Topic: Need you to check something in Dracula's Curse for me

Between Fable: The Lost Chapters, League of Legends, Hitman 2, and work, I'm trying to find time to work on GMvania some more. While looking through ReVamp, I noticed all the traps, such as Crushers, pendulums, and all that jazz, are limited to three per screen, just like sprites. However, the spinning trap floors seem to be exempt. SEEM is the key term here. I need this tested.

The trap floors are tiles until you land on them, then they become sprites while they spin, and then become tiles again afterward. It's this tile aspect that lets you have more than one on the screen at the same time, but the tiles themselves aren't solid - if you delete the trap floor objects, the tiles are still there in the game but you can fall through them. You can't tell if the solid part is there until you land on it, which turns it into a sprite and makes it spin. The problem is, if there are more than three of the same kind of trap floor on the screen at the same time, what's to prevent Trevor from falling through at least one of them because the trap's not there? Or is it there and the limitation is it can't be drawn if 3 others are already being drawn?

What I need to know is if you can trip more than 3 at the same time. The only place this would be possible is the Castle Tower Block D-03 just before the Doppelganger, which has 5 (FIVE!) spiked trap floors on the screen at a time. I need someone to try to activate at least 4 of them at the same time, so all 4 are spinning. If the game is scripted so that's impossible (due to the fact you can't control how long you're in the air when you jump, which you would need to do to activate all 4), then that's fine. If you can somehow manage to activate all 4, note if there are any glitches caused as a result.

Remember, it has to be 4 SPIKED trap floors. It's entirely NES-capable to have 3 spiked trap floors and 3 normal trapped floors active (assuming you could even pull that off).

Nevermind. I cheated my way to it. there's no way to activate more than two at a time.
