A brief history of the game
At first there was Midnight Mansion, now often called MM1. This game package was for Mac only and contained 8 mansions, each on easy, normal and hard level. Above that there was a builder included, so that customers could design mansions themselves.
Then there was Midnight Mansion HD, now abbreviated as MM1 HD for both Mac and Windows. It contained the 3x8 mansions from MM1 plus 3x a bonus mansion: Tomb of Princes. All in high definition!
Actionsoft's latest game, Midnight Mansion 2: The Haunted Hills, includes 28 mansions with a lot of new features. The 8 built-in mansions have 3 difficulties along with 4 extra custom mansions. Yes indeed, the MM2 package also has an included builder to create mansions!

Custom mansions

In the past decades several customers started experimenting with the builders. Creating rooms. Talking about it on the Midnight Mansion Forums. Sending their own designed mansions to other board members to test them. And finally sending them to the administrators of MMF.
Result? Nearly 200 extra mansions are downloadable from these boards and some of them have over 100 rooms.
If you like to download custom mansions, go to the General Custom Mansions Area (Mac and Windows) where you find the lists with all the download spots.

In the shown room Jack died because of the bird. His body was taken away by the blue bat platform. The wooden platform got removed, so now Jack reappeared like the man in the moon, just like somewhere in the past.

Do you think that it is possible to arrange that after death the blue platform is right below the reappearing Jack?

The other changes feel okay.

There is something really weird about room 16899. Please have a look at the image of that room in my previous post. Jack comes in from the left with the grey bat platform. He can't re-use that platform. When he dies due to the bird or by falling in the deep he reappears on the bottom floor from the room at the left. But as soon as Jack was on the blue bat platform (and before leaving the room in the upper right corner) any kind of death leads to reappearing a little bit right of the blue bat platform.

I checked the latter. When you move the blue platform to the right in the builder, the position of reappearing moves likewise to the right. Very odd. Or not. On a floor Jack does not reappear at the edge of the room but a little bit inside. Maybe that distance is exactly the same?

We both now that it is possible to restart play with a 'hanging' reappeared Jack, so he is able to jump to the left. So it works! And with an extra added platform somewhere close under his feet, it feels less uncomfortable. But it still looks like a bug in the game.

I send you two alternatives. One with a ladder, an other one with a sinking platform. Just open in the builder and start in room 16898.

Both are free suggestions. Because the re-added wooden platform is also okay and much better than without it.
