The title of the topic is pretty clear. I named it The Secondizing.

It's basically a hold that starts after the end of TSS's good end events. I'm making it while I'm gathering data to fill the Grand Library so as to not end up burning myself out on working on the data gathering. It's the second hold I really ever attempted to make, so post here for any kind of feedback. I test the puzzles myself and they should all work.

With the recent update, the last room is NT: The Entrance and some bugs were fixed. Also, I added checkpoints to EE: 1S4E.

Edit: We now have a Beta board as well, which I will mostly be using to take in comments for specific levels. I'll keep this thread updated with the newest version anyway, but if you want to test the hold, you should post so I can invite you in the board!

Here's an update. Things should be working well; the last room SHOULD be JA: The Entrance, but you never know with my level of forgetfulness. All the puzzles and scripts are tested by me, but if there's any unintended solutions or bugs, feel free to comment. Also, if you nose around with the editor, you'll see that there are quite a few rooms you cannot access yet (and you'll ruin yourself the surprise of finding them out on your own too!) but don't worry, for those, you're simply missing something right now.

Edit: R: 5W notably changed, so restore to the beginning of that room if possible.

I've been trying to chip away at this hold. I haven't finished Resettlement yet. But I do have something to mention involving the good ending of TSS.

R: 1E modified; I understand it's a very early room, but I planned for something to be behind it just now. There's gonna be something on the east of that room, yeah but it's not anything super important.

And oversight on my part. I'm actually just about to update it, so this came at just the right time. I'll fix that room so it isn't possible to just stand there and do nothing.

Resettlement demos attached. Very nicely put together so far. Will note that "millennia" is spelled "millennia", and I'm unfamiliar with "bround" as a conjugation of "bring".

I think 3S1W might not be working correctly.

I'm fixing up some Entrance texts right now. Also, I know that at the moment, in RoaD, there's a way to get back up; that tile will be gone in the next update, so act as though it wasn't there. Unless you want to test the staircase leading up.

Edit: And I forgot to make JA's stairs leading to JH. Imminent update.

Added a few things. Most of it is listed in the beta board.

Edit: I can't upload the newest version as it is 10mb due to the Emmett Plant music I'm using, so if you wish to test it further, send me a PM and I'll add you to the beta board.

And a triple post (sorry!) to notify that the filesize has been updated, meaning I can now host the hold here and on the beta board. As always though, if you want to participate in the testing, send me a message; the beta board has a thread for every level!

The main post will be updated with the hold.

I made a quick update to fix EE 1S2E because it was really broken hardcore, since I tested something in the puzzle then forgot to add room clear doors.

I'm not very good with scripts, but I'd really be interested if someone can manage to script Halph without having to use Halph himself. I bet Nuntar would appreciate it too for Bubble Wrap. The most I can manage to do is to make a NPC follow you if you bump into it, then to stay put if you bump into it again, but the part where you bump into a door and the NPC goes for the nearest orb / pressure plate to open it is lost on me.

AFAIK, that's not possible as a general use case.
