MY LIEGE THANK YOU

Please. Great Master o' Wisdom, Wizbeard. Save us from our stagnancy

Bug Report (for Wizbeard)

• Title: Level 20 crash / temporary layout mismatch
• Version: superJumpDude-win-v0.6.1 (Windows packaged build)
• Environment: Windows 10 (10.0.26200)
• Severity: High (crash) + Medium (wrong layout after workaround)

1) Original Critical Bug

• Issue: Opening Level 20 crashes the game.
• Steps to Reproduce:
  1. Launch superJumpDude.exe
  2. Load save slot save1
  3. Enter Stage20
• Expected: Level 20 loads normally at the front door/start.
• Actual: Game crashes to desktop.
• Crash Trace (runtime):
  • IndexError: list index out of range
  • Call path:
    • superJumpDude.py line 497
    • world.py lines 444 / 506 / 773
    • levels\level.py line 955 (build)
  • Packager/runtime line:
    • [PYI-16564:ERROR] Failed to execute script 'superJumpDude' due to unhandled exception!
• Observed at: 2026-05-01 ~9:14 AM (UTC-4)

2) Temporary Mitigation Applied

• Local workaround: Replaced stage20.lvl with stage19.lvl content.
• Result: Crash is avoided; Level 20 launches.
• New problem: Level 20 now shows Stage19 layout and player is not centered at the front door on entry.

3) Likely Root Cause

• Original stage20.lvl data appears invalid/corrupted or incompatible with loader assumptions, causing out-of-range indexing during level build.

4) Requested Fix

• Regenerate/restore a valid stage20.lvl with:
  • Correct tile/entity array lengths and references
  • Correct Level 20 front-door spawn/entry metadata
• Add loader safety checks:
  • Bounds validation in level build
  • Graceful error logging (level + bad index) instead of hard crash

5) Artifacts

• Backup of original Level 20 file kept as:
  • .../_internal/levels/levelfiles/stage20.original.20260501-091459.lvl
• Crash-free relaunch after workaround confirmed at:
  • 2026-05-01 ~9:16–9:17 AM (UTC-4), exit_code: 0
