- 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
