Just tried it on NL, and yeah, it's really not all that difficult to achieve there - though it would be considerably harder on Genesis, for sure, as the majority of the diggers need to be frame-precise AND you can't rely on the "place cursor at exactly the right position" trick either as the digger will be under the cursor at the position that would otherwise work.
My projects
2D Lemmings: NeoLemmix (engine) | Lemmings Plus Series (level packs) | Doomsday Lemmings (level pack)
3D Lemmings: Loap (engine) | L3DEdit (level / graphics editor) | L3DUtils (replay / etc utility) | Lemmings Plus 3D (level pack)
Non-Lemmings: Commander Keen: Galaxy Reimagined (a Commander Keen fangame)

mod edit: Split this and the two posts after from the NL Introduction Pack to Redux, as it fits better here than when these were in the former

Regarding vertical scrolling: even Lemmings Redux has been scrolling up and down just slightly lately, which I don't think happened with my previous computer. Could getting a new computer have affected this, or perhaps just the resolution settings?

Wrong topic to ask this, but hopefully the mods can move the post.

All levels in Lemmings Redux have a height of 160, and that hasn't changed. Are you playing fullscreen or windowed? What is your desktop resolution, and is it scaling? Check the "settings.ini" document in the settings folder, and see what it says for ZoomLevel, PanelZoomLevel, WindowHeight and HighResolution.

Well the reason I chose this topic is because there is a level that specifically highlights it, but someone can move it if necessary.

To clarify, the only reason I mentioned Redux in my post is because it contains the oldest levels in existence, but really my post referred to basically any level(s) that don't intentionally use vertical scrolling (such as any "remix" packs).

Anyway, I played around with the settings in NeoLemmix but I didn't like the other options, so I decided to just leave it as is. (I noticed the scrolling in Spotify is different on my new computer as well, not just in NeoLemmix.)

You can click-and-drag the border of the NeoLemmix window to resize. It will remember that size across program restarts. The dragging is the only way I know to resize.

Does your monitor/resolution limit your dragging because the NL window is already as big as it can be?

I don't believe there is a user option that nails the window to a given size. Do you think that would help? I've loosely considered to make a topic anyway about this because I prefer a perfectly sized window for livestreaming.

I already mentioned it: WindowWidth and WindowHeight in the settings.ini file.

Ah, directly edit those in the file. Yeah, I should try that. Thanks!

I have full screen turned on, but I occasionally zoom out with my mouse wheel during gameplay in order to see more of the level at once. I also didn't consider the fact that some levels are already so small that it's zoomed out by default. Anyways, this is satisfactory.
