Wednesday 27th

Kicked off the day by fixing a small bug in the Meta > Collision routine which I'd started late last night (note to self: don't code when utterly exhausted!). The routine is similar in essence to the Mask > Collision routine, except this takes the Meta Data from the current Left Tile and compares it with each tile on the map.

The routine was easy enough to code, but a small bug in the Meta read/write routines was causing unexpected results; several jabs of the Del key later, everything was working.

The Editor is now pretty much in the final straight heading towards Beta, which was planned for the end of this month (I envisage a few extra days just to tidy things up and write the docs). Once that's done, I'll publicly release the Beta version - possibly with a few feature restrictions - to gain feedback and suggestions, as well as any bugs that people might find.
