8 * fixed (swapped) editor zoom directions for '-' and '+' (keypad) keys
11 * added dynamically configurable graphics and layout of editor gadgets
14 * fixed (swapped) editor zoom directions for left and right mouse button
17 * added main menu backlink to level set selection screen
20 * added support for gadget-like pressable menu buttons on main screen
23 * added classic graphics, sounds and music to git repository
24 * added classic level sets to git repository
25 * added element description files to git repository
26 * changed mouse cursor on title screens not being always invisible
27 * added manually edited non-preset audio volume values to select list
28 (if sound, loops or music volume was manually edited in "setup.conf")
31 * fixed using "background.TOOLBOX", which was simply ignored before
34 * added key pad '-', '+' and '0' keys to zoom function in level editor
35 * changed editor key shortcut for undo/redo to 'u' and 'Shift-u'
36 * fixed using 'PageUp' and 'PageDown' keys for element list in editor
39 * added 1%, 2% and 5% to volume controls for sound and music settings
42 * fixed bug with editor border element not adjusted after resizing level
43 * changed unused playfield from "default" to "empty" after loading level
44 * increased number of undo/redo steps in level editor from 10 to 64
47 * added zoom functionality for playfield drawing area to level editor
48 (use left, right and middle mouse buttons on new "zoom" toolbox button
49 or use keys '-', '+' and '0' to zoom out, in or reset to default size)
52 * fixed bug not updating game panel values in visible warp forward mode
55 * changed position of CE/GE use/save template gadgets to be visually
56 separated from other CE/GE gadgets (to prevent accidental use)
57 * fixed bug in editor when using undo after rotating level repeatedly
58 * added 'redo' functionality to editor (by pressing 'undo' with right
59 mouse button or by using key shortcut "Shift-R")
62 * added configurability of editor control buttons (toolbox buttons)
65 * finished configurability of tape date and time display positions
66 * fixed bug with game buttons in tape area not properly redrawn
67 * fixed small graphical bug with default tape time display position
68 * added optionally configurable game frame counter to tape display
71 * fixed configurability of editor element palette (for columns != 4)
74 * improved configurability of tape date and time display positions
75 * added configurability of element properties button in editor
76 * added build dependency for auto-conf files
79 * added looking for editor element descriptions in level set directory
80 (for example, in file "<my-level-folder>/docs/elements/custom_1.txt")
83 * moved "element properties" button in editor from toolbox to palette
84 * added "zoom level tile size" button in editor to toolbox (currently
85 no function behind it; will be used to zoom level editor playfield)
86 * added key shortcuts '1' to '3' to view properties of drawing elements
87 * fixed gadget display bug in editor (door 1 area) after test playing
88 * fixed bugs when changing drawing area gadgets (like group elements)
91 * re-enabled editor palette element options in setup configuration file
94 * fixed loading custom PCX image files with default artwork file names
95 (like "RocksDoor.pcx") which are not redefined in artwork config file
96 (this is a special fix for Zelda 2 and probably some other existing
97 level sets which use new graphics which are not defined in the file
98 "graphicsinfo.conf", but use a file name of one of default graphics
99 (like "RocksScreen.pcx"); this did not work anymore for PCX files
100 since the default graphics files have been changed to PNG files, so
101 different file names are checked now (like "RocksScreen.png"), so if
102 the PNG files cannot be found, the old PCX files are also checked)
105 * added some more graphics customization options for the level editor:
106 - editor.button.prev_level (position)
107 - editor.button.next_level (position)
108 - editor.input.level_number (position)
109 - editor.palette.tile_size (tile size for palette elements)
110 - editor.palette.element_left.tile_size (draw element tile size)
111 - editor.palette.element_middle.tile_size (draw element tile size)
112 - editor.palette.element_right.tile_size (draw element tile size)
113 - editor.input.gfx.level_number (current level number input field)
116 * fixed menu display bugs caused by drawing outside menu area (again)
119 * fixed broken door animations when switching between custom graphics
122 * fixed layout for "level set info" to support custom playfield size
123 * fixed changing from title to info screen with custom playfield size
126 * fixed bug with not updating default bitmap pointer for scaled images
127 * fixed redraw/fade bugs when redefining the playfield size or position
130 * fixed some smaller issues with loading custom artwork
133 * added warnings when using undefined element and graphic names in
134 custom artwork definitions (like ".crumbled_like" or ".clone_from")
135 * added setting default filenames for all cloned graphics in static
136 graphics configuration on startup (to be able to fall back later)
139 * fixed using buttons on main screen with size other than 32x32 pixels
140 * fixed some initialization bugs for scrollbars and main screen buttons
141 * fixed bug when drawing non-element graphics (without separate in-game
142 graphic/bitmap defined) while non-standard game tile size is defined
145 * removed some remaining unused X11 stuff
146 * fixed bug with potentially suppressed exit error message on startup
149 * fixed bug not loading tape when selecting level from level selection
150 screen (thanks to filbo for finding this bug and supplying a patch)
153 * fixed menu display bugs (drawing outside menu area with draw offset)
154 * fixed menu key navigation bugs (when using smaller menu list size)
157 * added support for animated door parts during opening/closing movement
160 * added automatic detection of normal/steel character elements in level
161 editor when drawing text (depending on currently selected element)
164 * eliminated historical ISO-8859-1 characters from source code files
165 (but still using them internally for special character encodings)
166 * changed output of special character for level sketch brushes to UTF-8
169 * added handling of unselectable selectbox options and option headlines
172 * fixed bug when changing between graphic sets with different tile size
173 * cleanup of handling the various graphic sizes for different purposes
174 (like 32x32, 16x16 etc.); this change was needed for the bugfix above
177 * added virtual keyboard on Android port when entering player name
180 * fixed "quick menu doors" and sounds for door and envelope requests
183 * fixed display bugs with certain custom menu definitions regarding the
184 hall of fame (high scores) and setup screens that require scrolling
185 (these display bugs showed up with custom menu graphics of R'n'D jue)
188 * fixed bug with animation frames per line with non-standard tile size
189 (relevant for example for 64x64 sized frames continued on next row)
192 * removed checking of file identifier tokens for configuration files
195 * fixed bug where player actions were only mapped in team mode
196 (this broke four tapes in automatic game engine unit test where
197 old levels contained a non-yellow player, like rnd_abby_king, 011)
200 * removed large parts of the preprocessor hell of old and unused code
203 * updated source file headers (mainly author contact information)
206 * added key shortcuts for window scaling and toggling fullscreen mode:
207 - Ctrl-'+', Ctrl-'-' and Ctrl-'0' for up/downscaling and normal size
208 - "F11" key for toggling fullscreen mode (in addition to Alt-Enter)
211 * fixed some drawing bugs when scaling graphics due to "game.tile_size"
212 * added some performance improvements when handling SDL surface scaling
215 * added custom graphics property "game.tile_size" to define in-game tile
216 size (this defines the tile size actually displayed on the playfield);
217 tile graphics will either be scaled to the defined game tile size or
218 have to be specified with the same image size (using ".tile_size")
221 * added custom graphics property ".tile_size" to define tile image size
222 for game element graphics (like "custom_1.tile_size"); non-standard
223 sized images will then be scaled accordingly to standard tile size
226 * fixed music still being played in Android version when in background
229 * added Android "menu" button to be treated as "yes" requester button
230 (while the Android "back" button was already treated as "no" button)
233 * added command line options "--version" / "-V" to show program version
234 (also shows SDL library versions when prefixed with "--debug" option)
237 * error file set to unbuffered to prevent truncation in case of crashes
240 * fixed bug causing wrong screen updates while playing (whole screen
241 update from backbuffer instead of playfield buffer if REDRAW_ALL set)
242 * fixed nasty (typo) bug in native EM engine causing broken player
243 graphics when using different (redefined) playfield size
246 * fixed bug causing EM/EMC graphics sets containing original 16x16 tiles
247 to be displayed incorrectly (with broken scaling) when switching
248 between small and normal game graphics (thanks a lot to filbo for
249 analyzing and describing how to exactly reproduce this bug)
252 * removed MS-DOS support
253 * removed native X11 support (X11 now only supported via SDL/SDL2)
256 * cleanup of functions RedrawPlayfield() and BlitScreenToBitmap()
259 * fixed level redraw after quick-loading tape with small tile graphics
262 * added compatibility code for existing request door animation settings
265 * added ultra-generic, ultra-flexible request door animation handling
268 * fixed major bugs in handling single-player and multi-player tapes
269 (for details, see http://www.artsoft.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2086)
272 * fixed various problems with playfield and requester/tape/editor doors
273 defined to be at non-standard screen positions in artwork config file
276 * added envelope style requester dialog (alternative to door requester)
279 * fixed problems with window scaling and updating related setup value
280 * added setup option to select anti-aliasing quality of scaled windows
283 * improved speed of displaying progress when loading levels and artwork
284 * changed fullscreen and window scaling changes in setup menu to have
285 immediate effect (instead of being effective after leaving setup menu)
288 * fixed toons stopping on continuous touch events on Mac OS X
291 * fixed bug when displaying game envelope with even sized playfield
292 * added graphic configuration options for request (dialog) buttons
295 * fixed some redraw bugs with window scaling under Mac OS X
298 * fixed problems with window scaling and updating related setup value
301 * fixed problems related to fullscreen switching and window scaling
304 * fixed inconsistent custom artwork constants numbering in src/main.h,
305 src/screen.c and src/conf_gfx.c (this really should be cleaned up)
306 (this bug caused custom artwork definition to set wrong variable)
309 * fixed using fullscreen mode on Android instead of pseudo-window mode
310 * fixed keeping desktop fullscreen mode when changing viewport size
313 * fixed remaining text input problems for non-ASCII keys with modifier
314 * added window scaling options to graphics setup menu
317 * fixed key code problems with certain keys for SDL2
318 (keypad keys not being in numerical order; number of function keys)
319 * fixed text input problems for text characters using modifier keys
322 * fixed fullscreen option for SDL2 (using only desktop fullscreen now)
325 * fixed graphical bugs when using renderer/texture based graphics
328 * fixed playing certain sounds (menu navigation sound and counting
329 score sound after solving a level) when "normal sounds" are disabled
332 * continued porting Rocks'n'Diamonds to Android (levels now playable)
335 * added SDL2 renderer/texture based graphics frame handling to allow for
336 "desktop" style fullscreen mode and scaling of game screen/window
339 * removed limitation of artwork files to selected file types (this means
340 that every file type supported by SDL_image and SDL_mixer can be used)
341 * changed default graphics from PCX to PNG (needed for Android version
342 to prevent painfully slow image loading, although not compressing PCX
343 files in the assets directory of the APK package might also work fine)
344 * fixed bug with SDL_BlitSurface creating garbage when source and target
345 surface are the same (this bug also existed in versions of SDL 1.2.x)
348 * started porting Rocks'n'Diamonds to Android (already shows main menu)
351 * ported Rocks'n'Diamonds to SDL2 (first simple version that works)
354 * version number set to 3.3.1.3
357 * version 3.3.1.2 released
360 * improved error handling: display error message on screen (not only in
361 the error file or on the console), and display path of the error file
364 * fixed problem with R'n'D restarting with same level set that may have
365 caused a problem (and therefore failing again and again); after an
366 error, the last level set is now deactivated in file "levelsetup.conf"
367 to restart with default level set (which should work without error)
370 * fixed determining main game data directory on Mac OS X "Mavericks"
373 * version number set to 3.3.1.2
376 * version 3.3.1.1 released
379 * added scripts directory to distribution package to enable building
380 element definitions after editing artwork config source code files
383 * added volume controls for sounds, loops and music to sound setup
386 * version number set to 3.3.1.1
389 * version 3.3.1.0 released
392 * version number set to 3.3.1.0
395 * fixed display of level time switching from ascending to descending
396 when making use of the "time orb bug" (see element setting in editor)
397 (see level 053 of set "rnd_equinox_tetrachloride_ii" for an example)
398 * fixed graphics performance problems (especially on Mac OS X) by using
399 whole-playfield redraw on SDL target, while still using the previous
400 single-tile redraw method on X11 target (using redraw tiles threshold)
403 * fixed code (esp. random/tape handling) when compiled on 64-bit systems
404 (by replacing all "long" types by "int" types)
407 * fixed nasty bug (affecting crumbled graphics) after adding new special
408 graphics suffix ".TAPE" (and messing some things up in src/main.c)
411 * fixed wrong argument order in DrawTextBuffer() in gadgets.c
412 (this caused fonts in envelope config in level editor being invisible)
415 * fixed some problems with half tile size and even tile sized playfields
418 * added level selection screen (when clicking on main menu level number)
419 * added level tracing (played, solved) for use in level selection screen
420 (to display already played or solved levels in different font color)
423 * added alternative game mode for playing with half size playfield tiles
424 * fixed another memory violation bug in the native Supaplex game engine
425 (this potential memory bug was also in the original Megaplex code, but
426 apparently only occured under rare conditions triggered by using the
427 additional added preceding playfield memory area to make a few strange
428 levels using dirty off-playfield tricks (bugs) like "12s033.sp" also
429 solvable (this all worked fine in the classic DOS version, of course))
432 * added graphics performance optimization to native Supaplex game engine
433 * fixed bug with accidentally removing preceding buffer in SP engine
434 * moved some editor graphics from "RocksDoor.pcx" to "RocksMore.pcx"
435 (to prevent compatibility mapping of these newer graphics to older
436 (custom) versions of "RocksDoor.pcx" which did not contain them yet)
439 * added separately configurable game panel background to graphics config
440 * fixed displaying Supaplex time (now based on 35 fps instead of 50 fps)
443 * added tape panel graphics and screen positions to graphics config
446 * added compatibility stuff for redefined "global.door" (which affects
447 all parts of that image that have their own graphics definition now)
450 * added sound button graphics to graphics config
453 * added tape button graphics and screen positions to graphics config
456 * improved single step mode in R'n'D, EM and SP engines
459 * version number set to 3.3.0.2
462 * version 3.3.0.1 released
465 * added configurable key shortcuts for snap+direction player actions
466 (probably most useful for recording tool-assisted speedrun (TAS)
467 tapes using the single-step mode of the tape recorder)
470 * version number set to 3.3.0.1
473 * version 3.3.0.0 released
476 * fixed missing memory allocation in SP engine when saving engine data
477 for non-SP game engine snapshots (which also stores SP engine part)
480 * fixed problem with scrolling in native EM engine in multi-user mode
481 (this bug was just introduced with the experimental viewport stuff)
482 * fixed animation of splashing acid in EM engine with classic artwork
483 * fixed animation of cracking nut in EM engine with classic artwork
484 * fixed (implemented) single step mode in native EM and SP engines
485 * fixed "latest_engine" flag in classic levels (moved to single sets)
486 * updated SDL library DLLs for Windows to the latest release versions
487 (this fixed some mysterious crashes of the game on Windows systems)
488 * replaced EM and SP set in classic level set with native level files
489 * finally added a newly written "CREDITS" file to the game package
490 * removed sampled music loops from classic music set
493 * changed native Emerald Mine engine to support different viewport sizes
496 * changed native Supaplex engine to support different viewport sizes
499 * added initial, experimental support for different viewport properties
500 (with "viewports" being menu/playfield area and doors; currently the
501 size of the menu/playfield area and door positions can be redefined)
504 * added initial, experimental support for different window sizes
507 * added support for native Sokoban solution files in pure 'udlrUDLR'
508 format with extension ".sln" instead of ".tape" for solution tapes
511 * added image config suffix ".class" to be able to define classes of
512 crumbled elements which are then separated against each others when
513 drawing crumbled borders (class names can freely be defined)
514 (Example: "sand.CRUMBLED.class: sand" and "emc_grass.CRUMBLED.class:
515 emc_grass" results in sand and emc_grass being crumbled separately,
516 even if directly adjacent on the playfield.)
517 * added image config suffix ".style" to use two new features for
519 - "accurate_borders": try to draw correctly crumbled corners (which
520 means that a row of crumbled elements does not have two crumbled
521 corners for each element in the row, but only at the "real" corners
522 at the start and the end of the row of elements)
523 - "inner_corners": also draw inner corners in concave constructions
524 of several crumbled elements -- this is currently a big kludge: the
525 number of frames for crumbled graphic must be "2", with the first
526 frame as usual (crumbled graphic), while the second frame contains
527 the graphic with inner (crumbled) corners for the crumbled graphic
528 (These two features are mainly intended for bevelled walls, not for
529 diggable elements like sand; "inner_corners" only works reliably for
530 static walls, not for in-game dynamically changing walls using CEs.)
533 * finished code cleanup of native Supaplex game engine
536 * started code cleanup of native Supaplex game engine
539 * integrated playing sound effects into native Supaplex game engine
542 * added configurable key shortcuts for the tape recorder buttons
545 * added (hidden) function to save native Supaplex levels with tape as
546 native *.sp file containing level with demo (saved with a file name
547 similar to native R'n'D levels, but with ".sp" extension instead of
548 ".level"); to use this functionality, enter ":save-native-level" or
549 ":snl" from the main menu with the native Supaplex level loaded and
550 the appropriate tape loaded to the tape recorder
551 * fixed potential crash bug caused by illegal array access in engine
552 snapshot loading and saving code
553 * changed setting permissions of score files to be world-writable if
554 the program is not installed and running setgid to allow the program
555 to modify existing score files when run as a different user (which
556 allows cheating, of course, as the score files are not protected
557 against modification in this case)
558 * added (commented out) suggestions for RO_GAME_DIR and RW_GAME_DIR to
559 the top level Makefile for Debian / Ubuntu installations
560 * added saving read-only levels from editor into personal level set
561 (thanks to Bela Lubkin for the above four patches)
564 * added updating of game values on the panel to Supaplex game engine
567 * finished integrating R'n'D graphics engine into Supaplex game engine
568 (although some animations do not support full customizability yet)
571 * done integrating R'n'D graphics engine into file "Infotron.c"
572 * done integrating R'n'D graphics engine into file "OrangeDisk.c"
575 * integrated engine snapshot functionality into Supaplex game engine
578 * fixed bug in native Supaplex engine that broke several demo solutions
579 * fixed bug with re-initializing already existing elements in function
580 RelocatePlayer() in src/game.c (causing problems with Sokoban fields
581 counted a second time, making the currently playing level unsolvable)
582 * done integrating R'n'D graphics engine into file "SnikSnaks.c"
583 * done integrating R'n'D graphics engine into file "Electrons.c"
584 * done integrating R'n'D graphics engine into file "Zonk.c"
587 * done integrating R'n'D graphics engine into file "Murphy.c"
588 * done integrating R'n'D graphics engine into file "BugsTerminals.c"
591 * started integrating R'n'D graphics engine into Supaplex game engine
594 * added small kludge that allows transparent pushing animation over
595 non-black background (by using "game.use_masked_pushing: true")
596 * added editor flag to Sokoban field/object elements to automatically
597 finish solved Sokoban style levels (even if they contain non-Sokoban
598 elements, which prevents auto-enabling this feature for such levels)
601 * added new element "from_level_template" which is replaced by element
602 from level template at same playfield position when loaded (currently
603 not accessible from level editor, but only used for special Sokoban
604 level conversion when using "special_flags: load_xsb_to_ces")
605 * added special behaviour for "special_flags: load_xsb_to_ces": global
606 settings of individual level files are overwritten by template level
607 (except playfield size, level name, level author and template flag)
610 * added handling of gravity ports when converting Supaplex style R'n'D
611 levels to native Supaplex levels for playing with Supaplex engine
614 * fixed bug in Supaplex engine regarding initial screen scroll position
617 * fixed EMC style pushing animations in the R'n'D graphics engine (when
618 using ".2nd_movement_tile" for animations having start and end tile)
619 * for this to work (look) properly for two-tile pushing animations with
620 non-black (i.e. opaque) background, the pushing graphics drawing order
621 was changed to first draw the pushed element, then the player (maybe
622 this should be controlled by an ".anim_mode" flag yet to be added)
623 * two-tile animations for moving or pushing should have 7 frames for
624 normal speed, 15 frames for half speed etc. to display correct frames
625 * two-tile animations are also displayed correctly with different speed
626 settings for the player (for pushing animations) or moving elements
629 * added searching for template level (file "template.level") not only
630 inside the level set directory, but also in above level directories;
631 this makes is possible to use the same single template level file
632 (placed in a level group directory) for many level sub-directories
635 * fixed bug with steel exit being destructible during opening phase
636 * added token "special_flags" to "levelinfo.conf" (currently with the
637 only recognized value "load_xsb_to_ces", doing the same as the flag
638 "-Dload_xsb_to_ces" on the command line, but as a permanent flag for
639 converting all elements in native (XSB) Sokoban level files to CEs)
642 * fixed some problems with Supaplex engine when compiling for Windows
645 * added special mode to convert elements of Sokoban XSB levels to CEs
646 by adding "-Dload_xsb_to_ces" to the command line starting the game
647 (also adding a dependency to a template level file "template.level")
650 * added reading native Sokoban levels and level packages (XSB files)
653 * fixed bugs in (auto)scrolling behaviour when passing ports or when
654 wrapping around the playfield through "holes" in the playfield border
657 * changed internal playfield bitmap handling from playfield sized bitmap
658 to screen sized bitmap (visible scrolling area), therefore speeding up
659 graphics operations (by eliminating bitmap updates in invisible areas)
660 and removing playfield size limitations due to increasing bitmap size
661 for larger playfield sizes (while the new implementation always uses
662 a fixed playfield bitmap size for arbitrary internal playfield sizes)
665 * fixed bug with single step mode (there were some cases where the game
666 did not automatically return to pause mode, e.g. when trying to push
667 things that cannot be pushed or when trying to run against a wall)
670 * added support for loading Supaplex levels in MPX level file format
673 * fixed SP engine to set "game over" not before lead out counter done
676 * fixed (potential) compile error when using GCC option "-std=gnu99"
677 (thanks to Tom "spot" Callaway)
680 * fixed array allocation in native Supaplex engine to correctly handle
681 preceding scratch buffers (needed because of missing border checking)
682 * fixed playfield initialization to correctly add raw header bytes as
683 subsequent scratch buffer (needed because of missing border checking)
686 * most important parts of native Supaplex engine integration working:
687 - native Supaplex levels can be played in native Supaplex engine
688 - native Supaplex level/demo files ("*.sp" files) can be re-played
689 - all 111 classic original Supaplex levels automatically solvable
690 - native Supaplex engine can be selected and used from level editor
691 - logic of re-playing Supaplex demos migrated to R'n'D tape logic
694 * fixed another translation problem from VisualBasic to C (where "int"
695 should be "short") causing unsolvable demos with bugs and terminals
696 ("bugs" being related to the Supaplex "buggy base" element here ;-) )
699 * fixed bug when reading Supaplex single level files (preventing loader
700 from seeking to level position like in Supaplex level package files)
703 * first classic Supaplex level running and solved by solution/demo tape
706 * started with integration of native Supaplex engine, using source code
707 of Megaplex from Frank Schindler, based on original Supaplex engine
710 * version number set to 3.2.6.2
713 * version 3.2.6.1 released
716 * fixed bug with element_info[e].gfx_element not being initialized in
717 early game stage, causing native graphics in EMC level sets to be
718 mapped completely to EL_EMPTY (causing a blank screen when playing)
719 (this only happened when starting the program with an EMC set with
720 native graphics, but not when switching to such a set at runtime)
723 * deactivated blit-to-same-surface workaround again (see 2009-03-24)
724 and using self-compiled, patched SDL.dll that solves this problem
725 (interim solution until release of SDL 1.2.14 that should fix this)
728 * extended backwards compatibility mode to allow already fixed bug with
729 change actions (see "2008-02-05") for existing levels (especially the
730 Zelda and Zelda II levels and other cool stuff by Alan Bond like FMV)
733 * reactivated workaround to prevent program crashes due to blitting to
734 the same SDL surface that apparently only occurs on Windows systems
735 (this is no final solution; this problem needs further investigation)
738 * version number set to 3.2.6.1
741 * version 3.2.6.0 released
744 * fixed behaviour of player option "no centering when relocating" which
745 was incorrect when disabled and relocation target inside visible area
746 and "no scrolling when relocating" enabled at the same time
749 * fixed problems with re-mapping players on playfield to input devices:
750 previously, players found on the level playfield were changed to the
751 players connected to input devices (for example, player 3 in the level
752 was changed to player 1 (using artwork of player 3, to be able to use
753 a player with a different color)); this had the disadvantage that CE
754 conditions using player elements did not work (because the players in
755 the level definition are different to those effectively used in-game);
756 the new system uses the same player elements as defined in the level
757 playfield and re-maps the input devices of connected players to the
758 corresponding player elements when playing the level (in the above
759 example, player 3 now really exists in the game and is moved using the
760 events from input device 1); level tapes still store the events from
761 input devices 1 to 4, which are then re-mapped to players accordingly
762 when re-playing the tape (just as it is done when playing the level)
765 * fixed bug with player relocation while the player switches an element
768 * fixed bug with EM/DC style exit and EM/DC style steel exit which was
769 not walkable (and did not let the player enter) when in process of
770 opening, but not fully open yet (which can cause the player not being
771 able to enter the exit in EM/DC style levels in time)
774 * fixed some bugs regarding the new level/CE random seed reset options
777 * moved "level settings" and "editor settings" to two tabbed screens in
778 level editor to gain space for additional level property settings
779 * added level setting to start a level with always the same random seed
780 * added CE action "set random seed" to re-initialize random seed in game
781 (this is the only CE action that gets executed before the CE changes,
782 which is needed to use the newly set random seed during the CE change)
785 * fixed redraw problem of special editor door when playing from editor
788 * fixed initialization of gfx_element for level sketch image creation
791 * added switch for EM style dynamite "[ ] explodes with chain reaction"
792 (with default set to "on" for existing levels, but "off" for all new
793 levels), as EM style dynamite does not chain-explode in original EM
796 * added optional initial inventory for players (pre-collected elements)
797 * added change page actions "set player inventory" and "set CE artwork"
798 * added recognition of "player" parameter on change pages when player
799 actions are defined, but no trigger player in corresponding condition
800 (this resulted in actions that only affected the first player before)
801 * fixed bug with change actions being executed for newly created custom
802 elements resulting from custom element changes, when the intention was
803 only to check for change actions for the previous custom element
806 * changed design and size of element drawing area in level editor
807 * added "element used as action parameter" to element change actions
810 * added possibility to reanimate player immediately after his death
811 (for example, by "change to <player> when explosion of <player>")
814 * fixed bug with "gray" white door not being uncovered by magnifier
815 * added score for collecting (any) key to the white key config page
818 * added condition "deadly when <getting hit by>" for custom elements
819 that behaves a bit like the existing "deadly when <colliding with>",
820 but with the following differences:
821 - it only kills players or friends when it was moving before it hits
822 - it does not kill players or friends that try to run into it
825 * fixed the following change conditions where a player element is used
826 as the "element that is triggering the custom element change":
829 - explosion of <element>
831 (the last two conditions already worked partially, but only for the
832 first player, and not for the "Murphy" player when using "move of")
835 * fixed crash bug caused by accessing invalid element (with value -1)
836 in UpdateGameControlValues()
837 * fixed graphical bug when using two-tile movement animations with EMC
838 game engine without explicitly using native EMC graphics engine
841 * fixed bug in new "can dig" feature (see below) so that an unsuccessful
842 try to push something (due to push delay) does not cause a dig action
845 * fixed bug with reference elements used as trigger elements on custom
846 element change pages not being recognized
847 * fixed bug with reference elements not being removed from the playfield
848 * added engine functionality that allows custom elements that "can dig"
849 other elements not only to do so when moving by themselves, but also
850 when being pushed by the player (therefore adding the functionality to
851 push one element over another element, replacing it with the new one)
854 * added command line function to write level sketch images to directory
857 * merged override and auto-override options into new override options
858 with a new data type than can take the values "no", "yes" and "auto"
861 * fixed growing steel wall to also leave behind steel wall instead of
862 normal, destructible wall
863 * fixed handling of rocks falling through stacks of quicksand with
864 different speed (before, the rocks just got stuck in the quicksand)
867 * fixed nasty bug with auto-override and normal override not working on
868 program startup (especially when current level set has custom artwork)
871 * version 3.2.5 released as special edition "R'n'D jue"
874 * fixed X11 crash bug when blitting masked title screens over background
877 * changed build system to support special editions (like "R'n'D jue")
878 * added (hardcoded) loading graphics for "R'n'D jue" special edition
879 * fixed X11 crash bug when scaling images with width/height less than 32
882 * added "background.PLAYING" (only visible as two-pixel border in game)
883 * added default level set for first start of special R'n'D version
884 * changed door animations for editor always behaving like "quick doors"
887 * added new custom artwork setup option "auto-override non-CE sets" for
888 automatic artwork override that is only used for level sets without
889 custom element artwork (as it does not make much sense to override
890 any artwork that redefines custom element artwork for sets using CEs)
891 * fixed default artwork for "special" R'n'D versions always using the
892 "classic" artwork as the base if base artwork is not explicitly
893 defined in "levelinfo.conf", regardless of different default artwork
894 used by the special R'n'D version -- this is needed because any such
895 custom artwork is designed using the "classic" artwork definitions as
896 the base (including menu definitions and screen positions etc., which
897 would otherwise be taken from the different special default artwork)
900 * fixed drawing of animated "quicksand.filling" and "quicksand.emptying"
901 for both EMC and R'n'D graphics engine (heavy workarounds needed due
902 to massively broken handling of quicksand in R'n'D game engine)
903 * fixed off-limits access to array in DrawLevelFieldCrumbledSandExt()
904 * fixed crash bug (hopefully) when scrolling with cursor keys in editor
907 * fixed small bug in toon drawing (introduced when fixing the crash bug)
910 * added graphics definition "game.panel.highscore" to display the
911 current levels current high score in the game panel
914 * version number set to 3.2.5
917 * version 3.2.4 released
920 * fixed crash bug in toon drawing functions for large step offset values
923 * fixed some problems with displaying game panel when quick-loading tape
926 * fixed (experimental only) redrawing of every tile per frame (even if
927 unneeded) for the extended (R'n'D based) EMC graphics engine
928 * added optimization to only calculate element count for panel display
929 if really needed (that is, if element count values defined on panel)
930 * fixed problem with special editor door redraw when entering main menu
933 * fixed bug with displaying background for title messages on info screen
934 * some code cleanup for the extended (R'n'D based) EMC graphics engine
937 * fixed bug with CE action "move player" always resulting in player 4
938 if there was a CE action with no trigger player (because the player
939 element was calculated by using log_2() from trigger player bits with
940 the value PLAYER_BITS_ANY) -- this is now fixed by also storing the
941 triggering player bit mask and handling all players in "move player"
942 * fixed bug when defined artwork cannot be found for artwork that has
943 default artwork cloned from other artwork (without default filename)
944 * added several fixes to the extended (R'n'D based) EMC graphics engine
947 * fixed broken editor copy and paste for custom elements between levels
950 * title messages are now also searched in graphics artwork directory;
951 those found in graphics directory have precendence over those found
952 in level directory -- this handles title messages stored in graphics
953 directories as part of the artwork set, just like title images; this
954 makes sense, as corresponding special font definitions for messages
955 are usually defined in the same graphics artwork directory, and also
956 because title images and title messages that are combined in a level
957 set introduction should usually not be separated when the level set
958 is used with a different artwork set (e.g. using "override graphics")
959 * fixed problem with door borders on main screen by first drawing doors
960 and then the corresponding border masks, but not vice versa
961 * fixed problem with artwork config entries using the value "[DEFAULT]";
962 this does not what one might expect, but sets the value to an invalid
963 value -- solution: simply ignore such entries, which results in this
964 value keeping its previous (real) default value (in general, entries
965 that should use their default value should just not be defined here)
966 * fixed problem with wrong fading area size from main menu to setup menu
969 * fixed problem with broken crumbled graphics after level set changes
970 when using R'n'D custom artwork with level sets using the EMC engine
973 * fixed invisible "joysticks deactivated ..." text on setup input screen
976 * added use of hashes created from static lists (element tokens, image
977 config, font tokens) to speed up lookup of configuration parameters
978 * fixed bug where element and graphic config token lookup was mixed up
981 * added "busy" animation when initializing program and loading artwork
982 * added initialization profiling for program startup (debugging only)
985 * fixed(?) very strange bug apparently triggered by memset() when code
986 was cross-compiled with MinGW cross-compiler for Windows XP platform
987 (this only happened when using SDL.dll also self-compiled with MinGW)
990 * added graphics engine directive "border.draw_masked_when_fading" that
991 enables/disables drawing of border mask over screen that is just faded
994 * fixed small problem with separate fading definition for game screen
997 * added additional configuration directives for setup screen draw offset
998 menu.draw_xoffset.SETUP[XXX] and menu.draw_yoffset.SETUP[XXX] with XXX
999 in GAME, EDITOR, GRAPHICS, SOUND, ARTWORK, INPUT, SHORTCUTS_1,
1000 SHORTCUTS_2, CHOOSE_ARTWORK, CHOOSE_OTHER (where "CHOOSE_ARTWORK" is
1001 used to define draw offset on custom artwork selection screens and
1002 "CHOOSE_OTHER" is used on all other list style selection screens, like
1003 choosing game speed or screen mode for fullscreen mode)
1004 * added additional configuration directives to define main menu buttons:
1005 - menu.button_name and menu.button_name.active
1006 - menu.button_levels and menu.button_levels.active
1007 - menu.button_scores and menu.button_scores.active
1008 - menu.button_editor and menu.button_editor.active
1009 - menu.button_info and menu.button_info.active
1010 - menu.button_game and menu.button_game.active
1011 - menu.button_setup and menu.button_setup.active
1012 - menu.button_quit and menu.button_quit.active
1013 * added eight pure decoration graphic definitions for the game panel
1016 * added support for accessing native Diamond Caves II level packages
1017 * fixed displaying of game panel values for Emerald Mine game engine
1018 * fixed displaying end-of-level time and score values on new game panel
1021 * added game panel control to display arbitrary elements on game panel
1022 * added game panel control to display custom element score (globally
1023 unique for identical custom elements) either as value or as element
1024 * added ".draw_masked" and ".draw_order" to game panel control drawing
1027 * fixed some general bugs with handling of ".active" elements and fonts
1030 * cleanup of game panel elements (some elements were not really needed)
1031 * added displaying of gravity state (on/off) as new game panel control
1032 * added animation for game panel elements (similar to game elements)
1035 * added new pseudo game mode "PANEL" to define panel fonts and graphics
1036 - panel fonts now use ".PANEL" suffix instead of ".PLAYING" suffix
1037 - panel graphics now use ".PANEL" suffix instead of ".DOOR" suffix
1038 (else graphics would have to use ".PLAYING", which would be confusing)
1039 * fixed bug when fading out to game screen with border mask defined
1042 * added attribute ".tile_size" for element style game panel controls
1045 * added <space> key as additional valid key to use for confirm requester
1048 * improved menu fading, adding separate fading definitions for entering
1049 and leaving a "content" screen (in general), and optional definitions
1050 for the special "content" screens SCORES, EDITOR, INFO and PLAYING
1053 * added (currently invisible) setup option to define scroll delay value
1054 * fixed small bug in priority handling when auto-detecting level start
1055 position in levels without player element (but player from CE etc.)
1056 * added option "game.forced_scroll_delay_value" to override user choice
1057 of scroll delay value for certain level sets with "graphicsinfo.conf"
1058 * replaced setup option "scroll delay: on/off" by new setup option that
1059 directly allows selecting the desired scroll delay value from 0 to 8
1062 * added displaying of most game panel control elements (not animated)
1065 * added new configuration directives to display additional game engine
1066 values on the game control panel, like the following examples:
1067 - game.panel.time_hh/time_mm/time_ss - level time in HH/MM/SS format
1068 - game.panel.penguins - number of penguins to rescue
1069 - game.panel.level_name - level name of current level
1072 * added support for preview tile sizes "1" and "2" (1x1 and 2x2 pixels)
1075 * added new player option "no centering when relocating" for "invisible"
1076 teleportations to level areas that look exactly the same, giving the
1077 illusion that the player did not relocate at all (this was the default
1078 since 3.2.3, but caused visual problems with room creation in "Zelda")
1079 * added new menu fading effect "melt", shamelessly stolen from "DOOM"
1082 * improved menu fading, adding separate fading definitions for entering
1083 and leaving a menu and for fading between menu and "content" screens
1084 * fixed small bug with recognizing also ".font_xyz" style definitions
1087 * improved menu fading, adding separate fading definitions for fading
1088 between menu screens and fading between menu and "destination" screens
1091 * titlemessage_initial_x and titlemessage_x set to "[DEFAULT]" in static
1092 configuration (set from "[titlemessage_initial]" and "[titlemessage]")
1093 * fading settings of "[titlemessage_initial]" and "[titlemessage]" set
1094 to "[DEFAULT]" in static configuration (set from "[title_initial]" and
1096 * improved title fading, allowing fading animation types "none", "fade"
1097 and "crossfade" (including cross-fading of last title to main menu)
1100 * added configurability of graphics, sounds and music for title screens,
1101 which are separated into initial title screens (only shown once at
1102 program startup) and title screens shown for a given level set; these
1103 title screens can be composed of up to five title images and up to
1104 five title text messages (each drawn using an optional background
1105 image), also using background music and/or sounds; aspects like
1106 background images, sounds and music of title screens can either be
1107 defined generally (valid for all title screens) or specifically (and
1108 therefore differently for each title screen) using these directives:
1110 to define a background image, sound or music file for all screens:
1111 - background.TITLE_INITIAL (for all title screens for game startup)
1112 - background.TITLE (for all title screens for level sets)
1114 to define a background image, sound or music file for a single screen:
1115 - background.titlescreen_initial_x (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
1116 - background.titlescreen_x (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
1117 - background.titlemessage_initial_x (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
1118 - background.titlemessage_x (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
1120 to define the title screen images:
1121 - titlescreen_initial_x (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
1122 - titlescreen_x (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
1124 to define the title text messages, place text files into the level set
1125 directory that have the following file names:
1126 - titlemessage_initial_x.txt (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
1127 - titlemessage_x.txt (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
1129 to define the properties of the text messages, either use directives
1130 that affect all text messages:
1131 - [titlemessage_initial].<suffix>
1132 - [titlemessage].<suffix>
1133 or use directives that affect single text messages:
1134 - titlemessage_initial_x.<suffix> (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
1135 - titlemessage_x.<suffix> (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
1137 valid values for <suffix> are the same as for readme.<suffix> below;
1138 use ".sort_priority" (default: 0) to define an arbitrary order for
1139 title images and title messages (which can therefore be mixed)
1142 * added full configurability of "readme.txt" screen appearance:
1143 - readme.x: <left position used with alignment>
1144 - readme.y: <top position>
1145 - readme.width: <maximim text width in pixels>
1146 - readme.height: <maximum text height in pixels>
1147 - readme.chars: <maximum number of chars per line>
1148 - readme.lines: <maximum number of lines displayed>
1149 - readme.align: left,center,right (default: center)
1150 - readme.top: top,middle,bottom (default: top)
1151 - readme.font: font name
1152 - readme.autowrap: true,false (default: true)
1153 - readme.centered: true,false (default: false)
1154 - readme.parse_comments: true,false (default: true)
1155 - readme.sort_priority: (not used here, but only for title screens)
1156 when "readme.chars" and/or "readme.lines" is set to "-1" (this is the
1157 default), they are automatically determined from "readme.width" and
1158 "readme.height" accordingly; when they are not "-1", they have
1159 precedence over "readme.width" and "readme.height"
1160 * added internal ad-hoc config settings for displaying text files like
1161 title messages or "readme.txt" style level set info files:
1162 - .font: font name (default: readme.font)
1163 - .autowrap: true,false (default: readme.autowrap)
1164 - .centered: true,false (default: readme.centered)
1165 - .parse_comments: true,false (default: readme.parse_comments)
1166 (the leading '.' and the separating ':' are mandatory here); to use
1167 these ad-hoc settings, they have to be written inside a comment, like
1168 "# .autowrap: false" or "# .centered: true"; these settings then
1169 override the above global settings (they can even be used more than
1170 once, like "# .centered: true", then some text that should be drawn
1171 centered, then "# .centered: false" to go back to non-centered text;
1172 important note: after using "# .parse_comments: false", or when using
1173 "readme.parse_comments: false", detecting and parsing comments inside
1174 the file is disabled and comments are just printed like normal text;
1175 also be aware that all automatic text size calculations are done with
1176 the font defined in "readme.font", while using different fonts using
1177 "# .font: <font>" inside the text file may cause unexpected results
1180 * changed some numerical limits in the level editor from 255 to 999
1183 * added option "system.sdl_videodriver" to select SDL video driver
1184 * added output of SDL video and audio driver to "version info" page
1187 * added group element drawing to IntelliDraw drawing functions
1188 * fixed animation resetting problem again (last try broke Snake Bite)
1189 * fixed diagonal scrolling in screen scrolling (last try broke Pac Man)
1192 * added new (special) "include: <filename>" directive that works in all
1193 configuration files (like "graphicsinfo.conf") and that has the same
1194 effect as if that directive would be replaced with the content of the
1195 specified file (this can be useful to split large configuration files
1196 into several smaller ones and include them from one main file, or to
1197 store configuration settings that always stay the same into a separate
1198 file, while including it and only add those parts that really change)
1201 * fixed minor bug (screen redraw of player tiles) in EMC graphics engine
1204 * fixed bug in "InitMovingField()" where treating an integer array as
1205 boolean caused wrong resetting of animations while elements are moving
1206 * fixed problem with resetting animations when starting element change
1209 * added sort priority for order of title screens and title messages
1212 * changed end of game again: do not wait for the user to press a key
1213 anymore, but directly ask/confirm tape saving and go to hall of fame
1214 * re-enabled quitting of lost game by pressing space or return again
1215 * added blanking of mouse pointer when displaying title screens
1216 * added remaining menu draw offset definitions for info sub-screens
1219 * added setup option to select game speed (from very slow to very fast)
1220 * improved handling of title text messages (initial and for level set)
1223 * added new options "auto-wrap" and "centered" for DC2 style envelopes
1226 * fixed displaying and typing of player name when it is centered
1227 * added special characters to be allowed for player name (not only A-Z)
1230 * fixed blit in ScrollLevel() to same bitmap to not overlap anymore
1231 (newer versions of the SDL library seem to not like this anymore)
1234 * added code for configuration directives for control of game panel
1237 * fixed small cosmetical bug with underlining property tabs in editor
1240 * fixed small drawing bug in X11FadeRectangle
1241 * added new elements for newly supported Diamond Caves II levels:
1242 - EM/DC style exits that disappear after passing
1243 - white key and gate (one white key needed for each white gate)
1244 - fake gate (there is no key to open/pass this kind of gate!)
1245 - extended magic wall which also handles pearls and crystals
1249 * changed maximum value for endless loop detection to a higher value
1250 (some levels really used very deep recursion without being endless)
1253 * added new elements for newly supported Diamond Caves II levels:
1254 - growing steel walls
1255 - snappable land mine
1258 * added new elements for newly supported Diamond Caves II levels:
1259 - steel text elements
1262 * added level file loader for native Diamond Caves II levels
1265 * version number set to 3.2.4
1268 * version 3.2.3 released
1271 * fixed malloc/free bug when updating EMC artwork entries in level list
1272 * added workaround (warning and request to quit the current game) when
1273 changing elements cause endless recursion loop (which would otherwise
1274 freeze the game, causing a crash-like program exit on some systems)
1277 * fixed nasty string overflow bug when entering too long envelope text
1280 * added feedback sounds for menu navigation "menu.item.activating" and
1281 "menu.item.selecting" (for highlighting and executing menu entries)
1284 * improved "no scrolling when relocating" to also consider scroll delay
1285 (meaning that the player is not automatically centered in this case;
1286 this makes it possible to "invisibly" relocate the player to a region
1287 of the level playfield which looks the same as the old level region)
1288 * fixed bug with not recognizing "main.input.name.align" when active
1291 * fixed bug with displaying masked borders over title screens when
1292 screen fading is disabled
1295 * fixed infinite loop / crash bug when killing the player while having
1296 a CE with the setting "kill player X when explosion of <player X>"
1297 * added special editor graphic for "char_space" to distinguish it from
1298 "empty_space" when editing a level (in-game graphics still the same)
1301 * fixed nasty bug with initialization only done for the first player
1304 * small change to handle loading empty element/content list micro chunks
1307 * uploaded pre-release (test) version 3.2.3-0 binary and source code
1310 * some optimizations on startup speed by reducing initial text output
1313 * added caching of custom artwork information for faster startup times
1316 * fixed graphical bug when using fewer menu entries on level selection
1317 screen than usual (with "menu.list_size.LEVELS" directive)
1318 * fixed crash bug (Windows/SDL only) caused by BlitBitmap blitting from
1319 the backbuffer to the backbuffer by error (with identical rectangle)
1322 * fixed bug when displaying titlescreen with size less than element tile
1323 * fixed bug that caused elements with "change when digging <e>" event
1324 to change for _every_ digged element, not only those specified in <e>
1325 * fixed bug that caused impact style collision when dropping element one
1326 tile over the player that can both fall down and smash players
1327 * fixed bug that caused impact style collision when element changed to
1328 falling/smashing element over the player immediately after movement
1331 * fixed bug that allowed making engine snapshots from the level editor
1334 * fixed bugs with player name and current level positions on main screen
1337 * added configuration directives for control of title screens:
1338 - "title.fade_delay" for fading time
1339 - "title.post_delay" for pause between screens (when not crossfading)
1340 - "title.auto_delay" to automatically continue after some time
1341 these settings can each be overridden by specifying them with titles:
1342 - "titlescreen_initial_{1-5}.{fade_delay,post_delay,auto_delay}"
1343 - "titlescreen_{1-5}.{fade_delay,post_delay,auto_delay}"
1344 fading mode can also be specified:
1345 - "titlescreen_initial_{1-5}.anim_mode: {fade,crossfade}
1346 - "titlescreen_{1-5}.anim_mode: {fade,crossfade}
1347 default is using normal fading for menues and initial title screens,
1348 while using cross-fading for level set title screens
1349 * fixed bug with background not drawn in Hall of Fame after game was won
1352 * added configuration directives for the remaining main menu items

1451 enhancement tool "True X-Mouse" (which injects key events to the event

1555 elements, replacing the previous "GRP1" chunk); these new IFF style
1556 chunks use the new and flexible "micro chunks inside chunks" technique
1557 already used with the new "CONF" chunk (for normal element properties)
1558 which makes it possible to easily extend the existing level format
1559 (instead of using fixed-length chunks like before, which are either
1560 too big due to reserved bytes for future use, or too small when those
1561 reserved bytes have all been used and even more data should be stored,
1562 requiring the replacement by new and larger chunks just like it went
1563 with "CUS1" to "CUS4"); this whole problem now does not exist anymore
1566 * added credits pages to the "credits" section that were really missing

1624 * fixed "grass" to "sand" in older EM levels (up to file version V4)
1627 * changed behaviour of network games with internal errors (because of

2726 2002-08-10 src/libgame/system.h
2727 * Default "snap" and "bomb" keys for Mac OS X set to left control key
2728 and keypad enter key -- Macs seem not to distinguish between left

2731 2002-08-10 src/libgame/sound.c
2732 * Fixed small NetBSD compilation bug.
2733 Thanks to Adam Ciarcinski for the bug report.
2735 2002-08-10 src/libgame/sound.c

2739 2002-08-10 src/libgame/sound.c
2740 * Bug fixed that caused regular crashes under SDL/Windows version.
2741 Mixer_InsertSound(): Always stop music before playing new music,

2746 * version number set to 2.1.1
2749 * version 2.1.0 released
2751 2002-05-31 src/libgame/image.c
2752 * Read_PCX_to_Pixmap(): Fixed bad memory leak by freeing "ximageinfo"

2754 This really showed up when reloading custom artwork several times.
2756 2002-05-20 src/libgame/sound.c
2757 * added support for 16 bit WAV sound files

2769 * Make Escape key less aggressive when playing or when editing level.
2770 This can be configured as an option in the setup menu. (Default is
2771 "less aggressive" which means "ask user if something can be lost"
2772 when pressing the Escape key.)
2774 2002-04-02 src/screen.c
2775 * Added "graphics setup" screen.
2777 2002-04-01 src/screen.c
2778 * Changed "choose level" setup screen stuff to be more generic (to
2779 make it easier to add more "choose from generic tree" setup screens).
2781 2002-04-01 src/config.c, src/timestamp.h
2782 * Added source files "src/config.[ch]" and "src/timestamp.h" (which
2783 automatically gets created by "src/Makefile" and contains an actual
2784 compile-time timestamp to identify development versions of the game).
2786 2002-04-01 src/libgame/misc.c
2787 * Added (currently incomplete) function "getKeyFromKeyName()" simply
2788 for orthogonality. When really needed, this function must be
2789 extended accordingly (analog to "getKeyFromX11KeyName()").
2791 2002-04-01 src/libgame/setup.c
2792 * Changed setup "TYPE_KEY" (internal, X11 style key symbol name) to
2793 "TYPE_KEY_X11" and added "TYPE_KEY" (human readable key symbol name).
2794 (This was needed for custom key setup handling in "src/screens.c".)
2796 2002-03-31 src/tape.c, src/events.c
2797 * Added quick game/tape save/load functions to tape stuff which can be
2798 invoked by a keyboard shortcut. Default: "F1" saves game/tape, "F2"
2799 loads previously recorded tape and directly goes into recording mode
2800 from the end of the tape (therefore appending to the tape).
2802 2002-03-31 src/tape.c
2803 * Added "index mark" function to tape recorder. When playing or
2804 recording, "eject" button changes to "index" button. Setting index
2805 mark is not yet implemented, but pressing index button when playing
2806 allows very quick advancing to end of tape (when normal playing),
2807 very fast forward mode (when playing with normal fast forward) or
2808 very fast reaching of "pause before end of tape" (when playing with
2809 "pause before end" playing mode).
2811 2002-03-30 src/cartoons.c
2812 * Moved some stuff from cartoons.c to the new "src/libgame/toons.c".
2814 2002-03-30 src/libgame/toons.c
2815 * New libgame source file "toons.c" for the program independant part
2818 2002-03-29 src/screen.c
2819 * Changed setup screen stuff to be more generic (to make it easier
2820 to add more setup screens).
2822 2002-03-29 src/libgame/setup.c
2823 * Changed "LoadLevelInfoFromLevelDir()" so that not only directories
2824 with level sub-directories are recognized, but also directories
2825 that directly contain level files.
2827 2002-03-29 src/libgame/sound.c
2828 * Changed "boolean stereo = TRUE;" to "static boolean stereo = TRUE;".
2829 (This was a bug that showed up only when in mono audio mode.)
2831 2002-03-24 src/libgame/x11.c, src/libgame/sdl.c, src/libgame/image.c
2832 * Changed image loading code to not exit on error, but set error by
2833 using "SetError()" accordingly. Image loading errors must now be
2834 catched by above layers (src/init.c for example).
2836 2002-03-24 src/libgame/misc.c
2837 * New functions "SetError()" and "GetError()" to provide more
2838 flexible error handling.
2840 2002-03-23 src/main.c, src/main.h
2841 * Various changes due to the introduction of the new libgame files
2842 "setup.c" and "joystick.c".
2844 2002-03-23 src/files.c
2845 * Generic parts of "src/files.c" (mainly setup and level directory
2846 stuff) moved to new libgame file "src/libgame/setup.c".
2848 2002-03-23 src/joystick.c
2849 * File "src/joystick.c" moved to libgame source tree, with
2850 correspondig changes.
2852 2002-03-23 src/libgame/system.c, src/libgame/system.h
2853 * Various changes due to the introduction of the new files "setup.c"
2856 2002-03-23 src/libgame/setup.c
2857 * New libgame source file "setup.c" that contains now most setup and
2858 level directory stuff previously handled in "src/files.c".
2860 2002-03-23 src/libgame/joystick.c
2861 * New libgame source file "joystick.c" that contains now all joystick
2862 stuff previously handled in "src/joystick.c" of "Rocks'n'Diamonds".
2864 2002-03-22 src/screens.c
2865 * "HandleChooseLevel()": Another bug in level series navigation fixed.
2866 (Wrong level series information displayed when entering main group.)
2868 2002-03-22 src/editor.c
2869 * Slight change to support new gadget event "GD_EVENT_INFO_LEAVING".
2871 2002-03-22 src/editor.c
2872 * Changed behaviour of "Escape" key in level editor to be more
2873 intuitive: When in "Element Properties" or "Level Info" mode,
2874 return to "Drawing Mode" instead of leaving the level editor.
2876 2002-03-22 src/libgame/misc.c, src/libgame/sound.c
2877 * Added command line option "-s" / "--sounds" and "-m" / "--music"
2878 to specify alternative sound and music directories. (The former
2879 shortcut "-s" for "--serveronly" has changed accordingly.)
2881 2002-03-22 src/libgame/gadgets.c
2882 * Added new gadget events for displaying gadget info texts:
2883 "GD_EVENT_INFO_ENTERING" and "GD_EVENT_INFO_LEAVING". Before,
2884 the info text callback function was only called when entering
2885 a gadget (implicit "GD_EVENT_INFO_ENTERING"). But the info text
2886 was never erased. This can now be done by checking the event type
2887 in the info callback function.
2889 2002-03-21 src/game.c, src/editor.c, src/files.c
2890 * 2.0.1 introduced the corrected "Emerald Mine" style behaviour of
2891 gems (emeralds, diamonds, ...) slipping down from normal wall,
2892 steel wall and growing wall (as in E.M.C. style levels). Although
2893 the behaviour of contributed and private levels wasn't changed (due
2894 to the use of "level.game_version"; see previous entry), editing
2895 those levels will (of course) change the behaviour accordingly.
2897 This change seems a bit too hard after thinking about it, because
2898 the EM style behaviour is not the "expected" behaviour (gems would
2899 normally only slip down from "rounded" walls). Therefore this was
2900 now changed to an element property for gem style elements, with the
2901 default setting "off" (which means: no special EM style behaviour).
2902 To fix older converted levels, this flag is set to "on" for pre-2.0
2903 levels that are neither contributed nor private levels.
2905 2002-03-20 src/files.h
2906 * Corrected settings for "level.game_version" depending of level type.
2907 (Contributed and private levels always get played with game engine
2908 version they were created with, while converted levels always get
2909 played with the most recent version of the game engine, to let new
2910 corrections of the emulation behaviour take effect.)
2912 2002-03-20 src/main.h
2913 * Added "#include <time.h>". This seems to be needed by "tape.c" for
2914 compiling the SDL version on some systems.
2915 Thanks to the several people who pointed this out.
2917 2002-03-20 src/libgame/gadgets.c
2918 * "va_arg(ap, boolean)" changed to "(boolean)va_arg(ap, int)";
2919 this caused problems especially on PowerPC architecture (although
2920 it is wrong on i386 and other architectures, too)
2922 2002-03-20 src/libgame/pcx.c, src/libgame/image.c
2923 * Added support for loading and displaying true-color PCX files.
2925 2002-03-20 src/libgame/misc.c, src/libgame/x11.c
2926 * Added command line option "-g" / "--graphics" to specify an
2927 alternative graphics directory.
2930 * Version number set to 2.0.2.
2933 * Version 2.0.1 released.
2935 2002-03-19 src/libgame/system.c, src/libgame/sdl.c [src/tools.c]
2936 * Moved function "GetPixel()" from src/tools.c ("Mirror Magic" code)
2937 to libgame source files; needed for SDL fullscreen bug workaround
2940 2002-03-18 src/screens.c
2941 * "HandleChooseLevel()": Small bug in level series navigation fixed.
2943 2002-03-18 src/files.c [src/libgame/misc.c]
2944 * Moved some common functions from src/files.c to src/libgame/misc.c.
2946 2002-03-18 src/files.c [src/libgame/misc.c]
2947 * Changed permissions for new directories and saved files (especially
2948 score files) according to suggestions of Debian users and mantainers.
2949 Thanks to Drew Parsons <dparsons@emerall.com> for the patch.
2951 2002-03-18 src/libgame/misc.c [src/files.c]
2952 * Moved some common functions from src/files.c to src/libgame/misc.c.
2954 2002-03-18 src/libgame/misc.c [src/files.c]
2955 * Changed permissions for new directories and saved files (especially
2956 score files) according to suggestions of Debian users and mantainers.
2957 Thanks to Drew Parsons <dparsons@emerall.com> for the patch.
2959 2002-03-17 src/files.c
2960 * Changed "{Load|Save}{Level|Tape}()" to IFF style file format:
2961 Replaced "cookie" header string ("ROCKSNDIAMONDS_...\n") with
2962 real IFF style header "RND1....XXXX" (where "XXXX" is "CAVE"
2963 for levels and "TAPE" for tapes). Old "cookie" style format is
2964 still supported for reading. New level and tape files are written
2967 * New IFF chunk "VERS" contains version numbers for file and game
2968 (where "game version" is the version of the program that wrote the
2969 file, and "file version" is a version number to distinguish files
2970 with different format, for example after adding new features).
2972 2002-03-17 src/libgame/sound.c
2973 * Bug in "StopMusic()" fixed: SDL_mixer functions may be called
2974 even when sound not available.
2975 Thanks to Drew Parsons <dparsons@emerall.com> for the patch.
2977 2002-03-15 src/screen.c
2978 * "DrawHallOfFame()": "FadeSounds()" when entering the hall of fame.
2979 (Before, you heard a mixture of the in-game music and the
2980 hall-of-fame music.)
2982 2002-03-15 src/libgame/sound.c, src/libgame/platform.h
2983 * Added /dev/dsp (streaming audio) support for NetBSD (instead of the
2984 /dev/audio (ulaw) based Unix audio interface).
2985 Thanks to Krister Walfridsson <cato@df.lth.se> for the patches.
2987 2002-03-15 src/libgame/sdl.c
2988 * Workaround for fullscreen bug in WIN32 version of SDL (at least
2989 in the currently actual version 1.2.3) by using "standard" screen
2990 resolutions like 800x600 and mapping all input (mouse events) and
2991 output (screen drawing) accordingly.
2993 2002-03-14 src/events.c
2994 * Function "DumpTape()" (files.c) now available by pressing 't' from
2995 main menu (when in DEBUG mode).
2997 2002-03-14 src/game.c
2998 * "GameWon()": When game was won playing a tape, now there is no delay
2999 raising the score and no corresponding sound is played.
3001 2002-03-14 src/files.c
3002 * Changed "LoadTape()" for real chunk support and also adjusted
3003 "SaveTape()" accordingly.
3005 2002-03-14 src/game.c, src/tape.c, src/files.c
3006 * Important changes to tape format: The old tape format stored all
3007 actions with a real effect with a corresponding delay between the
3008 stored actions. This had some major disadvantages (for example,
3009 push delays had to be ignored, pressing a button for some seconds
3010 mutated to several single button presses because of the non-action
3011 delays between two action frames etc.). The new tape format just
3012 stupidly records all device actions and replays them later. I really
3013 don't know why I haven't solved it that way before?! Old-style tapes
3014 (with tape file version less than 2.0) get converted to the new
3015 format on-the-fly when loading and can therefore still be played;
3016 only some minor parts of the old-style tape handling code was needed.
3017 (A perfect conversion is not possible, because there is information
3018 missing about the device actions between two action frames.)
3020 2002-03-14 src/files.c
3021 * New function "DumpTape()" to dump the contents of the current tape
3022 in a human readable format.
3024 2002-03-14 src/game.c
3025 * Small tape bug fixed: When automatically advancing to next level
3026 after a game was won, the tape from the previous level still was
3027 loaded as a tape for the new level.
3029 2002-03-14 src/tape.c
3030 * Small graphical bug fixed: When pressing ""Record" or "Play" on
3031 tape, cartoons did not get completely removed because
3032 StopAnimation() was not called.
3034 2002-03-13 src/files.c
3035 * Changed "LoadLevel()" and "SaveLevel()" to add new chunk "CNT2".
3036 Fixed bug of "CONT" and "BODY" (chunk size was set to 8-bit element
3037 size even when using 16-bit elements). Added new chunk "CNT2" for
3038 16-bit amoeba content (previously written in 8-bit field in "HEAD"
3039 chunk even when content was 16-bit element). "CNT2" should now be
3040 able to store content for arbitrary elements (up to eight blocks of
3041 3 x 3 element arrays). All "CNT2" elements will always be stored as
3042 16-bit elements. "CONT" (with 8/16-bit elements) now obsolete.
3044 2002-03-13 src/files.c
3045 * Changed "LoadLevel()" for real chunk support.
3047 2002-03-12 src/game.c
3048 * Fixed problem (introduced after 2.0.0 release) with penguins
3049 not getting killed by enemies
3051 2002-02-28 src/libgame/sound.c
3052 * Fixed small problem with new SDL_Mixer 1.2.1:
3053 Mix_VolumeMusic() must be called _after_ Mix_PlayMusic(),
3054 or it has no effect.
3056 2002-02-24 src/game.c, src/main.h
3057 * Added "player->is_moving"; now "player->last_move_dir" does
3058 not contain any information if the player is just moving at
3060 Before, "player->last_move_dir" was misused for this purpose
3061 for the robot stuff (robots don't kill players when they are
3062 moving). But setting "player->last_move_dir" to MV_NO_MOVING
3063 broke tapes when walking through pipes!
3064 ("IS_MOVING()" uses "MovPos[][]", but this fails when it is 0
3065 in a continuous movement. This fact is ignored for friends and
