[v2.3] The "Your Response:" prompt was being displayed too close to
the menu bar line. Moved it down 1 line!
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.
If you (Q)uit the game right after leaving a message the program
would produce an Error 55
03/05/96
[v2.2] The DOC file and the sample CFG file did not include the last
entry in the CFG. The last entry controlled whether you wanted
to allow messages or not.
The unregistered version did not display the menu bar!
02/15/96
[v2.1] ALIAS option NOT working properly.
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.
01/18/95
[v2.0] 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.
08/11/94
[v1.9] 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
Changed the options selection from special characters (#!, etc)
to alpha characters.
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).
03/14/93
[v1.8] The Makeup days option and number of games played/remaining,
was not working properly if you left the game and came back
in to continue playing. You never lost any turns/games since
the turns/games would readjust the next day.
The Makeup days option and number of games played/remaining,
was not working properly if you left the game and came back
in to continue playing. You never lost any turns/games since
the turns/games would readjust the next day.
Non-registered version will automatically reset the player's
scores anywhere from the 22nd thru 29th day of use
Increased the number fo games per day allowed in the
non-registered version
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.
06/19/93
[v1.7] Changed the instructions presented to the user, to make it
a tad bit clearer as to how the game works.
Removed the delay at start of game
Added support for the PCBoard /M version!
03/12/93
[v1.6] Now supports Comm Ports 0-15
Hall of Fame routine was working only partially. Correct
player was listed in HOF, but with a blank score.
If no one played the door or if the highest score obtained
during the month was zero, the game will NOT show a Hall of
Fame entry for the month.
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.
Hall of Fame display was always displaying in color, regardless
of the color setting of the current session.
12/25/92
[v1.5] BRUN45.EXE 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.
Corrected an alignment problem with the SUNHOF.ASC/ANS files.
All entries, from this point on, will be aligned properly.
You will have to manually align the existing entries (after
the next monthly maintenance run).
The Hall of Fame list will now be displayed to the player
after the High Scores (if the SUNHOF.ANS is found and the
Door is registered)
10/14/92
[v1.4] 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.
A bug has existed in the monthly Hall of Fame routines
whereby the wrong player may have been credited with being
the high scorer for a particular month.
Added extra category files (XRTA2.CAT-XTRA5.CAT)
06/19/92
[v1.3] When using the 'play against the computer option' the program
was NOT displaying the words used correctly (option '$')
06/07/92
[v1.2] Sorry for the rash of updates, but had to fix these bugs!!
When quiting the game before completing a game, the Hiscores
would not display. Only showed the heading!
Was not displaying the correct number of games the caller
was allowed to play.
06/05/92
[v1.1] When changing to the internal method of creating the Hall of
Fame files (SUNHOF.ASC/.ANS), I neglected to provide a way
for you to copy them to a bulletin of your own name/location.
With this version I have added 2 entries to the CFG file that
allows you to define the Drive\Path\Filenames for these files.
06/01/92
[v1.0] Initial release
