Re: Pre-release 4 of Rocks'n'Diamonds 4.4.0.0 available!

That's the crash bug as described by ncrecc, and it's fixed now. Thanks Very strange. Could you please try if this also happens if you temporarily rename your ~/.rocksndiamonds/setup.conf file (that contains the setup settings), that is, test this case with all setup settings completely reset to de...

Keyboard shortcuts to change game speed

Currently in a 'debug' compile there's a feature that can change game speed via a keyboard shortcut. This could be put in non-debug version too. Although, there could be some changes to make it easier to mess with like: Change shortcuts to be a switch to speed, instead of the current toggle between ...

Re: Possible work-around for continuing in middle of tape playback issue

It seems that the [] STOP |> PLAY restore has a tiny bit of extra time right after the cut stopping point that it shouldn't have, and that's why doing this making sure not moving at same point for cut point for both types of restores works around the issue. Also that it seems this work around doesn'...

However as of this post there's a bug in R'n'D with this. That's interesting. So far, I was sure that the method described above produce...

Re: loading tapes in supaplex while dead may freeze the game

Just tried this, It's not exactly frozen, but still processing something at like 100000 FPS using 100% CPU usage of a single core/thread (not stopping), and can still exit the level with ESC. (Using Linux)

Re: Pre-release 3 of Rocks'n'Diamonds 4.4.0.0 available!

For the pushing picture, There was an exit there I barely pressed to the right to get into the exit, but it looks like the player kept on going to try to push the rock(even though I didn't press to the right anymore) after the game hid the exit. See "RnD Boulder Dash - Level finished but still ...

Re: Pre-release 3 of Rocks'n'Diamonds 4.4.0.0 available!

Just to be totally sure (as you were also surprised by the uncovering animation of BD style levels): You do not mean the "hatching" delay when the "inbox" (where the player starts) is blinking until the level really starts? During that time, the player indeed cannot be moved (bu...

Re: Moving windows around causes [essentially] blank display when R'n'D is running. [KZones script addon issue?]

Ah. Well, just simple `apt-cache rdepends libsdl2-2.0-0` actually does an adequate job, listing a perfectly sensible ~250 packages that you could test the hypothesis with...
