Hi Gang,
I have been a Wonderlander Fan since the game first came out, and I still download and play all the custom level ( I don't have talent to create them, but love playing them), but......

I download all the custom levels and play them, but since I am not the world's fasted or most coordinated player (fingers are getting too old) I tend to skip back and forth between all the levels in the level list which comes up when one starts the game with the custom levels.

MY BIGGEST WISH IS THAT the levels which come up when starting the custom games could be sorted by date - old to new or vice versa, in addition to them being in alpha order.

As it sits now, when download new ones I still have to go thru all the older ones I have not finished and skipped for lack of success in playing them or just skipped due to too many times getting killed etc., though I intend to go nack and try them again until I solve them.

I don't know if this is possible, but it sure would be a nice feature to have!
What does everyone else think?

Hi mpetva - nice to speak with you. You have been a member for a long time - good for you

I think your problem might be that you are downloading the levels all into one custom levels folder. "Mette the Marvel" has a website where she has put all the levels into "Creator Names" folders. So, for example all the custom levels that I have ever posted are all in a folder called "Lillian", and the same with all the other custom levels EVER created.

I was doing the same as you until I downloaded Mette's zipfiles recently - it has helped me immensely. When I download levels now - I download them into my customs levels folder, then, when I have completed them, I moved them into the creators' folder. Even if I can't complete them I also move them there to go and have another go at another time.

I would suggest that you maybe pm Mette - she would be only too happy to explain exactly what you should do. You don't have to worry about your already completed levels - they won't be replaced/overridden when you download Mette's files.

As far as the date order goes - this would be a great idea. I think only Patrick would know the answer to this! If I have completely misunderstood your problem - ignore the above - I am a nutter!

I hope this helps you

Just my system. When I download a level I put the date in front of it's title. Any levels I downloaded today have an 807 in front of the title.

One more comment. Now when I go to play custom levels. They show up in date order. Not Alpha order.

What I would like to see in the game are generators that produce baddies. I would love a generator that produces coileys and others.

I hate coilies, but love your idea. I think the mother ship qualifies as a generator for the saucers. And because it can be hidden under floors it is often an unexpected surprise.

BTW-I recently read a thread about "Wish List". Check it out for more ideas.
