Hey,

As I was looking through coppro's modding guide (Link), I noticed a small error.

Near the bottom it says:
577-784: Slayer
While it should be:
577-584: Slayer

-Insane


EDIT: Thanks Mattcrampy.

Just for future reference, I find that it's nice to post errors like this on the "Contributions from Above" thread, because then that way you aren't wasting a thread and you aren't publicly posting an error which may seem hurtful to the person who made it.

That said, I would be surprised if there weren't a few more errors in that monolithic document.

I glimpsed the first post over on General this morning, so I assumed that line had to do with moving the thread.

Was it hurtful for me to post a simple mistake in your guide?
If so, I apologize.

Where can I find the Contributions from Above thread?

It's stickied at the top of the 'The Site' board.

Actually, truth be told, it's a lot easier for me to track article and site bugs if they're posted as a seperate topic as opposed to just a simple post, especially if it's a bug I can't fix the second I see it.

Oh, okay then.

No, I wasn't hurt at all by you finding an error. I'm glad, actually. It helps me prevent people from yelling at me. It's just that I would have posted such an error in the Contributions from Above thread. It's just a nasty coincidence that I happened to be the author of that article - I would have probably made the comment for any other.

Oh yeah, I posted a request in Contributions from Above for things to be reordered a bit in your guide (elements).
Maybe you could also post a plain version of GeneralTiles.tim to modify. I have one if you want it.

I thought this would be a good idea to also mention to the author.

If I recall correctly, those were ordered according to the way they were originally laid out in the default GeneralTiles.tim. I'll hopefully be writing a guide for TCB that takes things from an easier perspective.
