Typing "!set type emp -" immediately crashed the game.

Well, a bit of an effect like in TTAN could work. As in make the cells blocked.

Click the "X" in the corner of the window as always? I don't see why you're having problems.

You can also press 'q' or esc. This would be the only options if you use fullscreen.

@jacob1 Thank you wery much!

I made a list of all the bugs people have reported:

Mouse location does not match cursor location in game
    reported by: cell-core
    Notes: Cannot reproduce. I have seen this bug in the past when first porting tpt to sdl2, it tended to happen with resizable window. Restarting the game would always fix it.

Game uses OS cursor instead of SDL cursor
    reported by: Daedar
    Notes: Not really a bug. I can see why it would be annoying if the OS cursor is larger in fullscreen but it's not something I'm going to fix. SDL1.2 forced it's own cursor, SDL2 doesn't force one but lets you create your own (I'm not doing this at the moment because it's extra work)

Game flagged by antivirus
    reported by: vvv331, david234
    Notes: virustotal.com says it is safe, I don't have an antivirus so can't really check myself. It might be an issue with whatever antivirus they are using, but I don't know which one it is. TPT gets false positives all the time.

TPTMP errors with "Attempted to call field 'set_shortcuts' (a nil value)"
    reported by: nukers473
    Notes: Update tptmp to fix this. This Lua function was removed in 94.0 because it's entirely unnecessary

Brush doesn't resize when scrolling
    reported by: janek123
    Notes: Can't reproduce

Can't place elements
    reported by: eriks
    Notes: Can't reproduce, need more information about what happened.

Support for non US keyboard layouts broken
    reported by: TheLegolas, Rortenda
    Notes: Can't reproduce. Except in tptmp, it is a known issue there. If the bug report only refers to it being broken on tptmp, that will be fixed during the next tptmp update.

Enabling fullscreen while "Change resolution" is selected freezes the computer
    reported by: Rortenda
    Notes: Can't seem to reproduce this. I also have two monitors so it's probably not that.

"!set type emp -" crashes the game
    reported by: neved1
    Notes: Confirmed, I will fix this before the official release.

A lot of bugs I can't reproduce, so if you're experiencing any of these bugs that I say I'm not fixing, I just need more information.

This is more of a question, but when I was testing the linear sensor, I used the debug hud and noticed it had a TMP2 value. If TMP sets the scan distance, what does TMP2 do?

Copy paste from the code:

// ctype is used to store the target element, if any. (NONE is treated as a wildcard)
// life is used for the amount of pixels to skip before starting the scan. Starts just in front of the LDTC if 0.
// tmp is the number of particles that will be scanned before scanning stops. Unbounded if 0.
// tmp2 is used for settings (binary flags). The flags are as follows:
// 0x01: Inverts the CTYPE filter so that the element in ctype is the only thing that doesn't trigger LDTC, instead of the opposite.
// 0x02: Ignore energy particles
// 0x04: Ignore FILT (do not use color copying mode)
// 0x08: Keep searching even after finding a particle

Also, since I'm unable to update the first post any more, I made a new thread. Here is the new one: https://powdertoy.co.uk/Discussions/Thread/View.html?Thread=23230
