What is MineClone?
------------------
Yes, still another clone of the well-known Minesweeper-style games.
Any Differences to other Minesweeper-style games?
-------------------------------------------------
I've tried to make it looking like the IBM Minesweeper, but includes
some features the Original is missing. (sizeable window, changeable size
of minefields) And another difference: it needs Kick 3.0. I wanted
it running on the workbench screen but with nice colors. But palette
sharing is only available under Kick 3.0.
Here's a list about MineClones's features:
- sizeable window
- variable size of fields
- nice GUI and colors (and a nice smiley :-)
- flashing fields
- choose bombs by number or percentage
- Saveclick-option, Automark-option
- global Automark-function, clearing all the trivial cases
- needs Kick 3.0 and reqtools.library
- written in E
How to install?
---------------
Copy the reqtools.library to your libs: directory and the font into
the fonts: directory.
Usage
-----
Well, simply click the Icon and have fun.
For restarting the game move the mouse up to the displays and click the
left mousebuttons. And at this position a menu with the following functions
is available:
Project
New Game - restarts the game
About - brings up an about-Requester
Quit - quits MineClone
Options
Automark all - looks through the whole minefield and selects all the
fields which are trivial.
Number of Bombs - choose real number of Bombs
Percentage - or by percent
Field width - choose width of all the fields
Field height - and height
Toggles
Automark - enables or disables automark. If automark is disabled
and you pick a touched field, MineClone shows the
untouched fields as long as you hold the left Mouse-
button.
Flashing - flashing on or off
Save Click - Save Click on or off
Request - Sure-Requester on or off. If you clicking the display
fields for starting a new game a requester may come
up or not.
Anything missing?
-----------------
This question is directed to you! If you want anything, please let me know.
