=================================
>wonderful design.
thanks:-) but some of the interier graphic and the man is from an old but great Amiga
game: Dreamweb

Yes that was a bug, I've already updated the files. ( http://oldes.multimedia.cz/rbox2/rbox2.bin
) Most of the level design (the files in %screens/ was generated automatically parsing
a very small bitmap (%map.bin is actually %map.png:) but the doors I had to edit manually
(it would not be so easy to write a script, that would recognize which of the sensors
(targets) will open which doors and to which screens are the doors leading to... so instead
of setting "w" as the main exiting direction for that door was set "e" direction.
I'm not sure if the automatic udate will be working, because I've changed the %rbox.r
file that contains the updating part as well... if you will have problems you can delete/rename
the %rbox/ folder and install it again...

Yes, it's better to save only at the start then to risk that you are saving bad position;)
BTW. The recent news from Rebol are really good and I'm looking forward. Just hope that
memory management will be improved as well, because sometimes it was hard to optimize
the code not to eat so much memory.
to Holger: there is some bug in clearing faces with rates... clearing the pane that contains
faces with rates is not freeing the memory as should do. You has to hide all the objects
with rates first and then to clear the pane, but it really doesn't look nice. That's
the main reason why the targets are not blinking as I had it in some of the first versions.
PS:
I should not tell it, but the game has no end yet (and I'm not sure if there will be
some) so the man will be closed in this maze forever:-( The main reason for that is,
that I'm not sure to where I should send the man in the end, and I don't want to continue
because it's not so funny to design the world as to make something new.
