+ this change is especially targeted to the "R'n'D jue" special edition + of R'n'D, which changed some defaults at compile-time in previous + versions, like: + - using a different default artwork set (with fallback artwork for + classic artwork not existing in the special edition), + - using a different default level set, + - using a different program name and user data directory, + - starting with different default setup values and + - using custom artwork even at a very early stage of startup + (like initial fonts and initial loading/busy animation); + these changes can now all be accomplished at run-time by using a new + program-specific configuration file in the same location and with the + same name as the game binary (minus a potential binary file extension + ".exe", plus a configuration file extension ".conf", so a binary file + "rnd_jue.exe" would be complemented by a new file "rnd_jue.conf" in + the same directory); + this config file can contain all options found in "setup.conf" plus + the following new, internal "special edition" default settings: + - program_title (like "R'n'D jue") + - program_author (like "Juergen Bonhagen") + - program_email (like "jue@artsoft.org") + - program_website (like "http://jue.artsoft.org/") + - program_copyright (like "(c) 2015 by jue") + - program_company (like "A game by jue") + - default_graphics_set (like "jue0") + - default_sounds_set (like "jue0") + - default_music_set (like "jue0") + - fallback_graphics_file (like "fallback.png") + - fallback_sounds_file (like "fallback.wav") + - fallback_music_file (like "fallback.wav") + - default_level_series (like "jue_start") + - choose_from_top_leveldir ("true" or "false") + where the "default" artwork set definitions are used to specify new + default artwork that replaces the "classic" artwork sets, while the + "fallback" settings specify artwork files used for all artwork files + that would exist in the classic artwork sets, but are not defined or + cannot be found in the new default artwork set; the program title is + used for things like window title, title screens and user data folder + name, and the entry point for choosing a level set can be changed + from the current level set location to the topmost level tree node + +2015-04-07 + * added sound definitions for pressing and releasing main menu buttons + +2015-03-31 + * fixed slow tape quick-loading due to unneeded tape area update + +2015-03-30 + * replaced stop/play buttons in game panel with save/load buttons + +2015-03-24 + * added step-based engine snapshots to undo/redo single steps in game + +2015-03-19 + * fixed (swapped) editor zoom directions for '-' and '+' (keypad) keys + +2015-03-18 + * added dynamically configurable graphics and layout of editor gadgets + +2015-03-11 + * fixed (swapped) editor zoom directions for left and right mouse button + +2015-03-10 + * added main menu backlink to level set selection screen + +2015-03-07 + * added support for gadget-like pressable menu buttons on main screen + +2015-03-02 + * added classic graphics, sounds and music to git repository + * added classic level sets to git repository + * added element description files to git repository + * changed mouse cursor on title screens not being always invisible + * added manually edited non-preset audio volume values to select list + (if sound, loops or music volume was manually edited in "setup.conf") + +2015-02-27 + * fixed using "background.TOOLBOX", which was simply ignored before + +2015-02-23 + * added key pad '-', '+' and '0' keys to zoom function in level editor + * changed editor key shortcut for undo/redo to 'u' and 'Shift-u' + * fixed using 'PageUp' and 'PageDown' keys for element list in editor + +2015-02-21 + * added 1%, 2% and 5% to volume controls for sound and music settings + +2015-02-14 + * fixed bug with editor border element not adjusted after resizing level + * changed unused playfield from "default" to "empty" after loading level + * increased number of undo/redo steps in level editor from 10 to 64 + +2015-02-13 + * added zoom functionality for playfield drawing area to level editor + (use left, right and middle mouse buttons on new "zoom" toolbox button + or use keys '-', '+' and '0' to zoom out, in or reset to default size) + +2015-02-11 + * fixed bug not updating game panel values in visible warp forward mode + +2015-02-10 + * changed position of CE/GE use/save template gadgets to be visually + separated from other CE/GE gadgets (to prevent accidental use) + * fixed bug in editor when using undo after rotating level repeatedly + * added 'redo' functionality to editor (by pressing 'undo' with right + mouse button or by using key shortcut "Shift-R") + +2015-02-04 + * added configurability of editor control buttons (toolbox buttons) + +2015-02-03 + * finished configurability of tape date and time display positions + * fixed bug with game buttons in tape area not properly redrawn + * fixed small graphical bug with default tape time display position + * added optionally configurable game frame counter to tape display + +2015-02-02 + * fixed configurability of editor element palette (for columns != 4) + +2015-01-29 + * improved configurability of tape date and time display positions + * added configurability of element properties button in editor + * added build dependency for auto-conf files + +2015-01-27 + * added looking for editor element descriptions in level set directory + (for example, in file "/docs/elements/custom_1.txt") + +2015-01-25 + * moved "element properties" button in editor from toolbox to palette + * added "zoom level tile size" button in editor to toolbox (currently + no function behind it;

+ tile graphics will either be scaled to the defined game tile size or + have to be specified with the same image size (using ".tile_size") + +2014-09-01 + * added custom graphics property ".tile_size" to define tile image size + for game element graphics (like "custom_1.tile_size"); non-standard + sized images will then be scaled accordingly to standard tile size + +2014-08-30 + * fixed music still being played in Android version when in background + +2014-08-30 + * added Android "menu" button to be treated as "yes" requester button + (while the Android "back" button was already treated as "no" button) + +2014-08-28 + * added command line options "--version" / "-V" to show program version + (also shows SDL library versions when prefixed with "--debug" option) + 2014-08-27 * error file set to unbuffered to prevent truncation in case of crashes
