It was a bug that is now fixed

Yeah I have learned that the hard way as well. I try to carry a small chest with all the valuables, and just transport it whenever I go between levels. Especially when I'm visiting a level for the first time. But I inevitably get lazy and stop bringing it with me, especially for quick trips to the world map. Then Sherry spawns on GC1 and I get screwed

Very nice. I like the idea of having the 64 locations so that non-coders can contribute more easily.

And that geography smoothing gif is fascinating. Is that the original devs' worldmap that it's charting or is that with your changes in?

Good call. I added a link to the wiki here.

It might be good to either add a Development section, or to keep the Development wiki on GitHub, while the game play wiki is hosted here.

Yeah good suggestions chao. I would also say at least one person who was at the first IVANcon should be on

Welcome to the forum and thanks for the suggestion! I think this is a great idea

Thanks for the nomination fejoa
But I will pass, just because I'm not much of a gamer, IVAN is one of the few games I play so I wouldn't be able to talk about how it compares to other games, etc.

I wonder if J_Kahvi would be interested? If not then yeah I would say one of the more active current devs!

glad to help, I was worried I was complaining too much. I really do like the changes overall. Now I still have to try out Atavus and Valpurus, if only my characters would live long enough!

You can disregard the carrots comment though, as I've played a lot more I haven't seen them too frequently

I am still getting a lot of crashes though

There has to be something messed up between our builds.

See the screenshots. Mellis is replacing something every 9 minutes. That has to be too often?

I haven't pulled your updates in, but even 18 minutes would be way too frequent

Update:

It also crashed while in the UT. All I had in my inventory was a lantern, the encrypted scroll, the book of Mellis, and a banana flesh

Update: after trying multiple times from the autosave, seems like the lump of banana flesh is what is causing it to crash.
