    Great to hear you like it.
    The inverted corner is a good idea, I will put it in.

    What is a 'platform block'?

    I just created this level with the editor.
    I like it:

    Ah... the bridge segment.

    That is kinda tricky to put in, mainly because the bridgesegment is larger than the cell size of the grid. If the surrounding cells are not empty, collisions will occur that can mess up the simulation after spawning the world.

    Found it, if I follow the link through my iPad it auto-starts in the editor.
    Thanks, great level!!

    Win-conditions

    Bram,

    I'm currently finishing my new level. If finished I will share it with you.

    Isn't is possible to create a win-condition with the green/red tower elements? No 'success' if I place them on an unloading spot in the level.

    Regards,

    Ah, Sorry... yes, the green/red containers have no win condition attached to them. I guess it would be better if they are treated the same as crates.

    Please find hereby my latest design "Stadion": https://www.icloud.com/documents/dl/?p=09&t=BAJTYtgoPf0vD2Ugbi4BI3J53W1oEpUXTsYB

    I've included 3 different win-conditions in this single level:
    -create goals with the 8 crates you'll find (4 unloading spots)
    -park your crane on the landing spot
    -get the ball through the hoop of the basket

    Hope you like! enjoy playing and I'm looking forward to your feedback.

    Regards

    When I click your link, I get:
    "An error has occurred."
    "There was a problem downloading the requested file. Try again later."

    I have no idea whether Apple is having problems, I made a mistake in my code, or you made a mistake with the URL.

    Your URL looks good though, it has the same nr of characters as the one I shared recently, and which is working for me:
    https://www.icloud.com/documents/dl/?p=08&t=BAISAxonXCEVrer5AvEBrr5oiB5IkWerS7QB

    Maybe someone else can try, and see if it works for them?

    Lastly, I can only suggest trying export again, you should get a new url I think.

    If I try to push the "share with friend" button again, there is no reaction of the app.. Strange
    Maybe it is a good idea to put the "delete" button a little bit further than the "share" button in a next release? It's risky to touch the delete button when you're trying to share your design. Maybe also a confirm box "you really sure you would like to delete?"?

    In attachment print-screen of my design; I try to share again later.

    Grtz,
    Laurent

    You managed to build the goals of the stadium using the crates? Also Found the landing spot for the crane?

    Bram,

    Do you think it is possible to add a "water-block" to the game? The water should float if not surrounded by blocks.

    Balls and wooden crates could float onto the water. It would be very nice for the game if you could ad this in a next update :)

    Do not hesitate to contact me if you 'd like to discuss my idea.

    Grtz,

    That depends on how quickly Apple will review it. I expect it in 5 days or so.

    4.2 released with nasty bug

    V4.3 of the game is now available, which fixes the user-created content loading bug introduced in 4.2.
