- CHANGES SINCE VERSION 1.0
- ─────────────────────────
- (1) SAVE FUNCTION - If you see an animation that you would like to save and
- give to a friend (or replay later), just press S during the animation.
- When FAROUT asks for a filename, just type the name of the file and the
- parameters will be stored in that file. Since only the parameters need
- to be stored in the file, these files will be very small in size (about
- 3000 bytes).
-
- (2) LOAD FUNCTION - To be used in conjunction with the SAVE FUNCTION above.
- When starting FAROUT, type FAROUT L and you will be prompted for a
- filename. Type the name of the parameter file and the animation will
- begin.
-
- (3) SCREENS - Due to popular request, the "duller" or simpler screens will
- appear MUCH less often.
-
- (4) SPEED - Most screens will develop faster than with version 1.0, however,
- animation speed will remain the same.
