KTHURA A remove feature has been added, but not yet tested
22:30KTHURA
KTHURA A quick map created for testing a feature I must add to the Kthura editor (which I forgot to implement, silly me)
22:27REMOVED
REMOVED Got rid of data I no longer need
22:23MAP
MAP I've designed the corridor of Irravonia's house. This corridor is important because this is where Irravonia is eavesdropping when the Fairy Elder (Feenalaria) tells them of Irravonia's condition
22:09ART
ART Brendor Imported textures needed to recreate Irravonia's house
22:04NOTE

21:42CHECKED

12:12MYSTERY
MYSTERY And how could code cause an out of memory, stop doing it after dummying it, and not resuming to do it aftr undummying it, without modifications?

10:46COSMETIC
COSMETIC I've gone for a wider margin, and let's see what that does....
10:45BUG
BUG The width's too great which can cause text to be generated outisde the screenborders, becomeing impossible to see, let alone, read.

20:49CONFIG
CONFIG I've set up a portraits table in the TextBox class
20:47TECHNO
TECHNO The error at hand is a result of the fact that the scenario loader tries to load pictures over GALE, which was the Lua API engine used in LAURA and LAURA II. This is not compatible with BUBBLE and thus also not with NALA, and therefore that error... So at least we got something that is completely normal....
