=========================================================
Patch 1.14
----------------
General fixes:
- The game now properly shows the 200 OOB random messages 11-50; also fixed typos and spelling with those messages (don't care about the grammar, but you can always complain to Technostick or Oakster).
- Removed some useless code
- Fixed minor GUI issues
Level specific:
- Fixed 'Half Pipe Dive' (Director's Cut): Description now says diamonds correctly (was gems) and added a missing full stop. In-game, there's now an In Bounds Trigger and start/finish pad as well as the super speeds have been aligned with the interior.
- Fixed minor triggering issues with 'Learn the Friction'. Water section's help trigger now displays fully.
- GarageGames Marble: 'Learn the Time Modifier' start help text now matches that of regular mission.
- 'Recoil Ultra Course' start help text now displays fully in both normal and GarageGames marbles.
- 'Gravity Shaker' now displays the author fully on the Leaderboards.
- 'Beach Party' accidentally had two diamonds at the same spot, so removed one of them.
- Couple of changes to 'The Tale of the Tall Skyscraper':
All help triggers that said who made which section were removed and replaced with static marbles of Phil'sEmpire and Matan's Red Dragon.
All moving platforms now have an ability to come back to their original location (crucial because at the very start of the level and a lot later on you were forced to restart if you fell Out of Bounds).
Fixed the movement of several moving platforms.
In Bounds Trigger height doubled (800, was 400).
Some help triggers were fixed to ensure the player sees them.
- 'Space Station' now has the spacecraft that sends you from the first half of the level to the second half coming back when triggered (the very last gem before you enter the craft has the trigger). The trigger inside the craft is smaller so players actually have an extremely high chance to get into the craft before it moves on without them.
Leaderboards:
- Changed some levels' standarisers and base multiplier scores so that newbies will not receive loads of points for crappy times, average/good players can squeeze a healthy amount of points and expert players will get a lot.
A good side effect of this, is that now it is actually worth replaying levels to squeeze in at least a second better because you can get hundreds (and on some levels, thousands) of rating points on every second you improve.
In order to get the leaderboards to give you the new rating, you need to beat your previous best at a level, or wait until those will be manually done by the Leaderboards staff.

=========================================================
Patch 1.13
----------------
New Features:
- Added an icon in the Select Mission screen to indicate if you already have the Easter Egg of that level.
---> Blue: Picked up
---> Grey: Not picked up
---> No icon: The level doesn't have an Easter Egg
- Added more of the '200' Out of Bounds messages as well as some new 'specials'. You now have 50 random messages and 11 specials to enjoy.
- Added a nicer and more harmonic error sound. We also did a CRC check on it. Just because we love it and we know you'll love it too. *cough*
- Modified the Search System:
---> Added a search bar. If you know part of the level name it will display all level names containing the keyword.
---> Custom levels will appear BELOW official missions and in a different color.
- Prefs.cs now get saved when entering a mission for security. This way, if MB crashes after playing several levels you won't lose anything.
---> You can also do it manually by pressing the F12 key.
- Added Custom Missions folders. When pressing the Custom button, you will receive a dropdown list which will allow you to choose which folder to load missions from. Just make a new folder in marble/data/missions and it'll notice it. It'll also notice any missions found in the root missions folder. Making mission folders in marble/data will NOT work.
- Now Leaderboards Custom levels will be organized in categories. This will also make loading levels and browsing through them much faster and easier.
- Added an Alarm system:
--> The alarm will be activated (at a default time of 10 seconds) for when the player is about to hit the par time. A message will be displayed, warning the player about how much time he has left.
--> During the 'alarm' period, an alarm sound will accompany the player until the mission is beaten or the player fails.
--> When the player fails, the clock will switch to a red color and a message will be displayed, notifying the player on his failure to complete the mission within the given par time.
--> During Time Modifier periods, Starting Sequence and after the level is beaten, the clock will turn Green color to indicate that it stopped.
--> Players may modify when the alarm will sound. Simply go to a mission file and add the line, AlarmStartTime = "15"; . The number can be changed to the player's desire. In this example, the Alarm will start sounding 15 seconds before the par time. Note that unlike other mission values which count in milliseconds, the alarm is the only one to use WHOLE SECONDS in its value.
- Added an orange color to a lot, lot of things.
- New credits picture when you exit the game.
Removed:
- LoadingGui.gui.dso in the common/ui folder. CRC updated by having it removed.
- Disabled Statistics in Custom.
General fixes:
- Fixed MBG Statistics Page.
- Fixed the 2nd splash screen with proper English. "In association with" and not "with association with".
- Fixed a typo in the manual (Page 24 had the word 'aand' instead of 'and').
- Welcome screen showed 1.11 in 1.12 instead of 1.12. It now shows 1.13 correctly (this patch :P).
- Fixed all links in the Manual.
- Fixed a bug in the manual where page 50's 'Red Color' was available to click on all pages instead of page 50 only.
- Fixed a typo in Invalid Password error.
- Modified the Jukebox.
Level specific:
- All levels now have an alarm time. Some levels were modified correctly to display alarm timer message (and alarm itself) at more appropriate times.
- Survival of the Fittest finish pad rotated correctly.
- Fixed errors where full descriptive sentences did not show up correctly in 'Learn the Friction' and 'Ground Zero'.
- Moto-Marblecross (not Leaderboards, but singleplayer offline) interior pointed to Leaderboards. This caused the Mac build to not show the interior at all.
- Thief, Double LoopLoop (as well as GG version) and Daedal Helix triggers/description said 'Gems' instead of 'Diamonds'.
- Beach Party's description had Defier instead of defier.
- Fixed Winding Steps. Final diamond's step is a unit higher than before. Leaderboards times were not modified.
- Morph completely fixed. The "playground" section's ramp will no longer shoot you back down and the final blue platform will now move much more slowly towards the goal (ends up a marker mistake). This also fixes completely the last section to the correct moving platform usage so the level now works perfect. Scores for the level have been adjusted to be higher (expert level scoring).
Leaderboards:
- Made the leaderboards able to display 1 million (and above) points properly. Made it look hilarious on Battlecube Finale.
- Fixed: After pressing the 'view a friend's times' and clicking again on the 'person' button to go back to global, the formatting got screwed up on all levels.
- Everytime you finished a custom level, the game went back to the level select screen and it said 'Downloading Data...'. It no longer does that. It now loads the data once, when you go into custom, and that's it.
- Changed 'USER' to 'PLAYER'. Sounds better.
- When finishing a level in the Leaderboards, level select screen stays in the level instead of going to highest qualified.
- Fixed a bug where the download button would appear on levels that players already have in the Custom Leaderboards.
- Fixed a bug where pressing the Demo Recording activates it and it stayed 'pushed'. Pressing it again to 'unpush' it caused it to activate the window that asks u to give the name for recording.
- Fixed a wrong bitmap image in the total and general ratings boards. It was on 'select' instead of 'okay'.
- Fixed the Next/Prev buttons behaviour in Leaderboards.
- Fixed a bug about Game/Difficulty not resetting when going in and out of Leaderboards.
- Changed other things. Go figure.

- Checkpoint triggers bug is now fixed (the marble was restarting atthe trigger, not the actual checkpoint dts).
- Ctrl+L (The one that creates an automatic level picture for a levelin the level selection screen) now created a PNG file rather than JPG.This fixes the bug where game crashed when a JPG was put rather thanPNG.
- Statistics and Achievement GUIs no longer have an 'Apply' button.It's now 'OK'.
