An even larger problem <.<

I'm making a vertical scrolling level, and I need a Layer 2 goes up and down generator. But, I can't find one, so I had to hope for good guesses. Now whenever I go into it, the game crashes. Would somebody explain why this is happening and direct me to a good generator?
There used to be stuff in this footer, but it's all gone now.
if you're using the gray spikes (the ones that appear in wendy's castle), you might be looking for "layer 2 smash 1" sprite #e9 in sprite commands and generators in the add sprites window.

if you're using the yellow spike (from an autoscroll sub-level in iggy's castle from the original), then you need layer 3 smash, sprite #89 in special commands and generators in the add sprites window.

hope this helped. #smw{:TUP:}
My Inspiring Quotes on Personal Growth and Change:

"Resolved financial/personal problems equal greater growth!"

"The only constant thing in life is change; nothing is set in stone. The old is replaced with the new. Forgive yourself for past mistakes. When many different problems in your life are resolved (personal, financial, etc.), newfound strength and confidence is gained in the process. Usually, failures, lack of assertiveness, disappointments, incompetence, low self-esteem and lack of self-respect, financial struggles, and setbacks can cause us to change and take action to solve any problem, leading to increased strength and confidence. This you learn from experience.

I have been experiencing this aforementioned newfound strength and confidence myself for the past FOUR to EIGHT years or so, getting stronger with each passing year, learning with each mistake I make and becoming more joyful in the process. Because of this newfound confidence I've acquired over the years, finding my passion is of utmost importance in 2022! You can develop this strength and confidence in yourself as well!"


To whoever's reading this, you are amazing and you are capable of doing equally amazing things. Gather confidence and be yourself! Say goodbye to the old you and welcome the new you! It wants to arise every moment, but you don't let it. Learn from your mistakes and never make that mistake again! Find your passion and live it!"

No. That doesn't help him. He want to make a vertical scrolling level.

It was actually a vertical level with moving blocks, like the majority of Morton's Castle.

i managed to look in lunar magic; level E7 from the original smw, that you need sprite command EF, the "layer 2 scroll sideways short" or the one below which is "layer 2 scroll sideways long". be careful, though, you have to set the horizontal scroll to none or the game will crash.

or the game will crash.

The game won't crash, the layer 2 blocks will just not show up.

Alright, so now I can't find the option to disable only horizontal scrolling. All I could find was disable any scrolling!

i don't think there is one in the original super mario world.

No worries, sprite E7 automatically stops horizontal scrolling.

Though, didn't you want Layer 2 to scroll up and down, not side to side? Sprite E7 will cause it to go side to side; for up and down, you need EA, though I don't think that will work in a vertical level.

Okay, I found the option about 1 minute after posting, so now is the problem. The game doesn't crash, Layer 2 appears properly, but it doesn't go up and down.

Layer 2 doesn't move up and down in vertical levels
Okay, the problem now is completely different. Now I have the level done. It has layer 2 blocks that go back and forth, and can crush you if you are unprepared. The Problem is.

1. One of the layer 2 blocks for some reason, I can fall through the block on the far right side of it (it's positioned on the right wall.

2. The Disable generators generator, doesn't work with Layer 2 Scroll S.

3. I made a layer 1 block to fix the afore mentioned problem, while testing, but even after the switch, it still behaved like it was layer 2. It also, like the first problem, allowed me to fall through the block. Any idea what the hell is going on?
There used to be stuff in this footer, but it's all gone now.
1. check in lunar magic if there's anything in the way of the layer 2 block. if nothing, then try creating it again and see if the same thing happens. are you sure that one of the layer 2 blocks don't act as a different tile?

2. as Thomas said, you need sprite e7 as up and down doesn't work on vertical levels.

3. you should creating a new layer 2 to see if that fixes the problem.

i hope this helped. #smw{:peace:}

Only problem is Sprite E7 isn't showing up in Lunar Magic for some reason.

Try clicking #lm{sp} then pressing Insert on the keyboard. Type the sprite number there (E7 in this case). As a generator, is should be placed at the top of the level.

And because it's a generator for vertical levels it schould be placed at the left on a screen. (Usually you should place layer generators at the top of a screen, but unlike the others it's for vertical levels)
AFAIK, it doesn't matter where you put the generator, as long as it's on the screen you want it to start working.
It's easily the best thing I've done
So why the empty numb?
Well in the case of a vertical level as described here, you would put sprite E7 on the top of the screen you would want it to start working.
