Why were you testing with "no monsters" enabled? The demo map didn't have any.

This was around the time when only monsters could have master/child relationship. Now it's free for all, so to speak.

I'll look into updating the submission (for the second time) later.

In fairness, how could he have known it would make a difference?

Is it? The wiki page implies it's still only usable by monsters. It does mention projectiles of monsters, but only in that it will kill them.

I was going to myself, but if you want to, be my guest. :)

Good point! I see what you did, and it's very clever. Seems to work fine for me, so I'm giving it the OK.

Basically I'd been testing my custom map with No Monsters enabled, never thought I'd need to switch it to enable monsters for the test map.
