Observations - Sidescroller Tutorial

from Stardock.net Forums

Started the Side Scroller Tutorial ...

Some observations (bugs?) 

1 - After placing the Jump Thru blocks on a Tree ... and testing them ... I hit the W key to reshow the dialog ... it hung.  Had to exit, restart level (didn't have to totally exit which does say something I guess).   

2 - The HIDDEN block area is already placed ... you can see that when editing ... so I didn't have to do anything other than play thru.

3 -  When I tried to exit Game Machine ...  hung with Windows (10 Pro - 1903)  wait cursor and never exited ... clicked on window and Windows Dialog came up to force shutdown or wait.   Tried Waiting ... eventually had to force shutdown. 

4 - If remove or change a block ... is there an undo option?   Tried Ctrl-Z ... nothing.   Would be nice to Undo at least some changes if I wanted.

Hey JKFrench,

1. Is it possible that you pressed TAB while the dialog was up?  We've seen some weird issue there that will be fixed this week. If not, we'll try to repro here.

2. Ah yes, I see that now! We will have to re-upload that game with a fix.

3. Fixed for the next update. This is an issue with the first-time run of the game. The registration code was hanging things up. Luckily future sessions will exit nicely, and the fix will be in the next Alpha build.

4. No undo option right now, but it has been asked for (by me). We'll see about bumping it up on the list of priorities.

Thanks for the feedback - very much appreciated!
