Hi,
while I composed today's main
issue about about negatively-worded binary options, I thought about how namida and Nepster worded those options in the config file. Then I stumbled onto this bug on the side:
NeoLemmix 12.12.5.
The user options file
settings/settings.ini does
not persist the option "Don't Replay After Backwards Frameskips". If you check that option during your session, it will be forgotten after the end.
settings/settings.ini contains no line for that option. When you run NL for the next time, the checkmark will be gone. During play, then, NL will replay your actions after you've rewound them.
Expected instead: NL writes that option to
settings/settings.ini. NL restores this on next session.
(Other options save properly to
settings/settings.ini and restore properly.)
Who
needs the option to ditch actions from the replay on rewind? I haven't seen anybody ranting about this bug before. It looks like I'm the first to run into it, and I
only ran into it during the naming research, not because I wanted to toggle that option. Lix offers a similar option ("Keep replay after rewind") and Forestidia and mobius prefer in Lix the rewind to be an undo. Forestidia feels strongly about this in Lix. Thus, it feels like it makes sense to keep the option. But stay tuned over Christmas for the popcorn on insert-into-replay in Lix.
