In SubTerra 2, the editor allows you to put time stops and save disks into shops; however, when you purchase one in-game, nothing happens (and you lose one gem).

Would it be too difficult to either a) alter the editor so that they cannot be placed or b) alter the game so that they work when purchased?

Not at all, I´ll write that down for when (whenever) I do a new update.

...For some reason Shoppe the Second isn't working. It always shows up blank even though there's something in it. I thought perhaps it might not be accessible until Shoppe the First was cleared out, but that was not the case.

Am I just missing something, or is this a bug?

Hm, that would be a bug, yes.

In light of this, which I posted in one of the stickies a while back, I'm going to suggest maybe you're using the same variable for both shops to keep track of whether the player has bought each item?

I hope that makes sense...

Ah yes, finally getting around to this.

Done as of the next release.

This does not reproduce. Can you post the relevant level file?

That doesn't reproduce either, and I'm quite sure my code uses six different variables for "allow multiples". Can you post this level too?
