Rocks'n'Diamonds

I guess you could A/B test by switching back to the previous theme and seeing if RnD gets sick again. And then, if proven, state what the 'bad' and 'good' themes are, which would give a basis for others to try to reproduce it... Unfortunately, I don't remember what the theme was set to before. But ...

Ops... I think I may have been wrong when I attributed this to Redshift, and it was just luck that it happened that way. The only thing that remained constant was that after reboots, starting R'n'D would cause a crashes, but after some point the crashing after trying to start R'n'D would stop, well ...

I managed to get redshift to do a transition when I set it to using a config file. But this isn't causing rocks'n'diamonds to crash at startup during the sunrise/sunset periods like the way I had done Redshift before. :? [redshift] dawn-time=HH:MM-HH:MM dusk-time=HH:MM-HH:MM temp-day=6500 temp-night...

If the above does work, it sounds like too much trouble to get working. Problem solved by deleting Kwin config files in ~/.config and /.local/share and a reconfiguration afterwards. Hmmm, sounds like just 'save and delete the relevant files in ~/.config and ~/.local/share; log in to KDE and see if ...

googling on the name of the function which is assert()ing, `epoxy_get_proc_address`, I find: https://github.com/anholt/libepoxy/issues/241, leading to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=433589 -- which 'solved' a similar problem by resetting KWin settings. I suggest trying that, keeping copies of...

There are three related Debian packages, redshift, redshift-gtk, redshift-qt. The latter being GUIs to the utility. I don't use these so I don't know if any of them stay running as a daemon. I think Bryan should start by clearly staying which of those is(are) in use. Second, the initial message tal...

Update: Forks Since 14 Jun 2020, Redshift development has been abandoned. Since 27 August 2023, Debian users are recommended to use gammastep, a Redshift fork, instead.[4][5][6] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redshift_(software)#Forks https://packages.debian.org/gammastep Guess I'll try out gammastep...

That sounds interesting (or strange, and should definitely not happen), and I would really like to try if I can reproduce this, but I don't know how! I am using KDE here (using the currently latest stable Kubuntu 24.04.3 LTS with KDE Plasma Version 5.27.12, Kernel 6.8.0-90-generic and X11), so it s...

Starting Rocks'n'Diamonds when redshift program is running causes R'n'D to crash. If Redshift is running, starting R'n'D results in R'n'D crashing. I think it has something to do with a program called Redshift and/or KDE's Night Light. Because if I exit Redshift (?and/or wait long enough?) R'n'D goe...

Yeah, it's really tricky (and a result of my approach to not require a unique "login" style account name). Finally, I plan to add a hook that makes it possible to rename your non-unique player name (like "anonymous" or "michael") not only in the game, but also for all ...

When playing back one tape on this level usually results in a bad tape that fails one way. But one time after playing some other levels, and going back it's tape playback kept doing a different bad tape playback(same one everytime?) than it's usual playback of this bad tape. I hadn't actually played...

Idea: Instead of these modes, do something like the "time limit" mode but instead of death of level playing at the end, how about a pop-up message saying something like "times up" asking if the player if they would like to 'continue level?', or 'restart level?', or if there is a ...

Leading zeros, and trailing zeros don't change the value of the number. Leading zeros are zeros that are on the leftmost of a number before the decimal place -> 00 1.1 is the same number as 1.1 Tailing zeros are zeros that are on the rightmost of a number after the decimal place -> 1.1 00 is the sam...

How are tapes with identical scores, etc sorted? Why is 6.8s is coming before 6.13s? Looking at the list some more it seems that it's sorted by decimal representation of the time N.N (no trailing zeros) via version sort instead of like it should being sorted by the unconverted binary values of the ...
