R-Type Delta ... https://www.twingalaxies.com/game/r-type-delta/playstation

I created my first multiple tracks for a game title today. I was not aware that the previously "created" track list must contain the game name as well. Could you please remove from the track rules, the text Select ship: R13 Anchor Type, as below. The track name contains the ship type. Thanks :)

https://www.twingalaxies.com/game/galaga/arcade/rank-a-stage-31/

3 Lives :
Difficulty Rank A :
Extra Ships: at 20,000 points, 70,000 points and every 70,000 points thereafter.
Settings may be set to harder or extra men at higher point thresholds.
Your game ends once round 31 is complete and your score will be taken once the bonus points have been awarded.
Game can be played on any of the platforms below.

Arcade............................................ ......0
Mame.............................................. ......1
Class of 81...........................................2
xx-1................................................. ......3
FPG or Multi board not emulated...4

Fast Fire may be used but won't get you the highest score, same with playing a different rank, rank A is the easiest and will provide the most points.
Please report your score with the corresponding # in the 1's digit for reference. Ex you played xx-1 your score was 90,000 points you would record 90,003

Could you please fix the formatting so it reads more like the above.

Edited and still can't get the ........#'s to line up

Thanks

Could you change the minor typo of Carvern to Cavern in the following, please: https://www.twingalaxies.com/game/dissidia-final-fantasy-opera-omnia/android/?track=Carvern

Game and watch game Fire, shows up in the list of games for game and watch correctly however clicking on it shows no tracks here this obviously in error as a game requires a track being created to even display. i've noticed i could find others of my tracks when making deriviates as well (and not just cause of how cumbersome the lookup is). I could spend more points to restore my track, but i dont feel i should have to. thx.

well thats what i get trying to use the tag, heres the link https://www.twingalaxies.com/game/fire/game&watch-lcd-gaming

Hi Franny,

Could you please amend the track rules, for the 3 x tracks mentioned above from last week?

I would like to submit my performances for the R9 and RX tracks, however I cannot until the tracks are amended, and to avoid confusion for the adjudicators.

Thanks.

Hi Franny, using OOO's screenshot as just a generic example...

Any update on when the formatting issue will be fixed? When a track is proposed, the rules formatting is fine, but after it is fully funded and active, all the hard returns are lost as shown here:

Unfortunately, I don't have an idea.
That is a question for @admin staff . I know it's been an ongoing problem for as long as problems have existed.

Also there is this text wrapping issue:

I checked and the three tracks are now OK. Thank you for your help. May your next game be a great one ...

ok now i'm justly upset. I previously reported my "fire" track for game and watch went missing. I can prove i created since the game itself appears on a search. How can a game appear if there are now tracks for it? whatever, my report in socreboar errors got no traction, i sucked it up, i spent the 10 points and recreated the same track. now mind you, others donated 20 points, i dont know who they are. i donated the final 5 points just now. and wtf, the track still doesnt appear!!!!! "Fire" for the game and watch is frelled. at first i thought dave was pissed at me and destroyed my first track. now i realize theres just some bug. I created a second bug and at least two other people donated their sub points, yet that track does NOT appear under the game. I currently have a sub i'm waiting to submit. I've been screwed twice as a track creator. The other donators (at least two) were screwed. Please look into this. I realize this is a bug. I realize noone is systematically screwing me.but i accpeted the bug before and rolled with it and spent more points and now its happeneding again. Frelling "Fire" on game and watch is frelled. i have submission waiting to go. This is dren.

If a track was deleted or has gone missing due to a bug, you can always shoot me a message about it, and 9/10 times I will create it for you free of submission points.

I cannot fix the bugs you posted. That is a @admin staff only fix.

Thanks to sean's input on my simliar wall post i'd offer a few testing suggestions
1. try to create a track under " Fire!" (notice a leading space and ending with an exclamation mark
2. try to create a track under "Fire" (notice just plain old fire)
3. Try to create a track under "Fire! (ending exclamatoin no leading space)
4. Try to create a track under " Fire" (leading space no end exclamation)
5. Try to create a track under "FIRE"
6. Try to create a track under "fire"

if any of these results in viewable tracks it may help deduce the problem and solution

i picked these test cases because i noticed the game when you click on it has a leading space and ending exclamation point. however the game in the list is all capitals. and of course the url is all lower case. There seems to be some sort of mismatch where the system writes the tracks to one place, but then tries to read them from another. Sean has already identified an issue with exclamation marks but i cant help but to think this is even worse due to the leading space.

I see the potential issue. It looks like Fire! is already being used as a name for another game (Pinball) that is unrelated to the game you are trying to create tracks for. Since exclamations are not used in URLs the system is confused.
