Rocks'n'Diamonds

... february is close ...

of course we know, Holger, that you're hard working on the em-engine, but the contributions 2004 would be nice to play anyways

the naming convention sounds a bit familiar to me.
Gentoo uses to compile both SDL and X11 versions and calls them rocksndiamonds.sdl and rocksndiamonds.x11 repectively.

But both work fine on my system.

Are you using Gentoo, or have you compiled it by hand?
Does the X11-version work?

Very elegant, indeed.

here's one of mine: http://semisane.de/rnd/tapes/puzzles/031.tape

* Level 8 lacks an emerald, or "gems required" is set too high"
* Level 30 lacks the exit

`004`080`004`007
`001`001`001`001
`001`025`001`001
`025`001`025`001
`025`001`001`025
`025`001`025`001
`001`025`001`001

Get 8 Gems.

(there are at least 2 different solutions)

Isn't it cute?

Now it's really a hard devision wheter an Athlon64 or this Mac mini will be my next computer...

* Level number is not displayed while playing (but was displayed in 3.2.0-0)

I was referring to the 99,9% compatibility for EM, BD and Supaplex roadmap which goes until 3.4.0

But of course with the compatibility for sokoban added 3.5.0 might be worth a discussion about calling it 4.0.0

The original Sokoban had a 1-step undo function (by pressing 'u'), which was imho quite nice to the player for correcting simple, obvious mistakes (as pushing a box accidentially at a wall). That's the lacking feature to make R'n'D 100% Sokoban-compatible :wink: The undo-key should only be active in...

* even if sound/music is turned off in the setup, RnD opens the sound device, this could be improved * The following elements are drawn as '?' in the game: emc_steelwall_1 emc_wall_13 emc_wall_slippery_1 *and while finding out their names I discovered another bug: clicking on a square with the mouse...

I lost one key release event, but I wasn't able to reproduce it (might be an external problem). Sorry, no tape.

> That's the right time for custom-defined key settings! Guess what I did ;) I was just a bit surprised, because I had hit some keys and no dynamite was placed, then I looked at the keyboard to search the right CTRL and ... found none. > Are there any problems to just define the "drop key" to be "Al...

sorry, i couldn't reproduce it. but I've only tested it with gcc 3.4.2, because I've found a ready package for this ;) Maybe I'll compile gcc 3.4.1 and try it again. Holger: btw. when playing some levels I had to find out that I couldn't place dynamite with the default-settings, because my sun-keybo...
