[v1.8] Opening screen displays InterBBS: Inactive even when it is
active. Only affects the opening screen display!
If a player quites the Door after playing ONE complete game,
the player's score was doubled.
A NEW option has been added to the CFG file to control whether
or not you wish to have the door LOG callers (ON/OFF) to a
USAGE file. A separate file is created for each Node.
01/23/96
[v1.7] ALIAS option NOT operating correctly.
When entering a message, the body of the message was being
converted to upper case. With this version we will not
convert to upper case.
Added 'last date played' to Bulletins for NON-InterBBS only
If a Player logged on prior to midnight on the last day of the
month and plays past midnight on the 1st of the new month, the
monthly maintenance routine would 'kick in' during the players
logon.
The scoring routine has been re-written. The scoring will be
as follows:
(a) Player is given 2500 points at tstart of each game
(b) Player loses 50 points for each NON-Match
(c) Player loses 100 points for each attempt at solving the
puzzle that results in an incorrect answer.
(d) When puzzle is solved, player is awarded the remining
points. Minimum points is 100.
(e) If player (Q)uits the game, no points are awarded.
07/01/95
[v1.6] Error # 55 generated after sending a message followed by a
player displaying the High Scores.
06/29/95
[v1.5] Added a NEW option that will allow the player to send/read a
message to any other game players. The player will also be
given the option of replying to a message they have just read.
All messages will be maintained within the Door itself and will
have no connection to the BBS message bases.
Added another CFG option to control the new message option
The InterBBS program creates a Prior Month Top 10 file. The
file will be displayed whenever the player requests a High
Score display and/or at door exit, if the .T10 file is found
in the Door directory!
01/08/95
[v1.4] Eliminated the 'ANSI not detected....' message since there are
a few communications packages out there that give off their
own type of ANSI.
If using the TRIBBS.SYS system file, the door always presented
the opening screen in black and white. Will now be presented
in color.
A first time caller to the Door was being given a black and
white screen throughout the Door. The caller would then have
to use the Door option to toggle the color on. The Door will
now default to having the color turned on and the caller will
have to use the color toggle, on the game menu, to turn it off.
The Door knows that the caller is the Sysop, if the caller is
record #1 in the BBS' user database. The BBS software passes
that record number to the door via the system file. Some BBS
software does not pass the actual record number but passes a
relative number (ie: record #1 is passed as record #0). If the
number being passsed is 0, the Door will not know it is the
Sysop calling. We will now recognize the caller as the Sysop
if their record number is 0 or 1.
As more and more BBS' use Alias', we have been asked to
provide a way for the callers to use their Alias' rather
than their LogonName. All Sunrise Doors will now have this
Sysop configurable option in the CFG file.
If participating in an InterBBS game, the number of games per
day will NOT be overridden by the security specific entries in
the CFG file.
08/09/94
[v1.3] A new option has been added to the CFG file to control the
number of high score entries you wish to be displayed when
the player chooses the appropriate option OR when they are
leaving the game. There is no maximum/minmum that can be
displayed OR you can use ZERO(0) to display ALL entries.
If the XXXX/YYYY entries in the CFG file were entered in
LOWERCASE, the Door would display a CFG error and return to BBS
Using a NEW entry in the CFG, you can now define the number of
months to retain in the HALL of FAME files.
Added a new option to the playing menu that allows the player
to toggle the Color On/Off.
You will have to run a conversion program called USREXPND
(included in the Door ZIP file). This program is to be run ONCE
ONLY if you are upgrading from an earlier version of the Door.
If you do not wish to run the conversion program you can just
delete the .USR file (deleting the USR file causes the game to
start over with all prior scores being lost).
Added a BONUS to the scoring. At start of game player is given
1000 BONUS points. That number is reduced by 50 for each
attempt to match a pair of boxes AND for each guess made to
solve the puzzle.
04/05/94
[v1.2] There has been some confusion on the part of players as to how
they can escape from the game when they are in the
"Enter Guess" portion of the game, after the program determined
that there weren't anymore moves available. There never was a
way to do that.. this version will now allow the player to use
the backslash (\) to escape from the game, back to the BBS.
There have also been some reports that the program was not
displaying a hidden digit (just blanks). We have attempted to
find this bug but have not been successful. We have added some
program code to try and ensure that blanks can not show up....
please report any occurances of this happening (be sure to
mention which digit was coming up blank).
03/12/94
[v1.1] Past problems with large values in the Door.Sys or other System
Files (Drop Files) generating an OVERLOW (Error 6) error, have
been resolved.
When the Door displays the opening screen, it asks if you want
instructions and you are forced to enter a Y or N. This was
installed to handle problems encountered when using Digiboards.
With this release you can choose whether you want to force a
y/n OR if you want to use the y/N format which allows the
player to press ENTER for the default N. You must update your
CFG file, see DOC file.
Cleaned up some esthetic problems with non-InterBBS bulletins

[v1.0] New version.
