    I think you can have about 15 or 16 boards. The reason you cannot have any more is that we are already on the limit to what the iPhone can handle memory wise. If you use too much RAM, the system will shut you down.

    We have an idea how to get around this problem, it'll be included in the next update.

    The board editor in the video of the update looks pretty cool...

    We will submit it when it is done, so hopefully a couple of weeks including approval, but I thought you were happy with editing the XML files manually?

    I don't have one...

    That's weird because i have 19 boards and the game is running fine for me. I haven't seen a difference in performance.

    If you run the app through the debugger, you will get memory warnings. This means that the system could shut you down if it wants to, which will look like a crash to the user. We cannot just hope for it not to shut the app down, we have to be on the safe side, and hence stay below 25 Mb of RAM usage.

    Hope this makes sense.

    I am very happy with customizing the boards manually. I was just wondering. d=

    All the boards I've made is in the link.
    I modified the God board so it can jump higher much higher, go faster, etc.

    I like editing the files because it let's us change the wheels, griptape, and trucks. But it would be easier to just take a picture on the phone.

    Uh. First.
    You need a Jailbroken device.
    You need to know how to SSH
    Lastly, you need to know how to photoshop.

    I know each board has its own stats, but there is no way to see this in game. Maybe, in an update, you can let us see each board's stats. Also, a wheel color option would be great too. And for the ninja board, could you have other characters available on the customization page, my favorites are box boy and pirate pete!
