Yes, this is correct. The x is from old version and
comma should be used there to separate values.

Yes, I don't know why they changed it (propably
because sprites have better properties etc.), but that
is what they did. There are still some old surfaces
left, and the change from surfaces to sprites is
causing majority of the bugs.

This is again because of the old system is not fully
converted. The reason why you don't see any animations
is propably because there is no call for sprite's
member function update() in the code. It would be
propably easy to fix, if I would just know which file
handles the drawing of exits.
