Original Level and topic deleted by me. I didn't understand how copywrite stuff works before, but thanks to garirry, I get it now. I've removed it.
Also, apologies to MS.
Now off to make some original stuff. Time to pull some ideas out of my fron.

Does anybody know how to toggle a transporter with the general command button?

Command 3 and the colour ID.
For the reference, colour ID is 500 + Colour * 5 + Subcolour
A red gate with SC 0 will be 500, an orange gate with SC 3 will be 508 for example.
Also, I haven't really tried this adventure but...
Are you saying that you will be copying MOFI from scratch?
If so, I'm pretty sure that would be considered illegal since you are actually republishing a commercial game.

Are you sure? I already tried that, It just made the Transporter dissapear.
And no, I am not saying that. What I am doing is I am Making a copy of fire island, yes, but I will also be editing it, Changing dialouges, the order they are in, the actual levels themselves, Combining them, and then possibly even creating a whole new story-if I can think of one.

Hmm... I'm pretty sure that should work. Post a pic or something just to make sure you're doing it right.

So, you're essentially sorta "re-creating" MOFI but with different text and adventures? Generally, you're copying a piece of game that is sold and essentially making it free. That's still illegal though. I'd ask Midnight Synergy for his thoughts, but I think that recreating the hub square by square would be difficult. Importing each level would be easier, but again, that's if MS accepts again.

Oh, don't worry. I hope my message didn't come out as offensive. Yes, I think creating your own original ideas would be better.
