Small devlog:

To be improved:
Diagnostic - String debug issue.
External Detector could be built-in.
Removing flags for Variables.
Changing way Collisions are held.

Known Issues:

Java Angle issue - exporter bug
String object LAGS the game.
Compare 2 general values is relevant only to newest created object (issue with multiple instances of ropes, moving platforms and bouncing platforms).
Character is not able to go down or up corridors of 1 block size (design flaw).
Character not always restarts it's status after collision with Moving platforms (no clue why, yet).
