Fall Out, v2.1 HISTORY FILE by Dotoran
===========================================================================
=== v2.1 ===
- Updated to run under Cnet, v3.05!
- As a side note, it was brought to my attention that v2.0 of this game
made it onto the AmiNet CD (In the Excelsior Pfiles Directory). What
I thought was quite ODD was there was NO CNet directory on this CD?!?
Oh well, congrats to ME for getting something "immortalized" on CD!
=== v2.0 ===
- Upon giving the general premise of this game some thought, I started
the code from scratch using some of the more powerful Arexx commands
that just couldn't have been used with the original code format.
- The speed was DRAMATICALLY increased.
- I was able to catch almost ALL drop(fall) occurances, with the ex-
ception of ONE that I know of. If a series of stacked numbers spills
through a hole in row 9, the remainder of the stack will not fall
through and land in row 9. Simply moving row 9 nine spaces to the
left or right will update the screen, but at the cost of 1 turn. I
know this isn't fair, but it will have to do until I can figure out
how to fix this quirky error.
- The entire game screen, info, and even the instructions fit onto
one 80 column, 23 row screen.
- The game uses extensive ANSI codes and IBM graphics in its operation.
If you can run Global War, you can run this game!
=== v1.0 ===
- I modified the original code to better function under the Amiga Rexx
environment, added color and graphics, but it was still VERY slow and
would also not catch ALL drop(fall) occurances.
=== v.80 ===
- Original game file converted from BASIC from the following source:
`Tim Hartnells SECOND GIANT Book of Computer Games', (c) 1985
- This program was originally written for the old PET ASCII type of
computers.
- Upon conversion, it was VERY slow in operation.
