FORK BOMB: A Programming Game

Hey programmers, This is the levels batch. mtrivs asked a while back for leaderboards on the lessons and scenarios, and before those go on I want every score to mean what it says. So a few levels get fixed now, while there are no posted scores on them to move. Changed S31 IDENTICAL has a new map. It turned out you could swap rand(6) in the starter for any fixed direction and win 3 stars in about 2

Hey programmers, A small one. L32 told me their helper library didn't fit in a snippet anymore, because snippets had a 4,000 character limit I never mentioned anywhere. That limit is gone. While I was in there I found a worse problem underneath it, so that's fixed too. Fixed Snippets can be as big as you need now. There's no limit on a single snippet.

Hey programmers, This one's small, and most of it came from one review. Someone put five hours in, compared Fork Bomb to The Farmer Was Replaced, and listed what they missed.

It's a bit like going to fix a squeaky door and finding out the house was never plugged into the mains. That's why achievements never worked, and why print() and autocomplete from the last patch never showed up for you. Sorry about that. It'

Hey everyone, I'm Ellis, and I'm the whole team behind Fork Bomb. First, sorry for the quiet. I'm between jobs right now and working on this part time, and when the game went live last week I honestly wasn't watching.
