After playing around with the search tool for a while I noticed that there are a lot of things that you can't search for even if you're typing in the correct information. This makes searching for levels which have these specific issues a lot harder than it needs to be.
Here are a few things that I've noticed the search tool can't do:
1. Words that are 3 characters or less
This is probably the most common problem I've come across when searching for levels, if I try and search for words such as 'Cat' or 'Red' in the search bar nothing will pop up, despite the fact that there are plenty of levels which feature those words (Cat Planet by Pounce, Red Forest by Team-RotomMan). I think it would be pretty helpful to allow 3-letter word searches since there's so many levels with those words that can't be searched.
2. Levels with punctuation
Not as big of a problem but still can be quite tedious nevertheless, when searching for levels with punctuation in quotation marks sometimes the level can't be found at all. I believe that the search bar just focuses on letters and numbers and not punctuation, hence why it can cause this problem. The only time I've had this problem was when searching for TheDraftFormer's levels such as [War]Pi.
3. Searching for numbers in letter form
This is probably the weirdest of them all and I have no idea why this is a problem, but when you are searching for numbers in their letter form you will get no results. The best example I can give for this is with 'Five' by 5uperTrinity. If you search for Five or any other number you will not get any results in the search bar whatsoever.
I guarantee there is probably a few more levels which are unsearchable for different reasons I haven't came across yet, but I'll try and update this thread with any I find.
