why wasn't it just sent to a pre-selected group of beta testers?

About the prerelease, it might've been a joke (considering the bugs like Klonoa not knowing how to go through a pipe) or some fanservice.

You guys are taking it WAY TOO SERIOUSLY.

You missed it? You wait. It's not like 80% of everyone here got it.

Seriously, that 'release' is half-broken. Asking for the devs to release it again means that your version will be obsolete in a few hours as soon as a bugfix comes in. It'd add unnecessary clutter.

So, how about you respect the devs' decision and wait like a good doggie?

Cool. I do have three things that I think need fixed please.
1. Magikoopa's projectile should sparkle
2. Mega Man's Ice Wall should have playerblocktop=1 like in Rockman and Forte
3. Mega Man's Rolling Cutter colors were mever fixed I think???

Is Beta 4 the last beta before final version?

It actually was fixed.

Also, will you implement the NPCs that require replacing another one to use as standalone NPCs?

Starman is now NPC-293 if that's what you mean.

Also, I hope that Kil's Phanto an Axon's Tryclyde and Fryguy will be refined (such as Tryclyde being weak to fireballs and Fryguy being weak to iceballs) next.

I don't know about Triclyde being weak to fireballs. But Fryguy being weak to iceballs, I see where that is going, considering Fryguy is made of fire.

There are some NPCs in folders that can't be accessed, as well as the Time P-block.

There are reasons for that. Those are not currently stable enough to be properly included.

Gah, I can't get to test stuff on the new editor, I keep getting the "failed to find SMBX window". Any help? The legacy editor's autoscrollin is broken.
