crem's algorithm doesn't appear (yet) in the listings for The Final Barrier in the first post in this thread.  (Although it is included there in the description on the download page.)

Just looked and its OK now. Keyword here I guess is " yet " , I will admit it is annoying it not being immediately updated like the previous version, seems a step back. I will attempt to look at that.

Top work with the scoring/playing! 😄 , even the erm "A.I Bot" 😉 😄

I've edited the highscore table for Solar Power Generator to give crem's algorithm (current) first place for that cavern.  Sadly, crunchy_frog has fallen off the bottom of the league.  (When it comes to the crunch, they need to exhibit more nifty frog-like leaps if they want to be restored to the table! 😄)

I don't think it says anywhere in the first post of this topic, or in the download section, that the Highscore Challenge is based on the Bug-Byte version of Manic Miner (unless I've missed a reference to which version it is?)

It would probably be worth pointing out that fact, because the different guardian sprites in a couple of the caverns in the Software Projects version of MM might mean that the highest possible score is different?

It is the Bug-Byte version. 🙂 I half thought it was in the file descriptor but its not.

Probably the quickest way to fix it without changing the code code (to halt the game etc) is to simply insert the data from 45056 / #B000 from the SP version into the BB version of this, that way the game graphics (cavern and sprites) data will be using the SP version.
