Simeon,
Sorry, but I don't think that the calculations you suggested have
enough "universal appeal" to justify the time and effort required to
write a LTUS program (or programs) to calculate them. (Donald - what
do you think?)
If you really want this data, you can (carefully) combine the 'tab
delimited' outputs of the LTCopyHS.exe and LTCopyLv.exe programs into
a spreadsheet (e.g., Quattro Pro or Excel). You can then use the
sorting capabilities of the spreadsheet to isolate the HS and/or GHS
data of selected Authors and/or Difficulties. You can then add up
selected sub-sets of the data using the summation functions of the
spreadsheet.
Your suggestion HAS GIVEN me the idea to add a LTUS program to
create single Author .lvl files (e.g., Simeon.lvl) by extracting
their levels from the regular .lvl files (LaserTank.lvl,
Challenge-I.lvl, etc.). Thanks. I'll start on this program after I
upload the latest LTUS revisions (coming soon, Donald).
Harvey
P.S.: Many of your levels are EXCELLENT - I really enjoy solving (or
trying to solve) them - Thanks again.
