From this topic:

SuperLem: The only skill that directly follows your mouse. Yes, it does add execution difficulty without requiring the fan. But if a player is good at handling this, especially with pausing / framestepping etc., it can single-handedly break a lot of levels, I would assume. Probably too overpowered. Keep in mind it can also be used like a Walker / Jumper / Shimmier to cancel other skills. That alone is enough to make Walkers one of the most powerful skills.

From this topic:

Diver: Basically just a fancy Jumper, if implemented as in L2. What would be a lot more interesting, though, is if it could be assigned to a Swimmer to make him go down in a water pond, without requiring a ceiling of terrain to do so.

GigaLem, from Discord:

I feel for slx, there should be a file post and preview screens that show what the color of the font for what part changes it to, and you can change it by looking through the text file and changing its color code

From this topic:

a ruler (for the editor) on long timed bombers take to go down a number (this means one would apply to the various means of movement)

From various sources:

consider bringing back slowfreeze, which is essentially assigning a stoner countdown to lemmings but in the form of an object, as well as radiation (same as slowfreeze except the lemming turns into a bomber instead).
I saw and have played plenty of excellent puzzles featuring them from both Strato and Gigalems' packs. Not to mention that it would also be possible to clone timed bombers from radiation in addition to those assigned the timed bomber skill

I'd like to see ... slowfreeze and radiation back. It would be great to play those old packs with those skills in high-res and the newer bells and whistles. I've recently played some Strato packs with slowfreeze and he's really good at making fun levels with it ... (there's) one level where you assign a cloner in the center of a beam, then both lemmings fall off the edges and the radiation has them blow two exits. It's impressive.
we already have all the slowfreeze and radiation traps designed for most of the styles.
I think the disarmer has much more potential with radiation/slowfreeze traps too. You can let one lemming fall and freeze to save others from splatting, then disarm the trap so the rest don't also freeze.

OGG Converter is a simple audio processing tool that converts most common audio formats (MP3, WAV, M4A, etc) to lossless OGG Vorbis format.

The main benefit of this is reduced file size without losing any audio quality. Ideal for storing large quantities of audio files, and also for processing music/sound for your lemmings level packs!

The program is very simple: just click "Select Files" to choose the files you want to convert, and "Convert" to convert them!

Things to note:

OGG Converter is 32-bit, but should work on both 32 and 64-bit Windows operating systems - let me know if it doesn't.

The conversion process doesn't delete or overwrite the original source file (yet), so this must be done manually unless you wish to keep both files.

Supported formats: Unfortunately, MOD and IT formats currently aren't supported due to either not being able to load, or errors during the conversion process. The most common audio formats, such as WAV, MP3, M4A, AAC and FLAC should all work just fine.

Please let me know if you have any questions or issues.

DISCLAIMER: Whilst I have done my best to fully test this program before releasing it, I cannot make any guarantees about its stability at this early stage in its development. It's best to backup your files first before processing them using this tool, and then check that the resulting files work correctly before deleting the originals (should you wish to do so). I cannot accept any responsibility whatsoever for any loss of data you may experience as a result of using this tool.

From this topic - the bug being reported is that assigning a new skill in "Blue R" (Replay Insert) mode silently overwrites any other skill assignments to other lems on that frame. I usually get around it by framestepping forwards and backwards to make sure I'm not going to overwrite an assignment, but - when I think about it - that's a pretty naff thing to have to do.

So, my thoughts are that one of 2 things should happen here, and one of them will be added to the SuperLemmix wish list in due course:

1) The old assignment should be detected, and the new assignment shouldn't be allowed. Now that we have the Assign Fail sound, this sound can be used here to signify that there is some reason the assignment can't be performed on that frame. An onscreen graphic saying "there is already an assignment on this frame" could also be helpful.

2) Both assignments should be allowed. Since Namida has described this as a "change of ... magnitude", I imagine that either it's something that will take a lot of time and effort to implement, or something that could open up the engine to a lot of bugs, or something that just isn't easy to figure out how to do. Since I'm now more familiar with the codebase, I know a bit more about how the replay system works, but not enough to take on something like this without a bit of help.

So, it's really a case of - which do we prefer?

If the former, I can't imagine that being too difficult to set up. Create a new flag whenever a successful assignment is made, and then check for that flag when making new assignments in Replay Insert mode - there's likely a bit more to it than that, but I at least have some idea how to get started.

If the latter, then I'll need help looking at it and figuring out what the first step is. Maybe Simon and I can add it to the list of things we may look at together? Mayba Namida won't mind casting a quick eye over it - if you can get me started, I'll figure out the rest?

Meanwhile, I do need to find ways to make some of the game features a bit more prominent. Onscreen graphics is one way to achieve this, but I'm having a lot of trouble figuring out exactly how to do this. Windows "Show Message" is easy enough, but not very video-gamey. I'll keep looking into it, because there are now several aspects of the game which probably need it.

An invincible lem would, I imagine:

Have cyclic-colour-changing hair and tunic (like objects in Clear Physics Mode)
Be able to survive any fall, regardless of distance or whether a splat pad is used
Be able to swim in water even if not a swimmer
Be immune to traps
Be immune to zombies
Not reduce the skill count when skills are assigned to them (so, effectively, all skills are infinite for invincible lems)
Ascend out of the ice cube if assigned a Freezer

And, things I'm less sure about:

Should they basically take on all permanent skills, and so climb/slide when they reach a wall as well as being able to swim? Leaning towards "no" if only because the Slider has its odd physics limitations that ought not be a problem for an invincible lem
How should the invincibility state be limited? Time would be one way, but perhaps invincible lems can't exit?
Should they ignore blockers?
If assigned a (time)bomber, should they "explode" (creating a crater), but not actually explode, and instead carry on walking? Or, should they die? Or, should they be non-bomber-assignable?
How should the state begin? A collectible item within the level that only affects the lem who collects it? Assignable by the player after the ability to assign invincibility has been obtained somehow? Assigned via an invincibility-assigning object?
Should they be able to destroy steel? (leaning very much towards "yes" for this)

And, any other ideas?
