Turtles walking in the air. Aging related problem?

Chocobobobo opened this issue · comments

I started the core and let the game run in the background for a solid 2 or 3 hours.
When I finally wanted to start the game, then, this happened:

20200704_174423-screen
20200704_174419-screen

The shellcreepers / turtles are ignoring the hole in the middle and are moving in the air, never going down.

A few things:
Fireball appearing after a while can still go down and kill you
Jumping with a turtle "in the air" above you will kill you
Once the game is in this state, there is no turning back. Losing and starting a new credit won't change this behavior.
Resetting the game is NOT fixing the issue.
Switching to a different core and coming back to this one fixes the issue (obvious, but still wanted to mention it)

I will try to let you know if I have more repro steps, but wanted to enter this issue for tracking purposes.

Thanks!

@Chocobobobo - it's been a long time, but some timing fixes were included in the latest release that might well sort out this issue, if you are still about please give it a go and let us know :)
