It's been that way since version 1.00, and it doesn't make sense that I would carefully point it out a year later when I made the help file if it was a bug.
As for why, IIRC I had level 111 of the original game in mind when deciding if it should check layer 2 or not. Though, that was 4 years ago... not sure if it makes as much sense to have it that way now, given the varied hacks people are making.
Still doesn't make it a bug though, so oh well.

But how do we know it's not just a bug you knew about and didn't bother fixing? 
Besides, why?  |

It might, if you haven't read the help file. It states pretty directly how it only uses layer 1 and sprites to determine the screen number.

Yes. The other option is to put a "Dummy" Layer 1 object on the last screen you're using during testing, so auto-set number of screens will set it properly. You can delete it afterwards, just remember that if there is no Layer 1 object on the last screen, you'll have to keep setting it manually. |

Ahh! Thats what happened before. I was using Layer 2 as ground, so to get round it, I just need to uncheck the "Auto-set number of screens" option? |

(For anyone's info) Also make sure that you're not using Layer 2 as your ground, if you're using the "Auto-set number of screens" option. For some reason LM only sets the Max Screen Number higher if Layer 1 uses more than 1 screen, but it doesn't set the Max Screen Number higher if Layer 2 uses more than 1 screen, and Layer 1 doesn't. |

It sounds like you have set the scrolling to "No vertical or horizontal scrolling". |

Ok, just unmark the "Auto-set number of screens" in the menu Options. But remember that you will have to set the screen numbers manually. |

How many screens does that level has? You need to mark the option "Auto-set number of screens" in the menu Options so you don't have to put in the level header whenever you use another screen. |
