2 * fixed some drawing bugs when scaling graphics due to "game.tile_size"
3 * added some performance improvements when handling SDL surface scaling
6 * added custom graphics property "game.tile_size" to define in-game tile
7 size (this defines the tile size actually displayed on the playfield);
8 tile graphics will either be scaled to the defined game tile size or
9 have to be specified with the same image size (using ".tile_size")
12 * added custom graphics property ".tile_size" to define tile image size
13 for game element graphics (like "custom_1.tile_size"); non-standard
14 sized images will then be scaled accordingly to standard tile size
17 * fixed music still being played in Android version when in background
20 * added Android "menu" button to be treated as "yes" requester button
21 (while the Android "back" button was already treated as "no" button)
24 * added command line options "--version" / "-V" to show program version
25 (also shows SDL library versions when prefixed with "--debug" option)
28 * error file set to unbuffered to prevent truncation in case of crashes
31 * fixed bug causing wrong screen updates while playing (whole screen
32 update from backbuffer instead of playfield buffer if REDRAW_ALL set)
33 * fixed nasty (typo) bug in native EM engine causing broken player
34 graphics when using different (redefined) playfield size
37 * fixed bug causing EM/EMC graphics sets containing original 16x16 tiles
38 to be displayed incorrectly (with broken scaling) when switching
39 between small and normal game graphics (thanks a lot to filbo for
40 analyzing and describing how to exactly reproduce this bug)
43 * removed MS-DOS support
44 * removed native X11 support (X11 now only supported via SDL/SDL2)
47 * cleanup of functions RedrawPlayfield() and BlitScreenToBitmap()
50 * fixed level redraw after quick-loading tape with small tile graphics
53 * added compatibility code for existing request door animation settings
56 * added ultra-generic, ultra-flexible request door animation handling
59 * fixed major bugs in handling single-player and multi-player tapes
60 (for details, see http://www.artsoft.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2086)
63 * fixed various problems with playfield and requester/tape/editor doors
64 defined to be at non-standard screen positions in artwork config file
67 * added envelope style requester dialog (alternative to door requester)
70 * fixed problems with window scaling and updating related setup value
71 * added setup option to select anti-aliasing quality of scaled windows
74 * improved speed of displaying progress when loading levels and artwork
75 * changed fullscreen and window scaling changes in setup menu to have
76 immediate effect (instead of being effective after leaving setup menu)
79 * fixed toons stopping on continuous touch events on Mac OS X
82 * fixed bug when displaying game envelope with even sized playfield
83 * added graphic configuration options for request (dialog) buttons
86 * fixed some redraw bugs with window scaling under Mac OS X
89 * fixed problems with window scaling and updating related setup value
92 * fixed problems related to fullscreen switching and window scaling
95 * fixed inconsistent custom artwork constants numbering in src/main.h,
96 src/screen.c and src/conf_gfx.c (this really should be cleaned up)
97 (this bug caused custom artwork definition to set wrong variable)
100 * fixed using fullscreen mode on Android instead of pseudo-window mode
101 * fixed keeping desktop fullscreen mode when changing viewport size
104 * fixed remaining text input problems for non-ASCII keys with modifier
105 * added window scaling options to graphics setup menu
108 * fixed key code problems with certain keys for SDL2
109 (keypad keys not being in numerical order; number of function keys)
110 * fixed text input problems for text characters using modifier keys
113 * fixed fullscreen option for SDL2 (using only desktop fullscreen now)
116 * fixed graphical bugs when using renderer/texture based graphics
119 * fixed playing certain sounds (menu navigation sound and counting
120 score sound after solving a level) when "normal sounds" are disabled
123 * continued porting Rocks'n'Diamonds to Android (levels now playable)
126 * added SDL2 renderer/texture based graphics frame handling to allow for
127 "desktop" style fullscreen mode and scaling of game screen/window
130 * removed limitation of artwork files to selected file types (this means
131 that every file type supported by SDL_image and SDL_mixer can be used)
132 * changed default graphics from PCX to PNG (needed for Android version
133 to prevent painfully slow image loading, although not compressing PCX
134 files in the assets directory of the APK package might also work fine)
135 * fixed bug with SDL_BlitSurface creating garbage when source and target
136 surface are the same (this bug also existed in versions of SDL 1.2.x)
139 * started porting Rocks'n'Diamonds to Android (already shows main menu)
142 * ported Rocks'n'Diamonds to SDL2 (first simple version that works)
145 * version number set to 3.3.1.3
148 * version 3.3.1.2 released
151 * improved error handling: display error message on screen (not only in
152 the error file or on the console), and display path of the error file
155 * fixed problem with R'n'D restarting with same level set that may have
156 caused a problem (and therefore failing again and again); after an
157 error, the last level set is now deactivated in file "levelsetup.conf"
158 to restart with default level set (which should work without error)
161 * fixed determining main game data directory on Mac OS X "Mavericks"
164 * version number set to 3.3.1.2
167 * version 3.3.1.1 released
170 * added scripts directory to distribution package to enable building
171 element definitions after editing artwork config source code files
174 * added volume controls for sounds, loops and music to sound setup
177 * version number set to 3.3.1.1
180 * version 3.3.1.0 released
183 * version number set to 3.3.1.0
186 * fixed display of level time switching from ascending to descending
187 when making use of the "time orb bug" (see element setting in editor)
188 (see level 053 of set "rnd_equinox_tetrachloride_ii" for an example)
189 * fixed graphics performance problems (especially on Mac OS X) by using
190 whole-playfield redraw on SDL target, while still using the previous
191 single-tile redraw method on X11 target (using redraw tiles threshold)
194 * fixed code (esp. random/tape handling) when compiled on 64-bit systems
195 (by replacing all "long" types by "int" types)
198 * fixed nasty bug (affecting crumbled graphics) after adding new special
199 graphics suffix ".TAPE" (and messing some things up in src/main.c)
202 * fixed wrong argument order in DrawTextBuffer() in gadgets.c
203 (this caused fonts in envelope config in level editor being invisible)
206 * fixed some problems with half tile size and even tile sized playfields
209 * added level selection screen (when clicking on main menu level number)
210 * added level tracing (played, solved) for use in level selection screen
211 (to display already played or solved levels in different font color)
214 * added alternative game mode for playing with half size playfield tiles
215 * fixed another memory violation bug in the native Supaplex game engine
216 (this potential memory bug was also in the original Megaplex code, but
217 apparently only occured under rare conditions triggered by using the
218 additional added preceding playfield memory area to make a few strange
219 levels using dirty off-playfield tricks (bugs) like "12s033.sp" also
220 solvable (this all worked fine in the classic DOS version, of course))
223 * added graphics performance optimization to native Supaplex game engine
224 * fixed bug with accidentally removing preceding buffer in SP engine
225 * moved some editor graphics from "RocksDoor.pcx" to "RocksMore.pcx"
226 (to prevent compatibility mapping of these newer graphics to older
227 (custom) versions of "RocksDoor.pcx" which did not contain them yet)
230 * added separately configurable game panel background to graphics config
231 * fixed displaying Supaplex time (now based on 35 fps instead of 50 fps)
234 * added tape panel graphics and screen positions to graphics config
237 * added compatibility stuff for redefined "global.door" (which affects
238 all parts of that image that have their own graphics definition now)
241 * added sound button graphics to graphics config
244 * added tape button graphics and screen positions to graphics config
247 * improved single step mode in R'n'D, EM and SP engines
250 * version number set to 3.3.0.2
253 * version 3.3.0.1 released
256 * added configurable key shortcuts for snap+direction player actions
257 (probably most useful for recording tool-assisted speedrun (TAS)
258 tapes using the single-step mode of the tape recorder)
261 * version number set to 3.3.0.1
264 * version 3.3.0.0 released
267 * fixed missing memory allocation in SP engine when saving engine data
268 for non-SP game engine snapshots (which also stores SP engine part)
271 * fixed problem with scrolling in native EM engine in multi-user mode
272 (this bug was just introduced with the experimental viewport stuff)
273 * fixed animation of splashing acid in EM engine with classic artwork
274 * fixed animation of cracking nut in EM engine with classic artwork
275 * fixed (implemented) single step mode in native EM and SP engines
276 * fixed "latest_engine" flag in classic levels (moved to single sets)
277 * updated SDL library DLLs for Windows to the latest release versions
278 (this fixed some mysterious crashes of the game on Windows systems)
279 * replaced EM and SP set in classic level set with native level files
280 * finally added a newly written "CREDITS" file to the game package
281 * removed sampled music loops from classic music set
284 * changed native Emerald Mine engine to support different viewport sizes
287 * changed native Supaplex engine to support different viewport sizes
290 * added initial, experimental support for different viewport properties
291 (with "viewports" being menu/playfield area and doors; currently the
292 size of the menu/playfield area and door positions can be redefined)
295 * added initial, experimental support for different window sizes
298 * added support for native Sokoban solution files in pure 'udlrUDLR'
299 format with extension ".sln" instead of ".tape" for solution tapes
302 * added image config suffix ".class" to be able to define classes of
303 crumbled elements which are then separated against each others when
304 drawing crumbled borders (class names can freely be defined)
305 (Example: "sand.CRUMBLED.class: sand" and "emc_grass.CRUMBLED.class:
306 emc_grass" results in sand and emc_grass being crumbled separately,
307 even if directly adjacent on the playfield.)
308 * added image config suffix ".style" to use two new features for
310 - "accurate_borders": try to draw correctly crumbled corners (which
311 means that a row of crumbled elements does not have two crumbled
312 corners for each element in the row, but only at the "real" corners
313 at the start and the end of the row of elements)
314 - "inner_corners": also draw inner corners in concave constructions
315 of several crumbled elements -- this is currently a big kludge: the
316 number of frames for crumbled graphic must be "2", with the first
317 frame as usual (crumbled graphic), while the second frame contains
318 the graphic with inner (crumbled) corners for the crumbled graphic
319 (These two features are mainly intended for bevelled walls, not for
320 diggable elements like sand; "inner_corners" only works reliably for
321 static walls, not for in-game dynamically changing walls using CEs.)
324 * finished code cleanup of native Supaplex game engine
327 * started code cleanup of native Supaplex game engine
330 * integrated playing sound effects into native Supaplex game engine
333 * added configurable key shortcuts for the tape recorder buttons
336 * added (hidden) function to save native Supaplex levels with tape as
337 native *.sp file containing level with demo (saved with a file name
338 similar to native R'n'D levels, but with ".sp" extension instead of
339 ".level"); to use this functionality, enter ":save-native-level" or
340 ":snl" from the main menu with the native Supaplex level loaded and
341 the appropriate tape loaded to the tape recorder
342 * fixed potential crash bug caused by illegal array access in engine
343 snapshot loading and saving code
344 * changed setting permissions of score files to be world-writable if
345 the program is not installed and running setgid to allow the program
346 to modify existing score files when run as a different user (which
347 allows cheating, of course, as the score files are not protected
348 against modification in this case)
349 * added (commented out) suggestions for RO_GAME_DIR and RW_GAME_DIR to
350 the top level Makefile for Debian / Ubuntu installations
351 * added saving read-only levels from editor into personal level set
352 (thanks to Bela Lubkin for the above four patches)
355 * added updating of game values on the panel to Supaplex game engine
358 * finished integrating R'n'D graphics engine into Supaplex game engine
359 (although some animations do not support full customizability yet)
362 * done integrating R'n'D graphics engine into file "Infotron.c"
363 * done integrating R'n'D graphics engine into file "OrangeDisk.c"
366 * integrated engine snapshot functionality into Supaplex game engine
369 * fixed bug in native Supaplex engine that broke several demo solutions
370 * fixed bug with re-initializing already existing elements in function
371 RelocatePlayer() in src/game.c (causing problems with Sokoban fields
372 counted a second time, making the currently playing level unsolvable)
373 * done integrating R'n'D graphics engine into file "SnikSnaks.c"
374 * done integrating R'n'D graphics engine into file "Electrons.c"
375 * done integrating R'n'D graphics engine into file "Zonk.c"
378 * done integrating R'n'D graphics engine into file "Murphy.c"
379 * done integrating R'n'D graphics engine into file "BugsTerminals.c"
382 * started integrating R'n'D graphics engine into Supaplex game engine
385 * added small kludge that allows transparent pushing animation over
386 non-black background (by using "game.use_masked_pushing: true")
387 * added editor flag to Sokoban field/object elements to automatically
388 finish solved Sokoban style levels (even if they contain non-Sokoban
389 elements, which prevents auto-enabling this feature for such levels)
392 * added new element "from_level_template" which is replaced by element
393 from level template at same playfield position when loaded (currently
394 not accessible from level editor, but only used for special Sokoban
395 level conversion when using "special_flags: load_xsb_to_ces")
396 * added special behaviour for "special_flags: load_xsb_to_ces": global
397 settings of individual level files are overwritten by template level
398 (except playfield size, level name, level author and template flag)
401 * added handling of gravity ports when converting Supaplex style R'n'D
402 levels to native Supaplex levels for playing with Supaplex engine
405 * fixed bug in Supaplex engine regarding initial screen scroll position
408 * fixed EMC style pushing animations in the R'n'D graphics engine (when
409 using ".2nd_movement_tile" for animations having start and end tile)
410 * for this to work (look) properly for two-tile pushing animations with
411 non-black (i.e. opaque) background, the pushing graphics drawing order
412 was changed to first draw the pushed element, then the player (maybe
413 this should be controlled by an ".anim_mode" flag yet to be added)
414 * two-tile animations for moving or pushing should have 7 frames for
415 normal speed, 15 frames for half speed etc. to display correct frames
416 * two-tile animations are also displayed correctly with different speed
417 settings for the player (for pushing animations) or moving elements
420 * added searching for template level (file "template.level") not only
421 inside the level set directory, but also in above level directories;
422 this makes is possible to use the same single template level file
423 (placed in a level group directory) for many level sub-directories
426 * fixed bug with steel exit being destructible during opening phase
427 * added token "special_flags" to "levelinfo.conf" (currently with the
428 only recognized value "load_xsb_to_ces", doing the same as the flag
429 "-Dload_xsb_to_ces" on the command line, but as a permanent flag for
430 converting all elements in native (XSB) Sokoban level files to CEs)
433 * fixed some problems with Supaplex engine when compiling for Windows
436 * added special mode to convert elements of Sokoban XSB levels to CEs
437 by adding "-Dload_xsb_to_ces" to the command line starting the game
438 (also adding a dependency to a template level file "template.level")
441 * added reading native Sokoban levels and level packages (XSB files)
444 * fixed bugs in (auto)scrolling behaviour when passing ports or when
445 wrapping around the playfield through "holes" in the playfield border
448 * changed internal playfield bitmap handling from playfield sized bitmap
449 to screen sized bitmap (visible scrolling area), therefore speeding up
450 graphics operations (by eliminating bitmap updates in invisible areas)
451 and removing playfield size limitations due to increasing bitmap size
452 for larger playfield sizes (while the new implementation always uses
453 a fixed playfield bitmap size for arbitrary internal playfield sizes)
456 * fixed bug with single step mode (there were some cases where the game
457 did not automatically return to pause mode, e.g. when trying to push
458 things that cannot be pushed or when trying to run against a wall)
461 * added support for loading Supaplex levels in MPX level file format
464 * fixed SP engine to set "game over" not before lead out counter done
467 * fixed (potential) compile error when using GCC option "-std=gnu99"
468 (thanks to Tom "spot" Callaway)
471 * fixed array allocation in native Supaplex engine to correctly handle
472 preceding scratch buffers (needed because of missing border checking)
473 * fixed playfield initialization to correctly add raw header bytes as
474 subsequent scratch buffer (needed because of missing border checking)
477 * most important parts of native Supaplex engine integration working:
478 - native Supaplex levels can be played in native Supaplex engine
479 - native Supaplex level/demo files ("*.sp" files) can be re-played
480 - all 111 classic original Supaplex levels automatically solvable
481 - native Supaplex engine can be selected and used from level editor
482 - logic of re-playing Supaplex demos migrated to R'n'D tape logic
485 * fixed another translation problem from VisualBasic to C (where "int"
486 should be "short") causing unsolvable demos with bugs and terminals
487 ("bugs" being related to the Supaplex "buggy base" element here ;-) )
490 * fixed bug when reading Supaplex single level files (preventing loader
491 from seeking to level position like in Supaplex level package files)
494 * first classic Supaplex level running and solved by solution/demo tape
497 * started with integration of native Supaplex engine, using source code
498 of Megaplex from Frank Schindler, based on original Supaplex engine
501 * version number set to 3.2.6.2
504 * version 3.2.6.1 released
507 * fixed bug with element_info[e].gfx_element not being initialized in
508 early game stage, causing native graphics in EMC level sets to be
509 mapped completely to EL_EMPTY (causing a blank screen when playing)
510 (this only happened when starting the program with an EMC set with
511 native graphics, but not when switching to such a set at runtime)
514 * deactivated blit-to-same-surface workaround again (see 2009-03-24)
515 and using self-compiled, patched SDL.dll that solves this problem
516 (interim solution until release of SDL 1.2.14 that should fix this)
519 * extended backwards compatibility mode to allow already fixed bug with
520 change actions (see "2008-02-05") for existing levels (especially the
521 Zelda and Zelda II levels and other cool stuff by Alan Bond like FMV)
524 * reactivated workaround to prevent program crashes due to blitting to
525 the same SDL surface that apparently only occurs on Windows systems
526 (this is no final solution; this problem needs further investigation)
529 * version number set to 3.2.6.1
532 * version 3.2.6.0 released
535 * fixed behaviour of player option "no centering when relocating" which
536 was incorrect when disabled and relocation target inside visible area
537 and "no scrolling when relocating" enabled at the same time
540 * fixed problems with re-mapping players on playfield to input devices:
541 previously, players found on the level playfield were changed to the
542 players connected to input devices (for example, player 3 in the level
543 was changed to player 1 (using artwork of player 3, to be able to use
544 a player with a different color)); this had the disadvantage that CE
545 conditions using player elements did not work (because the players in
546 the level definition are different to those effectively used in-game);
547 the new system uses the same player elements as defined in the level
548 playfield and re-maps the input devices of connected players to the
549 corresponding player elements when playing the level (in the above
550 example, player 3 now really exists in the game and is moved using the
551 events from input device 1); level tapes still store the events from
552 input devices 1 to 4, which are then re-mapped to players accordingly
553 when re-playing the tape (just as it is done when playing the level)
556 * fixed bug with player relocation while the player switches an element
559 * fixed bug with EM/DC style exit and EM/DC style steel exit which was
560 not walkable (and did not let the player enter) when in process of
561 opening, but not fully open yet (which can cause the player not being
562 able to enter the exit in EM/DC style levels in time)
565 * fixed some bugs regarding the new level/CE random seed reset options
568 * moved "level settings" and "editor settings" to two tabbed screens in
569 level editor to gain space for additional level property settings
570 * added level setting to start a level with always the same random seed
571 * added CE action "set random seed" to re-initialize random seed in game
572 (this is the only CE action that gets executed before the CE changes,
573 which is needed to use the newly set random seed during the CE change)
576 * fixed redraw problem of special editor door when playing from editor
579 * fixed initialization of gfx_element for level sketch image creation
582 * added switch for EM style dynamite "[ ] explodes with chain reaction"
583 (with default set to "on" for existing levels, but "off" for all new
584 levels), as EM style dynamite does not chain-explode in original EM
587 * added optional initial inventory for players (pre-collected elements)
588 * added change page actions "set player inventory" and "set CE artwork"
589 * added recognition of "player" parameter on change pages when player
590 actions are defined, but no trigger player in corresponding condition
591 (this resulted in actions that only affected the first player before)
592 * fixed bug with change actions being executed for newly created custom
593 elements resulting from custom element changes, when the intention was
594 only to check for change actions for the previous custom element
597 * changed design and size of element drawing area in level editor
598 * added "element used as action parameter" to element change actions
601 * added possibility to reanimate player immediately after his death
602 (for example, by "change to <player> when explosion of <player>")
605 * fixed bug with "gray" white door not being uncovered by magnifier
606 * added score for collecting (any) key to the white key config page
609 * added condition "deadly when <getting hit by>" for custom elements
610 that behaves a bit like the existing "deadly when <colliding with>",
611 but with the following differences:
612 - it only kills players or friends when it was moving before it hits
613 - it does not kill players or friends that try to run into it
616 * fixed the following change conditions where a player element is used
617 as the "element that is triggering the custom element change":
620 - explosion of <element>
622 (the last two conditions already worked partially, but only for the
623 first player, and not for the "Murphy" player when using "move of")
626 * fixed crash bug caused by accessing invalid element (with value -1)
627 in UpdateGameControlValues()
628 * fixed graphical bug when using two-tile movement animations with EMC
629 game engine without explicitly using native EMC graphics engine
632 * fixed bug in new "can dig" feature (see below) so that an unsuccessful
633 try to push something (due to push delay) does not cause a dig action
636 * fixed bug with reference elements used as trigger elements on custom
637 element change pages not being recognized
638 * fixed bug with reference elements not being removed from the playfield
639 * added engine functionality that allows custom elements that "can dig"
640 other elements not only to do so when moving by themselves, but also
641 when being pushed by the player (therefore adding the functionality to
642 push one element over another element, replacing it with the new one)
645 * added command line function to write level sketch images to directory
648 * merged override and auto-override options into new override options
649 with a new data type than can take the values "no", "yes" and "auto"
652 * fixed growing steel wall to also leave behind steel wall instead of
653 normal, destructible wall
654 * fixed handling of rocks falling through stacks of quicksand with
655 different speed (before, the rocks just got stuck in the quicksand)
658 * fixed nasty bug with auto-override and normal override not working on
659 program startup (especially when current level set has custom artwork)
662 * version 3.2.5 released as special edition "R'n'D jue"
665 * fixed X11 crash bug when blitting masked title screens over background
668 * changed build system to support special editions (like "R'n'D jue")
669 * added (hardcoded) loading graphics for "R'n'D jue" special edition
670 * fixed X11 crash bug when scaling images with width/height less than 32
673 * added "background.PLAYING" (only visible as two-pixel border in game)
674 * added default level set for first start of special R'n'D version
675 * changed door animations for editor always behaving like "quick doors"
678 * added new custom artwork setup option "auto-override non-CE sets" for
679 automatic artwork override that is only used for level sets without
680 custom element artwork (as it does not make much sense to override
681 any artwork that redefines custom element artwork for sets using CEs)
682 * fixed default artwork for "special" R'n'D versions always using the
683 "classic" artwork as the base if base artwork is not explicitly
684 defined in "levelinfo.conf", regardless of different default artwork
685 used by the special R'n'D version -- this is needed because any such
686 custom artwork is designed using the "classic" artwork definitions as
687 the base (including menu definitions and screen positions etc., which
688 would otherwise be taken from the different special default artwork)
691 * fixed drawing of animated "quicksand.filling" and "quicksand.emptying"
692 for both EMC and R'n'D graphics engine (heavy workarounds needed due
693 to massively broken handling of quicksand in R'n'D game engine)
694 * fixed off-limits access to array in DrawLevelFieldCrumbledSandExt()
695 * fixed crash bug (hopefully) when scrolling with cursor keys in editor
698 * fixed small bug in toon drawing (introduced when fixing the crash bug)
701 * added graphics definition "game.panel.highscore" to display the
702 current levels current high score in the game panel
705 * version number set to 3.2.5
708 * version 3.2.4 released
711 * fixed crash bug in toon drawing functions for large step offset values
714 * fixed some problems with displaying game panel when quick-loading tape
717 * fixed (experimental only) redrawing of every tile per frame (even if
718 unneeded) for the extended (R'n'D based) EMC graphics engine
719 * added optimization to only calculate element count for panel display
720 if really needed (that is, if element count values defined on panel)
721 * fixed problem with special editor door redraw when entering main menu
724 * fixed bug with displaying background for title messages on info screen
725 * some code cleanup for the extended (R'n'D based) EMC graphics engine
728 * fixed bug with CE action "move player" always resulting in player 4
729 if there was a CE action with no trigger player (because the player
730 element was calculated by using log_2() from trigger player bits with
731 the value PLAYER_BITS_ANY) -- this is now fixed by also storing the
732 triggering player bit mask and handling all players in "move player"
733 * fixed bug when defined artwork cannot be found for artwork that has
734 default artwork cloned from other artwork (without default filename)
735 * added several fixes to the extended (R'n'D based) EMC graphics engine
738 * fixed broken editor copy and paste for custom elements between levels
741 * title messages are now also searched in graphics artwork directory;
742 those found in graphics directory have precendence over those found
743 in level directory -- this handles title messages stored in graphics
744 directories as part of the artwork set, just like title images; this
745 makes sense, as corresponding special font definitions for messages
746 are usually defined in the same graphics artwork directory, and also
747 because title images and title messages that are combined in a level
748 set introduction should usually not be separated when the level set
749 is used with a different artwork set (e.g. using "override graphics")
750 * fixed problem with door borders on main screen by first drawing doors
751 and then the corresponding border masks, but not vice versa
752 * fixed problem with artwork config entries using the value "[DEFAULT]";
753 this does not what one might expect, but sets the value to an invalid
754 value -- solution: simply ignore such entries, which results in this
755 value keeping its previous (real) default value (in general, entries
756 that should use their default value should just not be defined here)
757 * fixed problem with wrong fading area size from main menu to setup menu
760 * fixed problem with broken crumbled graphics after level set changes
761 when using R'n'D custom artwork with level sets using the EMC engine
764 * fixed invisible "joysticks deactivated ..." text on setup input screen
767 * added use of hashes created from static lists (element tokens, image
768 config, font tokens) to speed up lookup of configuration parameters
769 * fixed bug where element and graphic config token lookup was mixed up
772 * added "busy" animation when initializing program and loading artwork
773 * added initialization profiling for program startup (debugging only)
776 * fixed(?) very strange bug apparently triggered by memset() when code
777 was cross-compiled with MinGW cross-compiler for Windows XP platform
778 (this only happened when using SDL.dll also self-compiled with MinGW)
781 * added graphics engine directive "border.draw_masked_when_fading" that
782 enables/disables drawing of border mask over screen that is just faded
785 * fixed small problem with separate fading definition for game screen
788 * added additional configuration directives for setup screen draw offset
789 menu.draw_xoffset.SETUP[XXX] and menu.draw_yoffset.SETUP[XXX] with XXX
790 in GAME, EDITOR, GRAPHICS, SOUND, ARTWORK, INPUT, SHORTCUTS_1,
791 SHORTCUTS_2, CHOOSE_ARTWORK, CHOOSE_OTHER (where "CHOOSE_ARTWORK" is
792 used to define draw offset on custom artwork selection screens and
793 "CHOOSE_OTHER" is used on all other list style selection screens, like
794 choosing game speed or screen mode for fullscreen mode)
795 * added additional configuration directives to define main menu buttons:
796 - menu.button_name and menu.button_name.active
797 - menu.button_levels and menu.button_levels.active
798 - menu.button_scores and menu.button_scores.active
799 - menu.button_editor and menu.button_editor.active
800 - menu.button_info and menu.button_info.active
801 - menu.button_game and menu.button_game.active
802 - menu.button_setup and menu.button_setup.active
803 - menu.button_quit and menu.button_quit.active
804 * added eight pure decoration graphic definitions for the game panel
807 * added support for accessing native Diamond Caves II level packages
808 * fixed displaying of game panel values for Emerald Mine game engine
809 * fixed displaying end-of-level time and score values on new game panel
812 * added game panel control to display arbitrary elements on game panel
813 * added game panel control to display custom element score (globally
814 unique for identical custom elements) either as value or as element
815 * added ".draw_masked" and ".draw_order" to game panel control drawing
818 * fixed some general bugs with handling of ".active" elements and fonts
821 * cleanup of game panel elements (some elements were not really needed)
822 * added displaying of gravity state (on/off) as new game panel control
823 * added animation for game panel elements (similar to game elements)
826 * added new pseudo game mode "PANEL" to define panel fonts and graphics
827 - panel fonts now use ".PANEL" suffix instead of ".PLAYING" suffix
828 - panel graphics now use ".PANEL" suffix instead of ".DOOR" suffix
829 (else graphics would have to use ".PLAYING", which would be confusing)
830 * fixed bug when fading out to game screen with border mask defined
833 * added attribute ".tile_size" for element style game panel controls
836 * added <space> key as additional valid key to use for confirm requester
839 * improved menu fading, adding separate fading definitions for entering
840 and leaving a "content" screen (in general), and optional definitions
841 for the special "content" screens SCORES, EDITOR, INFO and PLAYING
844 * added (currently invisible) setup option to define scroll delay value
845 * fixed small bug in priority handling when auto-detecting level start
846 position in levels without player element (but player from CE etc.)
847 * added option "game.forced_scroll_delay_value" to override user choice
848 of scroll delay value for certain level sets with "graphicsinfo.conf"
849 * replaced setup option "scroll delay: on/off" by new setup option that
850 directly allows selecting the desired scroll delay value from 0 to 8
853 * added displaying of most game panel control elements (not animated)
856 * added new configuration directives to display additional game engine
857 values on the game control panel, like the following examples:
858 - game.panel.time_hh/time_mm/time_ss - level time in HH/MM/SS format
859 - game.panel.penguins - number of penguins to rescue
860 - game.panel.level_name - level name of current level
863 * added support for preview tile sizes "1" and "2" (1x1 and 2x2 pixels)
866 * added new player option "no centering when relocating" for "invisible"
867 teleportations to level areas that look exactly the same, giving the
868 illusion that the player did not relocate at all (this was the default
869 since 3.2.3, but caused visual problems with room creation in "Zelda")
870 * added new menu fading effect "melt", shamelessly stolen from "DOOM"
873 * improved menu fading, adding separate fading definitions for entering
874 and leaving a menu and for fading between menu and "content" screens
875 * fixed small bug with recognizing also ".font_xyz" style definitions
878 * improved menu fading, adding separate fading definitions for fading
879 between menu screens and fading between menu and "destination" screens
882 * titlemessage_initial_x and titlemessage_x set to "[DEFAULT]" in static
883 configuration (set from "[titlemessage_initial]" and "[titlemessage]")
884 * fading settings of "[titlemessage_initial]" and "[titlemessage]" set
885 to "[DEFAULT]" in static configuration (set from "[title_initial]" and
887 * improved title fading, allowing fading animation types "none", "fade"
888 and "crossfade" (including cross-fading of last title to main menu)
891 * added configurability of graphics, sounds and music for title screens,
892 which are separated into initial title screens (only shown once at
893 program startup) and title screens shown for a given level set; these
894 title screens can be composed of up to five title images and up to
895 five title text messages (each drawn using an optional background
896 image), also using background music and/or sounds; aspects like
897 background images, sounds and music of title screens can either be
898 defined generally (valid for all title screens) or specifically (and
899 therefore differently for each title screen) using these directives:
901 to define a background image, sound or music file for all screens:
902 - background.TITLE_INITIAL (for all title screens for game startup)
903 - background.TITLE (for all title screens for level sets)
905 to define a background image, sound or music file for a single screen:
906 - background.titlescreen_initial_x (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
907 - background.titlescreen_x (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
908 - background.titlemessage_initial_x (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
909 - background.titlemessage_x (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
911 to define the title screen images:
912 - titlescreen_initial_x (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
913 - titlescreen_x (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
915 to define the title text messages, place text files into the level set
916 directory that have the following file names:
917 - titlemessage_initial_x.txt (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
918 - titlemessage_x.txt (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
920 to define the properties of the text messages, either use directives
921 that affect all text messages:
922 - [titlemessage_initial].<suffix>
923 - [titlemessage].<suffix>
924 or use directives that affect single text messages:
925 - titlemessage_initial_x.<suffix> (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
926 - titlemessage_x.<suffix> (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
928 valid values for <suffix> are the same as for readme.<suffix> below;
929 use ".sort_priority" (default: 0) to define an arbitrary order for
930 title images and title messages (which can therefore be mixed)
933 * added full configurability of "readme.txt" screen appearance:
934 - readme.x: <left position used with alignment>
935 - readme.y: <top position>
936 - readme.width: <maximim text width in pixels>
937 - readme.height: <maximum text height in pixels>
938 - readme.chars: <maximum number of chars per line>
939 - readme.lines: <maximum number of lines displayed>
940 - readme.align: left,center,right (default: center)
941 - readme.top: top,middle,bottom (default: top)
942 - readme.font: font name
943 - readme.autowrap: true,false (default: true)
944 - readme.centered: true,false (default: false)
945 - readme.parse_comments: true,false (default: true)
946 - readme.sort_priority: (not used here, but only for title screens)
947 when "readme.chars" and/or "readme.lines" is set to "-1" (this is the
948 default), they are automatically determined from "readme.width" and
949 "readme.height" accordingly; when they are not "-1", they have
950 precedence over "readme.width" and "readme.height"
951 * added internal ad-hoc config settings for displaying text files like
952 title messages or "readme.txt" style level set info files:
953 - .font: font name (default: readme.font)
954 - .autowrap: true,false (default: readme.autowrap)
955 - .centered: true,false (default: readme.centered)
956 - .parse_comments: true,false (default: readme.parse_comments)
957 (the leading '.' and the separating ':' are mandatory here); to use
958 these ad-hoc settings, they have to be written inside a comment, like
959 "# .autowrap: false" or "# .centered: true"; these settings then
960 override the above global settings (they can even be used more than
961 once, like "# .centered: true", then some text that should be drawn
962 centered, then "# .centered: false" to go back to non-centered text;
963 important note: after using "# .parse_comments: false", or when using
964 "readme.parse_comments: false", detecting and parsing comments inside
965 the file is disabled and comments are just printed like normal text;
966 also be aware that all automatic text size calculations are done with
967 the font defined in "readme.font", while using different fonts using
968 "# .font: <font>" inside the text file may cause unexpected results
971 * changed some numerical limits in the level editor from 255 to 999
974 * added option "system.sdl_videodriver" to select SDL video driver
975 * added output of SDL video and audio driver to "version info" page
978 * added group element drawing to IntelliDraw drawing functions
979 * fixed animation resetting problem again (last try broke Snake Bite)
980 * fixed diagonal scrolling in screen scrolling (last try broke Pac Man)
983 * added new (special) "include: <filename>" directive that works in all
984 configuration files (like "graphicsinfo.conf") and that has the same
985 effect as if that directive would be replaced with the content of the
986 specified file (this can be useful to split large configuration files
987 into several smaller ones and include them from one main file, or to
988 store configuration settings that always stay the same into a separate
989 file, while including it and only add those parts that really change)
992 * fixed minor bug (screen redraw of player tiles) in EMC graphics engine
995 * fixed bug in "InitMovingField()" where treating an integer array as
996 boolean caused wrong resetting of animations while elements are moving
997 * fixed problem with resetting animations when starting element change
1000 * added sort priority for order of title screens and title messages
1003 * changed end of game again: do not wait for the user to press a key
1004 anymore, but directly ask/confirm tape saving and go to hall of fame
1005 * re-enabled quitting of lost game by pressing space or return again
1006 * added blanking of mouse pointer when displaying title screens
1007 * added remaining menu draw offset definitions for info sub-screens
1010 * added setup option to select game speed (from very slow to very fast)
1011 * improved handling of title text messages (initial and for level set)
1014 * added new options "auto-wrap" and "centered" for DC2 style envelopes
1017 * fixed displaying and typing of player name when it is centered
1018 * added special characters to be allowed for player name (not only A-Z)
1021 * fixed blit in ScrollLevel() to same bitmap to not overlap anymore
1022 (newer versions of the SDL library seem to not like this anymore)
1025 * added code for configuration directives for control of game panel
1028 * fixed small cosmetical bug with underlining property tabs in editor
1031 * fixed small drawing bug in X11FadeRectangle
1032 * added new elements for newly supported Diamond Caves II levels:
1033 - EM/DC style exits that disappear after passing
1034 - white key and gate (one white key needed for each white gate)
1035 - fake gate (there is no key to open/pass this kind of gate!)
1036 - extended magic wall which also handles pearls and crystals
1040 * changed maximum value for endless loop detection to a higher value
1041 (some levels really used very deep recursion without being endless)
1044 * added new elements for newly supported Diamond Caves II levels:
1045 - growing steel walls
1046 - snappable land mine
1049 * added new elements for newly supported Diamond Caves II levels:
1050 - steel text elements
1053 * added level file loader for native Diamond Caves II levels
1056 * version number set to 3.2.4
1059 * version 3.2.3 released
1062 * fixed malloc/free bug when updating EMC artwork entries in level list
1063 * added workaround (warning and request to quit the current game) when
1064 changing elements cause endless recursion loop (which would otherwise
1065 freeze the game, causing a crash-like program exit on some systems)
1068 * fixed nasty string overflow bug when entering too long envelope text
1071 * added feedback sounds for menu navigation "menu.item.activating" and
1072 "menu.item.selecting" (for highlighting and executing menu entries)
1075 * improved "no scrolling when relocating" to also consider scroll delay
1076 (meaning that the player is not automatically centered in this case;
1077 this makes it possible to "invisibly" relocate the player to a region
1078 of the level playfield which looks the same as the old level region)
1079 * fixed bug with not recognizing "main.input.name.align" when active
1082 * fixed bug with displaying masked borders over title screens when
1083 screen fading is disabled
1086 * fixed infinite loop / crash bug when killing the player while having
1087 a CE with the setting "kill player X when explosion of <player X>"
1088 * added special editor graphic for "char_space" to distinguish it from
1089 "empty_space" when editing a level (in-game graphics still the same)
1092 * fixed nasty bug with initialization only done for the first player
1095 * small change to handle loading empty element/content list micro chunks
1098 * uploaded pre-release (test) version 3.2.3-0 binary and source code
1101 * some optimizations on startup speed by reducing initial text output
1104 * added caching of custom artwork information for faster startup times
1107 * fixed graphical bug when using fewer menu entries on level selection
1108 screen than usual (with "menu.list_size.LEVELS" directive)
1109 * fixed crash bug (Windows/SDL only) caused by BlitBitmap blitting from
1110 the backbuffer to the backbuffer by error (with identical rectangle)
1113 * fixed bug when displaying titlescreen with size less than element tile
1114 * fixed bug that caused elements with "change when digging <e>" event
1115 to change for _every_ digged element, not only those specified in <e>
1116 * fixed bug that caused impact style collision when dropping element one
1117 tile over the player that can both fall down and smash players
1118 * fixed bug that caused impact style collision when element changed to
1119 falling/smashing element over the player immediately after movement
1122 * fixed bug that allowed making engine snapshots from the level editor
1125 * fixed bugs with player name and current level positions on main screen
1128 * added configuration directives for control of title screens:
1129 - "title.fade_delay" for fading time
1130 - "title.post_delay" for pause between screens (when not crossfading)
1131 - "title.auto_delay" to automatically continue after some time
1132 these settings can each be overridden by specifying them with titles:
1133 - "titlescreen_initial_{1-5}.{fade_delay,post_delay,auto_delay}"
1134 - "titlescreen_{1-5}.{fade_delay,post_delay,auto_delay}"
1135 fading mode can also be specified:
1136 - "titlescreen_initial_{1-5}.anim_mode: {fade,crossfade}
1137 - "titlescreen_{1-5}.anim_mode: {fade,crossfade}
1138 default is using normal fading for menues and initial title screens,
1139 while using cross-fading for level set title screens
1140 * fixed bug with background not drawn in Hall of Fame after game was won
1143 * added configuration directives for the remaining main menu items
1146 * added additional configuration directives for info screen draw offset:
1147 menu.draw_{x,y}offset.INFO[{ELEMENTS,MUSIC,CREDITS,PROGRAM,LEVELSET}]
1148 * added additional configuration directives for preview info text
1149 * limited mouse wheel sensitive screen area to scrollable screen area
1152 * added highlighted menu text entries to menu navigation when selected
1155 * fixed bug that prevented player from correctly being created in the
1156 top left corner by a custom element change in a level without player
1157 * fixed bug that prevented player from being killed when indestructible,
1158 non-walkable element is placed on player position by extended change
1159 * added configurable menu button, text and input positions to main menu
1162 * added page fading effects for remaining info sub-screens
1163 * fixed small bug that caused some delays when answering door request
1166 * added directives "border.draw_masked.*" for menu/playfield area and
1167 door areas to display overlapping/masked borders from "global.border"
1170 * fixed bug with CE with move speed "not moving" not being animated
1171 * when changing player artwork by CE action, reset animation frame
1174 * fixed bug with not unmapping main menu screen gadgets on other screens
1175 * fixed bug with un-pausing a paused game by releasing still pressed key
1176 * fixed bug with not redrawing screen when toggling to/from fullscreen
1177 mode while fast reloading tape (without redrawing playfield contents)
1178 * fixed bug with quick-saving tape snapshot despite answering with "no"
1181 * version number set to 3.2.3
1184 * version 3.2.2 released
1187 * fixed bug with redrawing screen in fullscreen mode after quick tape
1188 reloading when using the EMC game engine
1189 * changed token names from "last_ce_[1-8]" to "prev_ce_[1-8]"
1192 * fixed bug in GameWon() when level contains no exit (like in Sokoban)
1195 * added engine snapshot functionality for instant tape reloading (this
1196 only works for the last tape saved using "quick save", and does not
1197 work across program restarts, because it completely works in memory)
1200 * version number set to 3.2.2
1203 * version 3.2.1 released
1206 * fixed nasty bugs with handling error message file on Mac OS X systems
1209 * general code cleanup (removing many annoying "#if 0" blocks etc.)
1212 * fixed bug that caused broken tapes when manually appending to tapes
1213 using the "pause before death" functionality, followed by recording
1214 * added setup option to disable fading of screens for faster testing
1217 * code cleanup of new fading functions
1220 * changed behaviour after solved game -- do not immediately stop engine
1221 * added some more smooth screen fadings (game start, hall of fame etc.)
1224 * fixed bug with displaying pushed CE with value/score/delay anim_mode
1227 * added configurable level preview position, tile size and dimensions
1228 * added configurable game panel value positions (gems, time, score etc.)
1231 * fixed small bug with time displayed incorrectly when collecting CEs
1234 * fixed bug with bumpy scrolling with EM engine in double player mode
1237 * added compatibility code to fix "Snake Bite" style levels that were
1238 broken due to a bugfix regarding EL_SOKOBAN_FIELD_PLAYER in 3.2.0
1241 * fixed bug with scrollbars inside editor when using the Windows mouse
1242 enhancement tool "True X-Mouse" (which injects key events to the event
1243 queue to insert selected stuff into the Windows clipboard, which gets
1244 confused with the "Insert" key for jumping to the last editor cascade
1245 block in the element list)
1246 * added Rocks'n'Diamonds icon for use as window icon to SDL version
1247 * added key shortcut "Alt + Enter" to toggle fullscreen mode at any time
1250 * added selection of preferred fullscreen mode to setup / graphics menu
1251 (useful if default mode 800 x 600 does not match screen aspect ratio)
1254 * improved down-scaling of images for better editor and preview graphics
1255 * changed user data directory for Mac OS X from Unix style to new place
1258 * improved level number selection in main menu and player selection in
1259 setup menu (input devices section) by using standard button gadgets
1260 * added support for mouse scroll wheel (caused buggy behaviour before)
1261 * added support for scrolling horizontal scrollbars with mouse wheel by
1262 holding "Shift" key pressed while scrolling the wheel
1263 * added support for single step mouse wheel scrolling by holding "Alt"
1264 key pressed while scrolling the wheel (can be combined with "Shift")
1265 * changed output file "stderr.txt" on Windows platform now always to be
1266 created in the R'n'D sub-directory of the personal documents directory
1267 * added Windows message box to direct to "stderr.txt" after error aborts
1270 * improved general scrollbar handling (when jump-scrolling scrollbars)
1273 * changed scrollbars to always show last line as first after scrolling
1274 (that means jumping n - 1 screen lines instead of n screen lines)
1277 * fixed level versions of EMC level loader (from V4 to V1, V2 and V3)
1278 * fixed level time for EMC levels for V2 engine (V2 and V5 levels)
1279 * fixed special handling of vertically stacked acid becoming fake acid
1282 * fixed bug (very special case) with CE_SCORE_GETS_ZERO, which can
1283 affect multiple instances of the same CE, although this kind of
1284 change condition usually only affects one single custom element
1287 * version number set to 3.2.1
1290 * version 3.2.0 released
1293 * reorganized level editor element list a bit to match engines better
1296 * fixed newly introduced bug with wrongly initializing clipboard element
1299 * fixed bug with displaying visible/invisible level border in editor
1302 * reorganized some elements in the level editor element list
1305 * fixed bug with displaying any player as "yellow" when moving into acid
1306 * fixed bug with displaying running player when player stopped at border
1309 * fixed bug with player exploding when moving into acid
1310 * fixed bug with level settings being reset in editor and when playing
1311 (some compatibility settings being set not only after level loading)
1312 * fixed crash bug when number of custom graphic frames was set to zero
1313 * fixed bug with teleporting player on walkable tile not working anymore
1314 * added partial compatibility support for pre-release-only "CONF" chunk
1315 (to make Alan Bond's "color cycle" demo work again :-) )
1318 * fixed some bugs when displaying title screens from info screen menu
1319 * fixed bug which caused EMC doors #5 to #8 to be passable without keys
1322 * changed file major version to 3 to reflect level file format changes
1323 * uploaded pre-release (test) version 3.2.0-8 binary and source code
1326 * added new chunk "NAME" to level file format for level name settings
1327 * added new chunk "NOTE" to level file format for envelope settings
1328 * changed name of chunk "CONF" to "ELEM" (for normal element settings)
1329 * updated magic(5) file to recognize changed and new level file chunks
1330 * removed change events "change when CE value/score changes" as unneeded
1333 * changed gravity (which only affects the player) from level property
1334 to player property (only makes a difference in multi-player levels)
1335 * added change events "change when CE value/score changes"
1336 * added change events "change when CE value/score changes of <element>"
1339 * added new chunk "INFO" to level file format for global level settings
1340 * added all element settings from "HEAD" chunk to "CONF" chunk
1341 * added all global level settings from "HEAD" chunk to "INFO" chunk
1344 * changed level file format by adding two new chunks "CUSX" (for custom
1345 elements, replacing the previous "CUS4" chunk) and "GRPX" (for group
1346 elements, replacing the previous "GRP1" chunk); these new IFF style
1347 chunks use the new and flexible "micro chunks inside chunks" technique
1348 already used with the new "CONF" chunk (for normal element properties)
1349 which makes it possible to easily extend the existing level format
1350 (instead of using fixed-length chunks like before, which are either

2307 * unavailable setup options now marked as "n/a" instead of "off"
2308 * new boolean directive "latest_engine" for "levelinfo.conf": when set

2434 * changed all "classic" PCX image files with 16 colors or less to
2435 256 color (8 bit) storage format, because the Allegro game library
2436 cannot handle PCX files with less than 256 colors (contributed
2437 graphics are not affected and might look wrong in the DOS version)
2439 2003-08-16 src/init.c
2440 * fixed bug which (for example) crashed the level editor when defining
2441 "dynamite.EDITOR: [NONE]", because graphics may not be undefined
2442 (only set to default) -- invalid graphics now set to default graphic
2444 2003-08-16 src/init.c
2445 * fixed graphical bug of player digging/collecting/snapping element
2446 when no corresponding graphic/animation is defined for this action,
2447 resulting in player being drawn as EL_EMPTY (which should only be
2448 done to elements being collected, but not to the player)
2450 2003-08-16 src/game.c
2451 * fixed small graphical bug of player not totally moving into exit
2453 2003-08-16 src/libgame/setup.c

2475 * fixed bug with missing graphic for active red disk bomb
2477 2003-08-07 src/files.c, src/editor.c src/game.c, src/main.h
2478 * extended variable "level.gravity" to "level.initial_gravity" and
2479 "game.current_gravity" to prevent level setting from being changed
2480 by playing the level (keeping the runtime value after playing)
2482 * fixed graphics bug when digging element that has 'crumbled' graphic
2483 definition, but not 'diggable' graphic definition
2486 * version number set to 3.0.1

2500 * I have forgotten to document changes for some time
2503 * pre-release version 2.2.0rc1 released
2505 2002-08-25 src/libgame/setup.c, src/libgame/sound.c
2506 * Level series artwork now configurable via level series config file.
2507 "levelinfo.conf" may now contain directives "graphics_set",
2508 "sounds_set" and "music_set" to select artwork sets which are
2509 globally defined or which are included into other level series.
2512 * version number set to 2.1.2
2515 * version 2.1.1 released
2517 2002-08-10 src/libgame/system.h
2518 * Default "snap" and "bomb" keys for Mac OS X set to left control key
2519 and keypad enter key -- Macs seem not to distinguish between left
2520 and right modifier keys (both generate scan code for left key). :-(
2522 2002-08-10 src/libgame/sound.c
2523 * Fixed small NetBSD compilation bug.
2524 Thanks to Adam Ciarcinski for the bug report.
2526 2002-08-10 src/libgame/sound.c
2527 * Added support for audio device "/dev/sound/dsp" (devfs).
2528 Thanks to Christoph Bauer for the corresponding report.
2530 2002-08-10 src/libgame/sound.c
2531 * Bug fixed that caused regular crashes under SDL/Windows version.
2532 Mixer_InsertSound(): Always stop music before playing new music,
2533 else "mixer_active_channels" can get fucked up.
2534 Thanks to Keith Peterston for the bug report.
2537 * version number set to 2.1.1
2540 * version 2.1.0 released
2542 2002-05-31 src/libgame/image.c
2543 * Read_PCX_to_Pixmap(): Fixed bad memory leak by freeing "ximageinfo"
2544 and "image" after converting loaded PCX image file to X11 Pixmap.
2545 This really showed up when reloading custom artwork several times.
2547 2002-05-20 src/libgame/sound.c
2548 * added support for 16 bit WAV sound files
2551 * version number set to 2.1.0
2553 2002-04-03 to 2002-05-19 (various source files)
2554 * graphics, sounds and music now fully configurable
2555 * bug fixed that prevented walking through tubes when gravity on
2556 * added support for TrueColor PCX graphics files
2557 * enhanced sound system (especially regarding stereo and loop sounds)
2559 2002-04-02 src/events.c, src/editor.c
2560 * Make Escape key less aggressive when playing or when editing level.
2561 This can be configured as an option in the setup menu. (Default is
2562 "less aggressive" which means "ask user if something can be lost"
2563 when pressing the Escape key.)
2565 2002-04-02 src/screen.c
2566 * Added "graphics setup" screen.
2568 2002-04-01 src/screen.c
2569 * Changed "choose level" setup screen stuff to be more generic (to
2570 make it easier to add more "choose from generic tree" setup screens).
2572 2002-04-01 src/config.c, src/timestamp.h
2573 * Added source files "src/config.[ch]" and "src/timestamp.h" (which
2574 automatically gets created by "src/Makefile" and contains an actual
2575 compile-time timestamp to identify development versions of the game).
2577 2002-04-01 src/libgame/misc.c
2578 * Added (currently incomplete) function "getKeyFromKeyName()" simply
2579 for orthogonality. When really needed, this function must be
2580 extended accordingly (analog to "getKeyFromX11KeyName()").
2582 2002-04-01 src/libgame/setup.c
2583 * Changed setup "TYPE_KEY" (internal, X11 style key symbol name) to
2584 "TYPE_KEY_X11" and added "TYPE_KEY" (human readable key symbol name).
2585 (This was needed for custom key setup handling in "src/screens.c".)
2587 2002-03-31 src/tape.c, src/events.c
2588 * Added quick game/tape save/load functions to tape stuff which can be
2589 invoked by a keyboard shortcut. Default: "F1" saves game/tape, "F2"
2590 loads previously recorded tape and directly goes into recording mode
2591 from the end of the tape (therefore appending to the tape).
2593 2002-03-31 src/tape.c
2594 * Added "index mark" function to tape recorder. When playing or
2595 recording, "eject" button changes to "index" button. Setting index
2596 mark is not yet implemented, but pressing index button when playing
2597 allows very quick advancing to end of tape (when normal playing),
2598 very fast forward mode (when playing with normal fast forward) or
2599 very fast reaching of "pause before end of tape" (when playing with
2600 "pause before end" playing mode).
2602 2002-03-30 src/cartoons.c
2603 * Moved some stuff from cartoons.c to the new "src/libgame/toons.c".
2605 2002-03-30 src/libgame/toons.c
2606 * New libgame source file "toons.c" for the program independant part
2609 2002-03-29 src/screen.c
2610 * Changed setup screen stuff to be more generic (to make it easier
2611 to add more setup screens).
2613 2002-03-29 src/libgame/setup.c
2614 * Changed "LoadLevelInfoFromLevelDir()" so that not only directories
2615 with level sub-directories are recognized, but also directories
2616 that directly contain level files.
2618 2002-03-29 src/libgame/sound.c
2619 * Changed "boolean stereo = TRUE;" to "static boolean stereo = TRUE;".
2620 (This was a bug that showed up only when in mono audio mode.)
2622 2002-03-24 src/libgame/x11.c, src/libgame/sdl.c, src/libgame/image.c
2623 * Changed image loading code to not exit on error, but set error by
2624 using "SetError()" accordingly. Image loading errors must now be
2625 catched by above layers (src/init.c for example).
2627 2002-03-24 src/libgame/misc.c
2628 * New functions "SetError()" and "GetError()" to provide more
2629 flexible error handling.
2631 2002-03-23 src/main.c, src/main.h
2632 * Various changes due to the introduction of the new libgame files
2633 "setup.c" and "joystick.c".
2635 2002-03-23 src/files.c
2636 * Generic parts of "src/files.c" (mainly setup and level directory
2637 stuff) moved to new libgame file "src/libgame/setup.c".
2639 2002-03-23 src/joystick.c
2640 * File "src/joystick.c" moved to libgame source tree, with
2641 correspondig changes.
2643 2002-03-23 src/libgame/system.c, src/libgame/system.h
2644 * Various changes due to the introduction of the new files "setup.c"
2647 2002-03-23 src/libgame/setup.c
2648 * New libgame source file "setup.c" that contains now most setup and
2649 level directory stuff previously handled in "src/files.c".
2651 2002-03-23 src/libgame/joystick.c
2652 * New libgame source file "joystick.c" that contains now all joystick
2653 stuff previously handled in "src/joystick.c" of "Rocks'n'Diamonds".
2655 2002-03-22 src/screens.c
2656 * "HandleChooseLevel()": Another bug in level series navigation fixed.
2657 (Wrong level series information displayed when entering main group.)
2659 2002-03-22 src/editor.c
2660 * Slight change to support new gadget event "GD_EVENT_INFO_LEAVING".
2662 2002-03-22 src/editor.c
2663 * Changed behaviour of "Escape" key in level editor to be more
2664 intuitive: When in "Element Properties" or "Level Info" mode,
2665 return to "Drawing Mode" instead of leaving the level editor.
2667 2002-03-22 src/libgame/misc.c, src/libgame/sound.c
2668 * Added command line option "-s" / "--sounds" and "-m" / "--music"
2669 to specify alternative sound and music directories. (The former
2670 shortcut "-s" for "--serveronly" has changed accordingly.)
2672 2002-03-22 src/libgame/gadgets.c
2673 * Added new gadget events for displaying gadget info texts:
2674 "GD_EVENT_INFO_ENTERING" and "GD_EVENT_INFO_LEAVING". Before,
2675 the info text callback function was only called when entering
2676 a gadget (implicit "GD_EVENT_INFO_ENTERING"). But the info text
2677 was never erased. This can now be done by checking the event type
2678 in the info callback function.
2680 2002-03-21 src/game.c, src/editor.c, src/files.c
2681 * 2.0.1 introduced the corrected "Emerald Mine" style behaviour of
2682 gems (emeralds, diamonds, ...) slipping down from normal wall,
2683 steel wall and growing wall (as in E.M.C. style levels). Although
2684 the behaviour of contributed and private levels wasn't changed (due
2685 to the use of "level.game_version"; see previous entry), editing
2686 those levels will (of course) change the behaviour accordingly.
2688 This change seems a bit too hard after thinking about it, because
2689 the EM style behaviour is not the "expected" behaviour (gems would
2690 normally only slip down from "rounded" walls). Therefore this was
2691 now changed to an element property for gem style elements, with the
2692 default setting "off" (which means: no special EM style behaviour).
2693 To fix older converted levels, this flag is set to "on" for pre-2.0
2694 levels that are neither contributed nor private levels.
2696 2002-03-20 src/files.h
2697 * Corrected settings for "level.game_version" depending of level type.
2698 (Contributed and private levels always get played with game engine
2699 version they were created with, while converted levels always get
2700 played with the most recent version of the game engine, to let new
2701 corrections of the emulation behaviour take effect.)
2703 2002-03-20 src/main.h
2704 * Added "#include <time.h>". This seems to be needed by "tape.c" for
2705 compiling the SDL version on some systems.
2706 Thanks to the several people who pointed this out.
2708 2002-03-20 src/libgame/gadgets.c
2709 * "va_arg(ap, boolean)" changed to "(boolean)va_arg(ap, int)";
2710 this caused problems especially on PowerPC architecture (although
2711 it is wrong on i386 and other architectures, too)
2713 2002-03-20 src/libgame/pcx.c, src/libgame/image.c
2714 * Added support for loading and displaying true-color PCX files.
2716 2002-03-20 src/libgame/misc.c, src/libgame/x11.c
2717 * Added command line option "-g" / "--graphics" to specify an
2718 alternative graphics directory.
2721 * Version number set to 2.0.2.
2724 * Version 2.0.1 released.
2726 2002-03-19 src/libgame/system.c, src/libgame/sdl.c [src/tools.c]
2727 * Moved function "GetPixel()" from src/tools.c ("Mirror Magic" code)
2728 to libgame source files; needed for SDL fullscreen bug workaround
2731 2002-03-18 src/screens.c
2732 * "HandleChooseLevel()": Small bug in level series navigation fixed.
2734 2002-03-18 src/files.c [src/libgame/misc.c]
2735 * Moved some common functions from src/files.c to src/libgame/misc.c.
2737 2002-03-18 src/files.c [src/libgame/misc.c]
2738 * Changed permissions for new directories and saved files (especially
2739 score files) according to suggestions of Debian users and mantainers.
2740 Thanks to Drew Parsons <dparsons@emerall.com> for the patch.
2742 2002-03-18 src/libgame/misc.c [src/files.c]
2743 * Moved some common functions from src/files.c to src/libgame/misc.c.
2745 2002-03-18 src/libgame/misc.c [src/files.c]
2746 * Changed permissions for new directories and saved files (especially
2747 score files) according to suggestions of Debian users and mantainers.
2748 Thanks to Drew Parsons <dparsons@emerall.com> for the patch.
2750 2002-03-17 src/files.c
2751 * Changed "{Load|Save}{Level|Tape}()" to IFF style file format:
2752 Replaced "cookie" header string ("ROCKSNDIAMONDS_...\n") with
2753 real IFF style header "RND1....XXXX" (where "XXXX" is "CAVE"
2754 for levels and "TAPE" for tapes). Old "cookie" style format is
2755 still supported for reading. New level and tape files are written
2758 * New IFF chunk "VERS" contains version numbers for file and game
2759 (where "game version" is the version of the program that wrote the
2760 file, and "file version" is a version number to distinguish files
2761 with different format, for example after adding new features).
2763 2002-03-17 src/libgame/sound.c
2764 * Bug in "StopMusic()" fixed: SDL_mixer functions may be called
2765 even when sound not available.
2766 Thanks to Drew Parsons <dparsons@emerall.com> for the patch.
2768 2002-03-15 src/screen.c
2769 * "DrawHallOfFame()": "FadeSounds()" when entering the hall of fame.
2770 (Before, you heard a mixture of the in-game music and the
2771 hall-of-fame music.)
2773 2002-03-15 src/libgame/sound.c, src/libgame/platform.h
2774 * Added /dev/dsp (streaming audio) support for NetBSD (instead of the
2775 /dev/audio (ulaw) based Unix audio interface).
2776 Thanks to Krister Walfridsson <cato@df.lth.se> for the patches.
2778 2002-03-15 src/libgame/sdl.c
2779 * Workaround for fullscreen bug in WIN32 version of SDL (at least
2780 in the currently actual version 1.2.3) by using "standard" screen
2781 resolutions like 800x600 and mapping all input (mouse events) and
2782 output (screen drawing) accordingly.
2784 2002-03-14 src/events.c
2785 * Function "DumpTape()" (files.c) now available by pressing 't' from
2786 main menu (when in DEBUG mode).
2788 2002-03-14 src/game.c
2789 * "GameWon()": When game was won playing a tape, now there is no delay
2790 raising the score and no corresponding sound is played.
2792 2002-03-14 src/files.c
2793 * Changed "LoadTape()" for real chunk support and also adjusted
2794 "SaveTape()" accordingly.
2796 2002-03-14 src/game.c, src/tape.c, src/files.c
2797 * Important changes to tape format: The old tape format stored all
2798 actions with a real effect with a corresponding delay between the
2799 stored actions. This had some major disadvantages (for example,
2800 push delays had to be ignored, pressing a button for some seconds
2801 mutated to several single button presses because of the non-action
2802 delays between two action frames etc.). The new tape format just
2803 stupidly records all device actions and replays them later. I really
2804 don't know why I haven't solved it that way before?! Old-style tapes
2805 (with tape file version less than 2.0) get converted to the new
2806 format on-the-fly when loading and can therefore still be played;
2807 only some minor parts of the old-style tape handling code was needed.
2808 (A perfect conversion is not possible, because there is information
2809 missing about the device actions between two action frames.)
2811 2002-03-14 src/files.c
2812 * New function "DumpTape()" to dump the contents of the current tape
2813 in a human readable format.
2815 2002-03-14 src/game.c
2816 * Small tape bug fixed: When automatically advancing to next level
2817 after a game was won, the tape from the previous level still was
2818 loaded as a tape for the new level.
2820 2002-03-14 src/tape.c
2821 * Small graphical bug fixed: When pressing ""Record" or "Play" on
2822 tape, cartoons did not get completely removed because
2823 StopAnimation() was not called.
2825 2002-03-13 src/files.c
2826 * Changed "LoadLevel()" and "SaveLevel()" to add new chunk "CNT2".
2827 Fixed bug of "CONT" and "BODY" (chunk size was set to 8-bit element
2828 size even when using 16-bit elements). Added new chunk "CNT2" for
2829 16-bit amoeba content (previously written in 8-bit field in "HEAD"
2830 chunk even when content was 16-bit element). "CNT2" should now be
2831 able to store content for arbitrary elements (up to eight blocks of
2832 3 x 3 element arrays). All "CNT2" elements will always be stored as
2833 16-bit elements. "CONT" (with 8/16-bit elements) now obsolete.
2835 2002-03-13 src/files.c
2836 * Changed "LoadLevel()" for real chunk support.
2838 2002-03-12 src/game.c
2839 * Fixed problem (introduced after 2.0.0 release) with penguins
2840 not getting killed by enemies
2842 2002-02-28 src/libgame/sound.c
2843 * Fixed small problem with new SDL_Mixer 1.2.1:
2844 Mix_VolumeMusic() must be called _after_ Mix_PlayMusic(),
2845 or it has no effect.
2847 2002-02-24 src/game.c, src/main.h
2848 * Added "player->is_moving"; now "player->last_move_dir" does
2849 not contain any information if the player is just moving at
2851 Before, "player->last_move_dir" was misused for this purpose
2852 for the robot stuff (robots don't kill players when they are
2853 moving). But setting "player->last_move_dir" to MV_NO_MOVING
2854 broke tapes when walking through pipes!
2855 ("IS_MOVING()" uses "MovPos[][]", but this fails when it is 0
2856 in a continuous movement. This fact is ignored for friends and
