Rocks'n'Diamonds

Hi M3GG1RL, welcome to the R'n'D forum!

P.S.: And if it's your birthday today: Happy Birthday!

This probably belongs somewhere other than the 4406 announcement thread :) Correct -- just moved it to a separate topic. (Wanted to add a new "first post", containing a quick note what it's all about, but merging posts together always sorts posts by date and time of posting, so no luck he...

Blocked again? Trying to open that gets a popup: Unfortunately, yes! :( This time it's not by accident, but on purpose. I had to do it. AI scrapers were melting down my poor little server's CPU, without any chance of blocking by IP (every request comes from a different IP) or by User Agent string (...

levelset: pac-man

Please attach it here.

- What was written to the log file "rocksndiamonds.log"?
- Can the crash be reproduced? How exactly?

Holger, you said you added the feature of using the "Shift" key to change between steel and non-steel text elements. Can I ask, will this apply in both situations: a) at the time of adding the element to the level Yes, that's what I added. (But only for characters "A" to "Z...

Thank you!

- Which level set exactly? (Download link would be the best.)

Is there any way of accessing the next version, for testing/bug-finding, prior to its release? Currently not, but hopefully it will be available again soon. Usually I use special branches "master-next-minor-release", "master-next-patch-release" etc., but I do not regularly push ...

As TheOnyxGuy already wrote, be a bit more specific, please: - Which version? - Which platform? - Which level set exactly? (Download link would be the best.) - What was written to the log file "rocksndiamonds.log"? - Can the crash be reproduced? How exactly? Without any details, I cannot f...

Hi, there are quite some good points among your ideas and suggestions! :) Let's have a closer look at some of them: When the 'Enter Text Elements' button is active, could the arrow keys move the cursor, rather like how the Enter key does now, except the arrow keys would move the cursor one cell at a...

Just tested the this on the Mac, using a directory "TEST/Новая/rocksndiamonds-4.4.0.6" -- and it works just fine. :| I then tested the same on Linux -- no problems starting and running the game from this directory. And finally I tested this in my Windows 10 VM on my older intel based Mac -...

Just added this feature! Works like a charm!

Using the "Shift" key to change between steel and non-steel text elements seems to be a good idea indeed, and would make using a graphics set that has upper and lower case characters instead of normal and steel characters very easy.

And it should be easy to implement.

Wow, that's crazy! :o I thought that these were problems of the past, and that whatever user or directory names just work, regardless of them containing characters in Latin, Russian or Chinese (with the program just taking UTF-8 or Unicode characters and everything just works). Apparently not. :( I ...

Hi Eugene, that looks stange indeed! :o I just download the zip archive and unzip it into my profile, where I have a "Progs" folder created for such programs. Then I create a shortcut to the "rocksndiamonds.exe" file on my desktop. And everything works. Yes, that should work fine...

Indeed I was terribly wrong about my first assumptions! :shock: I should have tested my own old code before making such a statement (which was meant in a way "there's only one single directory that is intended to be created with world-writable permissions", and in fact I was just wrong abo...
