The reason I mention this, is because there's some discussion of a Pontifex Benchmark, and so, submitting benchmark results and system specs, a la MadOnion 3dMark, would be putting somewhat sensitive information out there that it would be wise to keep safe, or at least, if not safe, ChronicLogic must be able to assume all liability for any mishaps.
Standard practice really... I definitely would like to see some kind of submission scheme though.
The individual links could still break and stuff, and just have triangles start falling off the tube, or something. Or, perhaps just have a construction option for tubular steel vs. box trusses.
Thus, anything happening with Pontifex is most certainly pontifex' fault. Most peculiarly, when I left the game open all night, it was in test mode. But the screenshots were of a blank screen. My theory is just that pontifex doesn't, as someone else said, know how to play with all the other kids in the sandbox.
If you look closely, you'll see that the tower with more cross-bracing will collapse sooner. If you wish, you can toy around with my bridge
I god-moded the bridge to smithereenes, and only registered about 8000 broken links, but I venture to guess that there were a great deal more.
At any rate, after adding a couple more pieces of cable, I went back into test mode, and my level appeared to have only a couple cables dangling in midair!
I can only guess that whatever data structure was keeping track of my links got filled up and cycled back round. Deleting the links that I could see in the editor and then going back into test mode made my whole bridge reappear.
Hmmm....
In case you think this is my fault, keep in mind that I have 256 MB of RAM and a 1.5 GB pagefile. I don't think I'm running out of memory. http://www.pontifex2.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>
