Jim,
The only problem I encountered is my old problem. I've had it since
Beta 1 and it goes like this:
I have a LVL file, right? I douyble-click it and since it's not
attached (is it named attach?) to any program by default I choose
from the Open File in... list. I choose Browse... and finds Laser
Tank 4.0, since I want to open the LVL file in Laser Tank 4.0. I
click OK. Laser Tank 4.0 launches. But, it can't find the Level File
and the whole program get stuck!
So I have to keep LVL files attached to Laser Tank 3.1, otherwise
I'll have to first open Laser Tank 4.0, then choose Open Data File
and the LVL file to open. This is very disturbing. Isn't it ANYONE
else who has this problem?
Secondly, the 'Game in progress, do you want to save the game?'
dialog box is a bit annoying. I don't really need it and I doubt I
ever will. Couldn't you add an option to for instance disable/enable
this?
Besides this, Laser Tank 4.0 is finished in my eyes. I've not gotten
used to the difficulty colors yet, though.
And look at the a in Anti-Tank on the splash screen, it's black
inside? Same with the e's in 'Finish level' below the Flag. And isn't
the briefing text for the Rotary Mirror a little to much to the left?
That's it. I hope your back will be well soon. Also good look with
the baby!
