Freddy -- Yes, I guess I forgot to mention the falling-on-save-point bug was fixed. Somehow that didn't make it into the release notes, but yes, it was intentionally fixed. ;-)
Brell -- Yes, my fix should also fix the problem where pulling a lever doesn't turn off a zapper beam. (I'm assuming this happened randomly, and also very rarely.) But yeah, the bug I found could cause both problems.
Rose -- the same bug may have also caused the problem you experienced. This bug could result in a lever failing to control *any* individual sprite, given that there is at least one zapper beam somewhere in the room. (Even if the lever that fails doesn't control that zapper beam.) The more zapper beams there were in a room, the more likely the bug was to occur, but it could still occur in a room with even only one zapper beam.
For instance, if you have a room with one zapper beam, and an *unrelated* lever/brick switch was set to control a specific moving platform, to make it start moving for example, that lever/switch might have malfunction randomly. That has been fixed.
