So yeah, got back into grove of making MZX games, bu it really irks me that when I boot up megazeux (NOT mzxrun) it loads straight to the Caverns instead of either loading a blank world or have the world selector open. Thought that this will change when I have more mzx files in the directory, but nope. Any way to set it the way I want?

You can do this by either moving the Caverns of Zeux files to their own folder or by editing the config file and adding a line like:
startup_file=


This clears the startup world filename which should make MZX always start up to the file manager (or to a new world if startup_editor is enabled).

Additionally, you can set the config to boot right to the editor. I made a blank world that MZX boots straight into the editor with, with a custom character set.
