[v2.7] 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.
Runners on 1st and 2nd, player hits into a double play and the
game was showing runners left on 2nd and 3rd. It will now show
a runner on 3rd only.
02/04/96
[v2.6] ALIAS option was NOT working properly.
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.
When runners are on 2nd and 3rd and you draw a walk, the
program was not moving a player onto 1st base and was not
acknowledging that there was a runner on 1st base if the
player had enough hits to score that runner.
When a runner was caught stealing, the out, although recorded
internally, was not be displayed on the score board until the
next batter was out.
When a runner stole home, the run was not being credited to the
team at bat.
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.
07/01/95
[v2.5] Error # 55 generated after sending a message followed by a
player displaying the High Scores.
06/22/95
[v2.4] 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!
In the NON-IBBS mode the scores were not being sorted properly
and by doing this caused the High Scores to be cut off before
the entire list was displayed.
01/08/95
[v2.3] 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.
08/05/94
[v2.2] 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).
03/12/94
[v2.1] 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.
When displaying the scores in an InterBBS environment, the
players with a Percentage of .000 were being sorted near the
top of the scores list. They will now sort properly.
Bulletins that were being created did not contain the Baseball
Dice name in the heading.
01/10/94
[v2.0] Hall of Fame bulletin was not being created at end of month.
"String Space Corrupt" error when running in an InterBBS
environment and more than 10 users were in the score file
12/16/93
[v1.9] Introducing an INTER-BBS option whereby players may compete
against players from any number of other BBS', running
Baseball Dice.. See Docs for a more indepth explanation as
well as an explanation of the new CFG option.
Added a MAKE-UP-PLAYS feature that allows the caller to makeup
game plays they may have missed during the current month. This
will afford those callers that do not call every day, an equal
chance to compete with callers that play every day.
Automatic game reset will take place when the first caller of
the month plays the game. Two Hall of Fame bulletin files will
be created (SUNHOF.ANS and SUNHOF.ASC) and all scores cleared.
Be sure to read the Documentation!!!
Non-registered version will automatically reset the player's
scores anywhere from the 17th thru 29th day of use
06/19/93
[v1.8] Removed delay at start of game.
The option to refresh the screen has been changed from
an * to a #.
Now supports the PCBoard /M version!
03/12/93
[v1.7] When there were runners on 2nd and 3rd AND the player chose
to BUNT(Sacrifice) it showed Sacrifice as a legitimate
option and it should not have...
If you entered a zero for number of Hiscore entries, in your
config file, no hiscores were being recorded/reported. If you
now enter a value less than 5, it will default to 50.
Now supports Comm Ports 0-15
Callers will be required to answer the "Want Instructions.."
question with a Y or N. This was required to circumvent a
problem encountered when running under WildCat's IM version.
01/05/93
[v1.6] There was a bug in the new option to allow Sysop to play
99 games or not.... it was ignoring the entry and
forcing 99 games.
12/23/92
[v1.5] BRUN45.EXE is no longer required!
Added support for Fossil based Multi-port cards!
New Configuration option to allow Sysop to choose whether
they want the computer to allocate 99 games to them or if
they just want to be like any other caller.
10/15/92
[v1.4] Well, looks like the few reports I received about the game
not handling WALKS too well have been well founded (not
that I doubted it at all <g>). I actually did make a change
that affected the WALKS... sorry to those that will have to
download this again.
10/12/92
[v1.3] Added support for TRIBBS software. We now access the
TRIBBS.SYS system file directly!
After a CHAT or DROP-TO-DOS the game screen will now be
restored to its original state.
In registered version, if you put in 0 for play time, it
would translate to 15 minutes. Changed to default to logon
time remaining.
You can now define 9 members of a team, by name. This will
constitute the roster and each player, in turn, will be
shown as the batter. See Docs for more info about the file
name and content restrictions.
The computer's score will now be displayed inning by inning,
rather than all at once a tthe beginning of the game. This
should make it more of an interesting game!
06/18/92
[v1.2] You can now use an environmental variable for Non-Standard
IRQs. This will eliminate the need to have multiple batch
files to execute the door. See DOCs under NON-STANDARD COM
SUPPORT for details.
You can now use environmental variables, on the first line
of the configuration file. This will eliminate the requirement
that you create an individual configuration file for each node
in a multinode environment (ONE config file for ALL nodes!!).
See DOCs under MULTI-NODE SETUP for details.
Made some changes to fix the TIMEOUT errors encountered
when usinga 486 with/without DesqView. Need feedback !!
Made some changes to correct the Error #6 (Overflow Error)
when using SpitFire version 3.2/SFDOORS.DAT. I need some
feedback on this one as well!
Added support for GT Power's GTUSER.BBS file. To use this
you will be required to add to lines to your configuration
files. Please see Docs for changes. Need some feedback on
this as well!
03/19/92
[v1.1] Certain messages were not being cleared form the screen
when a new game was started.
03/19/92
[v1.0] Initial release
