Jes I got it with locked RR.   Used 85 all time. But only seems work out traditional layout.

I´ll Always play functional layout myself and then there is no hotkey to use that. So im not got that trick done functional layout. Have to use traditional layout got it done. Yes this CTRL select lemming key is must here. Somereason there is no hotkey with this when used functional layout.

Here is my Tuesdays progress. Warm up is over and real levels begins       Though i got some serious bloodlettings yesterday Step 2 Also Fun mode. 

My brain is still overdrived when i yesterdays play neolemmings 14 hours row.   So much less work a today and might need few days to recovery. And at this point i´ll play levels just random order. Here is  6 Step 3 Hard but Fun replays.


Level 1

Lemmings BBQ

Okay that was simple and fun level, always liked levels like this one per each skill and some nice puzzles

Level 2

Master Exploder

Another fun level to play. Also extra saved

Level 4 No completions with this (attempt 2 sessions and total 3 hours)

Rock A Bye Lemmy

Only level i´ll put some serious efforts a today, but still cannot completed. Its weird how cunning this type level could be, there is only few skills and those two builders need use to exit, somereason this level give me some serious headache rightnow, though it keep me interesting. I´ll look later again. I´ll might overlook some simple things. Though this board are quite vicious and its little bit remding me Crystal Cave level yesterday

Level 6

Recession Proof

Easy figured out, but this trick was difficult perform, let me test some releaserates and got it correct

Level 8 No Completions (best 40 saved) 47 needed

My first Crush

Okay no my favorite level, its remind me little bit level I am AT and also my own custom level I am MT, those level are just digger festfals like this. Find those setup those type levels are extremely tedious, though replays usually look cool. Im not are fan this level, but might put it some better attempts in future, will skip it rightknow. Saved 40, but those 47 seems really hard.

Level 9

Pillar of Community

Antoher level which was easy figured out, but this completion solution setup and releaserate manipulations was bit tedious and take some attempts

Level 12

Spiral Staircase

This level was surprisely easy. Though its take me while how to use this basher correct

Level 14

Bridge is Out

Quickly figured out one my favorite trick

Depends on the keyboard layout you picked for NL. If you're using Traditional for example, then the walker select key is ctrl (both left ctrl and right ctrl work). By holding down the ctrl key, you'll be able to bypass the selection priority and be able to select only Lemmings that are walking.

To see what the hotkeys are, press F3/click on Settings/Options on the NL main menu, go to the General tab, and click on Configure Hotkeys. The one you're looking for is "Select Walking Lemming." There it will tell you the hotkey to its left. Note that you can customize the hotkey to any other one you like, so if you don't like the default ctrl key for the Traditional layout, you can set it to something else.

There are also two other layouts you can pick from, Functional or Minimal, so this means the layout you initially picked isn't permanent.

For this trick you can't get to work, a good level to practice this on is Saving Two Lems With One Bomb from the Advanced Training rank of the NeoLemmix Introduction Pack. The pre-text even explains how to do the trick

As for tricks I don't like, agree with the basher/blocker one, and I'll also add the stacker/basher one to make a step in it as another one I dislike. It's far easier to use a miner for this purpose!

This goes little bit off topic rightknow. But this stuff is just very news to me.

QuoteThe easiest way to pull off this trick is to use the select walking lemming hotkey. This allows you to pinpoint the walking lemming you want to assign the bomber skill to.


Whether the release rate is locked or not isn't really an issue here. lemmings spawned at any release rate will bunch up perfectly as long as their respective release rates have the same parity(both odd or both even)

That explain a lot why i cannot perform it. 

Where i can find this walking lemming hotkey? which help me perform this style tricks in future? I´ll need some picture or video tutorials with this. Rightnow my neolemmings knowledge is not enough perfectly understand how i can make this in practice.

If you or someonelse neolemmings expert have video or picture stuff to help i´ll appreciate it. You can also send those PM with me.

Until then i´ll just hope im not got against such type custom levels which requires perform this trick with locked releaserate and without extra tools to help me.

@MASTER-88

When multiple lemmings are crammed into a small area, NL prioritize lemmings with permanent skills and blockers over normal lemmings. If multiple lemmings belong to the same category the one that spawned last gets priority. This explains why you managed to pull off the trick by assigning a floater to one of the walking lemmings.

So if you take full advantage of this behavior, you can switch the release rate between odd and even numbers to micromanage exactly how many lemmings(and which ones, in terms of their spawn number) go to the left with the rest going to the right. (However as you pointed out in the main post, constantly increasing and decreasing the release rate gets annoying very quickly. That's why I only made the level for experimental purposes and never released it.)




Anyway back to the main topic...

I generally prefer levels that don't rely on tricks at all and instead focus on sequence and logic. My favorite type of level is one that revolves around skill placement and creative combinations of basic skills. That said I agree that levels with cool tricks can sometimes be a nice way to spice things up   and they're always satisfying to watch when pulled off successfully.

Here are a few tricks I particularly like (thanks to IchoTolot for the YouTube links! ):

I'm also excited to share some new tricks once my upcoming pack is ready! Most of them involve NeoLemmix exclucive skills but some are done entirely with the original skills.(Stay tuned! xD)

Okay im not cannot got this trick done with locked releaserate only and without wasting any skills. Its requires me drop RR one point or alternate give floater let me correct setup use bomb.

How ever This video contains Armani replay, where he got this bomb/blocker trick 99 locked releaserate. How ever i cannot got hit that middle lemmings, its not give me any contact. Did i´ll miss some Neolemmings tools? Because i cannot perform it even Armani setup.

Let make show video in youtube. Show Armani locked releaserate setup and i´ll attempt it with this, but its not give contact. I can only make this trick when drop releaserate or let floater lastlemming. Then its will give me correct setup


Thats still mystery for me. This Armani replay is over 3 years old.. He really can make this trick with locked releaserate, but i can´t

What i did error myself?

QuoteAfter the blockers are set-up just crank up the RR to an uneven number. It doesn't even need to be 99 just uneven (I locked the RR to 85 in one of my levels.)
The RR just needs to be at a level that all lemmings fall into the same walk cycle inside the blocker trap - so all lemmings facing the same direction.
That should be the case at any uneven number in a extremely close blocker trap.

Thats news to me.  

Okay i have to practice that.   Tested RR 85, but im not got correct setup without raise RR anypoints. Expect if i set floater last lemming right before its goes hit land. Then this setup goes correct locked RR like 85.

Damn this is weird trick.

I precise we do not take any credits for the level design, this is all by DMA.

I remember that Present 29 "Private Room Available" was this level where you had to trap 18 lems in 18 small rooms with diggers. It was a pain to achieve in the Megadrive version with no QoL feature at all!

In the reversed version, the lems are preset in the rooms, neutral and other useful permanent skills, and you have to guide them to the exit.
