* Mines: hack for rockbox polygon drawingFranklin Wei2020-12-07
|
* Add more config validity checksFranklin Wei2020-12-07
|
* Add method for frontends to query the backend's cursor location.Franklin Wei2020-12-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Rockbox frontend allows games to be displayed in a "zoomed-in" state targets with small displays. Currently we use a modal interface -- a "viewing" mode in which the cursor keys are used to pan around the rendered bitmap; and an "interaction" mode that actually sends keys to the game. This commit adds a midend_get_cursor_location() function to allow the frontend to retrieve the backend's cursor location or other "region of interest" -- such as the player location in Cube or Inertia. With this information, the Rockbox frontend can now intelligently follow the cursor around in the zoomed-in state, eliminating the need for a modal interface.
* Mines: add validation for negative mine count.Simon Tatham2020-03-17
| | | | | If this gets through validation, it causes an infinite loop after gameplay begins.
* Use C99 bool within source modules.Simon Tatham2018-11-13
| | | | | | | | | | This is the main bulk of this boolification work, but although it's making the largest actual change, it should also be the least disruptive to anyone interacting with this code base downstream of me, because it doesn't modify any interface between modules: all the inter-module APIs were updated one by one in the previous commits. This just cleans up the code within each individual source file to use bool in place of int where I think that makes things clearer.
* Replace TRUE/FALSE with C99 true/false throughout.Simon Tatham2018-11-13
| | | | | | This commit removes the old #defines of TRUE and FALSE from puzzles.h, and does a mechanical search-and-replace throughout the code to replace them with the C99 standard lowercase spellings.
* Adopt C99 bool in the game backend API.Simon Tatham2018-11-13
| | | | | | | | | | | encode_params, validate_params and new_desc now take a bool parameter; fetch_preset, can_format_as_text_now and timing_state all return bool; and the data fields is_timed, wants_statusbar and can_* are all bool. All of those were previously typed as int, but semantically boolean. This commit changes the API declarations in puzzles.h, updates all the games to match (including the unfinisheds), and updates the developer docs as well.
* Add a request_keys() function with a midend wrapper.Franklin Wei2018-04-22
| | | | | | | | This function gives the front end a way to find out what keys the back end requires; and as such it is mostly useful for ports without a keyboard. It is based on changes originally found in Chris Boyle's Android port, though some modifications were needed to make it more flexible.
* Make the code base clean under -Wwrite-strings.Simon Tatham2017-10-01
| | | | | I've also added that warning option and -Werror to the build script, so that I'll find out if I break this property in future.
* Return error messages as 'const char *', not 'char *'.Simon Tatham2017-10-01
| | | | | They're never dynamically allocated, and are almost always string literals, so const is more appropriate.
* Use a proper union in struct config_item.Simon Tatham2017-10-01
| | | | | | This allows me to use different types for the mutable, dynamically allocated string value in a C_STRING control and the fixed constant list of option names in a C_CHOICES.
* New name UI_UPDATE for interpret_move's return "".Simon Tatham2017-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Now midend.c directly tests the returned pointer for equality to this value, instead of checking whether it's the empty string. A minor effect of this is that games may now return a dynamically allocated empty string from interpret_move() and treat it as just another legal move description. But I don't expect anyone to be perverse enough to actually do that! The main purpose is that it avoids returning a string literal from a function whose return type is a pointer to _non-const_ char, i.e. we are now one step closer to being able to make this code base clean under -Wwrite-strings.
* Mines: show the number of safe squares left, if it's small.Simon Tatham2017-09-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is intended to make life easier for the _really_ dense grids in which the generator algorithm falls back to a bare clearing, a tightly packed section round the edges, and a fringe of deductions required in between. In that situation, you can deduce _in principle_ from the remaining- mines counter that there are (say) one, or two, squares left to be uncovered before everything remaining has to be a mine. And often the game will require that deduction in order to solve it all by pure logic. But actually doing it requires counting up the huge number of covered squares in an irregularly shaped area and subtracting the mine count in the status line, which is a real pain. In fact, people failing to do that are the biggest source of (wrong) bug reports about Mines games having no solution, so with any luck this will make my own life easier.
* Rework the preset menu system to permit submenus.Simon Tatham2017-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To do this, I've completely replaced the API between mid-end and front end, so any downstream front end maintainers will have to do some rewriting of their own (sorry). I've done the necessary work in all five of the front ends I keep in-tree here - Windows, GTK, OS X, Javascript/Emscripten, and Java/NestedVM - and I've done it in various different styles (as each front end found most convenient), so that should provide a variety of sample code to show downstreams how, if they should need it. I've left in the old puzzle back-end API function to return a flat list of presets, so for the moment, all the puzzle backends are unchanged apart from an extra null pointer appearing in their top-level game structure. In a future commit I'll actually use the new feature in a puzzle; perhaps in the further future it might make sense to migrate all the puzzles to the new API and stop providing back ends with two alternative ways of doing things, but this seemed like enough upheaval for one day.
* Giant const patch of doom: add a 'const' to every parameter in everySimon Tatham2013-04-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | puzzle backend function which ought to have it, and propagate those consts through to per-puzzle subroutines as needed. I've recently had to do that to a few specific parameters which were being misused by particular puzzles (r9657, r9830), which suggests that it's probably a good idea to do the whole lot pre-emptively before the next such problem shows up. [originally from svn r9832] [r9657 == 3b250baa02a7332510685948bf17576c397b8ceb] [r9830 == 0b93de904a98f119b1a95d3a53029f1ed4bfb9b3]
* Add 'const' to the game_params arguments in validate_desc andSimon Tatham2013-04-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | new_desc. Oddities in the 'make test' output brought to my attention that a few puzzles have been modifying their input game_params for various reasons; they shouldn't do that, because that's the game_params held permanently by the midend and it will affect subsequent game generations if they modify it. So now those arguments are const, and all the games which previously modified their game_params now take a copy and modify that instead. [originally from svn r9830]
* New rule: interpret_move() is passed a pointer to the game_drawstateSimon Tatham2012-09-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | basically just so that it can divide mouse coordinates by the tile size, but is definitely not expected to _write_ to it, and it hadn't previously occurred to me that anyone might try. Therefore, interpret_move() now gets a pointer to a _const_ game_drawstate instead of a writable one. All existing puzzles cope fine with this API change (as long as the new const qualifier is also added to a couple of subfunctions to which interpret_move delegates work), except for the just-committed Undead, which somehow had ds->ascii and ui->ascii the wrong way round but is otherwise unproblematic. [originally from svn r9657]
* Vary the behaviour of Mines's solve function depending on whether theSimon Tatham2012-06-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | user is already in the 'dead' state when they press it. If so, we reveal the rest of the mines in the grid as if it were the Windows Minesweeper 'you lose' display, which provides information showing what the user got wrong. (Otherwise they have to repeatedly flick back and forth between Solve and Undo if they want to work out which flag they placed wrongly.) If you press Solve while alive, however, the existing behaviour remains unchanged. (This feature was suggested by Clive Jones a couple of weeks after I first wrote Mines, and I've finally got round to doing it!) [originally from svn r9561]
* Changed my mind about midend_is_solved: I've now reprototyped it asSimon Tatham2011-06-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | midend_status(), and given it three return codes for win, (permanent) loss and game-still-in-play. Depending on what the front end wants to use it for, it may find any or all of these three states worth distinguishing from each other. (I suppose a further enhancement might be to add _non_-permanent loss as a fourth distinct status, to describe situations in which you can't play further without pressing Undo but doing so is not completely pointless. That might reasonably include dead-end situations in Same Game and Pegs, and blown-self-up situations in Mines and Inertia. However, I haven't done this at present.) [originally from svn r9179]
* Fix warnings generated by gcc 4.6.0 about variables set but notSimon Tatham2011-05-04
| | | | | | | | | | thereafter read. Most of these changes are just removal of pointless stuff or trivial reorganisations; one change is actually substantive, and fixes a bug in Keen's clue selection (the variable 'bad' was unreferenced not because I shouldn't have set it, but because I _should_ have referenced it!). [originally from svn r9164]
* Add a function to every game backend which indicates whether a gameSimon Tatham2011-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | | state is in a solved position, and a midend function wrapping it. (Or, at least, a situation in which further play is pointless. The point is, given that game state, would it be a good idea for a front end that does that sort of thing to proactively provide the option to start a fresh game?) [originally from svn r9140]
* Redo Mines and Inertia's mine graphics using an actual circle ratherSimon Tatham2009-09-13
| | | | | | | than an approximating octagon, to improve the look when zoomed to high resolution. [originally from svn r8646]
* Patches from James H to add or improve arrow-key-driven cursors forSimon Tatham2009-01-08
| | | | | | | some puzzles. (Light Up's and Net's are merely polished a bit, but Mines acquires a new one.) [originally from svn r8402]
* New infrastructure feature. Games are now permitted to beSimon Tatham2008-09-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | _conditionally_ able to format the current puzzle as text to be sent to the clipboard. For instance, if a game were to support playing on a square grid and on other kinds of grid such as hexagonal, then it might reasonably feel that only the former could be sensibly rendered in ASCII art; so it can now arrange for the "Copy" menu item to be greyed out depending on the game_params. To do this I've introduced a new backend function (can_format_as_text_now()), and renamed the existing static backend field "can_format_as_text" to "can_format_as_text_ever". The latter will cause compile errors for anyone maintaining a third-party front end; if any such person is reading this, I apologise to them for the inconvenience, but I did do it deliberately so that they'd know to update their front end. As yet, no checked-in game actually uses this feature; all current games can still either copy always or copy never. [originally from svn r8161]
* Dariusz Olszewski's changes to support compiling for PocketPC. ThisSimon Tatham2007-02-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | is mostly done with ifdefs in windows.c; so mkfiles.pl generates a new makefile (Makefile.wce) and Recipe enables it, but it's hardly any different from Makefile.vc apart from a few definitions at the top of the files. Currently the PocketPC build is not enabled in the build script, but with any luck I'll be able to do so reasonably soon. [originally from svn r7337]
* HTML Help support for Puzzles, with the same kind of automaticSimon Tatham2006-12-24
| | | | | | fallback behaviour as PuTTY's support. [originally from svn r7009]
* Mines's error signalling is highly asymmetric: if you erroneouslySimon Tatham2006-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | believe a square to be empty, you find out instantly and lethally, but if you erroneously believe a square to be full you can occasionally (when it doesn't cause a complementary square to be assumed empty) not notice until you find at the very end of the game that you're one mine heavy. To help with this, here's an error highlighting patch: any number square surrounded by an excess of flags will now light up red. This should be an unintrusive change, because it will never happen unless you make a mistake. [originally from svn r6580]
* Cleanup: remove the `just_used_solve' field from a number of gamesSimon Tatham2005-10-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | which didn't actually need it. It was originally introduced in Fifteen to suppress animation on Solve moves, but midend.c now does that centrally unless the game specifically instructs it otherwise. Therefore, just_used_solve is obsolete in all games which previously used it. (Mines was even worse: it scrupulously maintained the correctness of the field but never used it!) Untangle is exempt from this cleanup: its `just_solved' field is used to change the _length_ of the animation on Solve moves, not to suppress it entirely, and so it has to stay. [originally from svn r6419]
* Cleanup: it was absolutely stupid for game_wants_statusbar() to be aSimon Tatham2005-10-22
| | | | | | | | | function, since it took no parameters by which to vary its decision, and in any case it's hard to imagine a game which only _conditionally_ wants a status bar. Changed it into a boolean data field in the backend structure. [originally from svn r6417]
* Cleanup: remove the game_state parameter to game_colours(). No gameSimon Tatham2005-10-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | was actually using it, and also it wasn't being called again for different game states or different game parameters, so it would have been a mistake to depend on anything in that game state. Games are now expected to commit in advance to a single fixed list of all the colours they will ever need, which was the case in practice already and simplifies any later port to a colour-poor platform. Also this change has removed a lot of unnecessary faff from midend_colours(). [originally from svn r6416]
* Noticed recently that bitcount16() isn't 16-bit clean due to signedSimon Tatham2005-10-22
| | | | | | | | | | shift right. It doesn't actually matter in the current code since the input word only ever uses the bottom 9 bits, but if I ever extended Mines to work in a triangular grid then all 16 bits might be required. Fix this now, while I'm cleaning things up, so that it won't bite me unexpectedly in future. [originally from svn r6415]
* James H has implemented a new `Tricky' difficulty level in Light Up:Simon Tatham2005-09-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | a non-recursive level above Easy, which therefore moves the recursive Hard mode further up still. Play-testing suggests that in fact Tricky is often _harder_ than the old Hard mode, since the latter had limited depth of recursion and would therefore spot complex deductions only if it happened to start a recursion on the right square; Tricky may be limited in the sophistication of its complex deductions, but it never misses one, so its puzzles tend to be hard all over. Also in this checkin, a new source file `nullfe.c', containing all the annoying stub functions required to make command-line solvers link successfully. James wrote this for (the new) lightupsolver, and I've used it to simplify the other stand-alone solvers. [originally from svn r6254]
* Substantial infrastructure upheaval. I've separated the drawing APISimon Tatham2005-08-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | as seen by the back ends from the one implemented by the front end, and shoved a piece of middleware (drawing.c) in between to permit interchange of multiple kinds of the latter. I've also added a number of functions to the drawing API to permit printing as well as on-screen drawing, and retired print.py in favour of integrated printing done by means of that API. The immediate visible change is that print.py is dead, and each puzzle now does its own printing: where you would previously have typed `print.py solo 2x3', you now type `solo --print 2x3' and it should work in much the same way. Advantages of the new mechanism available right now: - Map is now printable, because the new print function can make use of the output from the existing game ID decoder rather than me having to replicate all those fiddly algorithms in Python. - the new print functions can cope with non-initial game states, which means each puzzle supporting --print also supports --with-solutions. - there's also a --scale option permitting users to adjust the size of the printed puzzles. Advantages which will be available at some point: - the new API should permit me to implement native printing mechanisms on Windows and OS X. [originally from svn r6190]
* Cleanups to completion flashes: all four of these games used toSimon Tatham2005-08-05
| | | | | | | | | redraw the whole window _every_ time game_redraw() was called during a flash. Now they only redraw the whole window every time the background colour actually changes. Thanks to James H for much of the work. [originally from svn r6166]
* Patches from Ben Hutchings to fix failures of sscanf error checking.Simon Tatham2005-07-29
| | | | [originally from svn r6147]
* game_timing_state() now has access to the game_ui. This means thatSimon Tatham2005-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | whether the timer is currently going is no longer solely dependent on the current game_state: it can be dependent on more persistent information stored in the game_ui. In particular, Mines now freezes the timer permanently once you complete a grid for the first time, so that you can then backtrack through your solution process without destroying the information about how long it took you the first time through. [originally from svn r6088]
* Subtle UI change to Mines. Although I mostly find the unified left-Simon Tatham2005-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | button interface (same button to open a closed square or to clear around an open one) to be a massive help, there is one circumstance in which it frequently kills me: if I click down on an open square I want to clear around, then the mouse pointer accidentally drifts over on to the nearest closed square before I release, I'll end up opening that square instead and (usually) dying. So this checkin causes Mines to note which type of square I left-clicked on, and to do nothing if the button release is on the other type. [originally from svn r6086]
* Add a `full' parameter to validate_params(), analogous to the one inJacob Nevins2005-07-05
| | | | | | | | | | | encode_params(). This is necessary for cases where generation-time parameters that are normally omitted from descriptive IDs can place restrictions on other parameters; in particular, when the default value of a relevant generation-time parameter is not the one used to generate the descriptive ID, validation could reject self-generated IDs (e.g., Net `5x2w:56182ae7c2', and some cases in `Pegs'). [originally from svn r6068]
* Enhancements to mkfiles.pl and Recipe to arrange for the auxiliarySimon Tatham2005-07-05
| | | | | | | | | | | command-line programs (solosolver, patternsolver, mineobfusc) to be built as part of the normal Makefiles. This means mkfiles.pl now has the capability to compile a source file more than once with different #defines. Also, fixes for those auxiliary programs and one fix in midend.c which the Borland compiler objected to while I was testing its makefile generation. [originally from svn r6066]
* Refactored the game_size() interface, which was getting reallySimon Tatham2005-07-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | unpleasant and requiring lots of special cases to be taken care of by every single game. The new interface exposes an integer `tile size' or `scale' parameter to the midend and provides two much simpler routines: one which computes the pixel window size given a game_params and a tile size, and one which is given a tile size and must set up a drawstate appropriately. All the rest of the complexity is handled in the midend, mostly by binary search, so grubby special cases only have to be dealt with once. [originally from svn r6059]
* draw_polygon() and draw_circle() have always had a portabilitySimon Tatham2005-07-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | constraint: because some front ends interpret `draw filled shape' to mean `including its boundary' while others interpret it to mean `not including its boundary' (and X seems to vacillate between the two opinions as it moves around the shape!), you MUST NOT draw a filled shape only. You can fill in one colour and outline in another, you can fill or outline in the same colour, or you can just outline, but just filling is a no-no. This leads to a _lot_ of double calls to these functions, so I've changed the interface. draw_circle() and draw_polygon() now each take two colour arguments, a fill colour (which can be -1 for none) and an outline colour (which must be valid). This should simplify code in the game back ends, while also reducing the possibility for coding error. [originally from svn r6047]
* General robustness patch from James Harvey:Simon Tatham2005-06-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | - most game_size() functions now work in doubles internally and round to nearest, meaning that they have less tendency to try to alter a size they returned happily from a previous call - couple of fiddly fixes (memory leaks, precautionary casts in printf argument lists) - midend_deserialise() now constructs an appropriate drawstate, which I can't think how I overlooked myself since I _thought_ I went through the entire midend structure field by field! [originally from svn r6041]
* Validation of random-state-type game descriptions was broken. ThisSimon Tatham2005-06-29
| | | | | | | meant that a Mines game saved before the first click had taken place could not be successfully reloaded. [originally from svn r6036]
* New {en,de}code_ui functions should be static. Oops.Simon Tatham2005-06-28
| | | | [originally from svn r6031]
* More serialisation changes: the game_aux_info structure has now beenSimon Tatham2005-06-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | retired, and replaced with a simple string. Most of the games which use it simply encode the string in the same way that the Solve move will also be encoded, i.e. solve_game() simply returns dupstr(aux_info). Again, this is a better approach than writing separate game_aux_info serialise/deserialise functions because doing it this way is self-testing (the strings are created and parsed during the course of any Solve operation at all). [originally from svn r6029]
* Another function pair required for serialisation; these ones saveSimon Tatham2005-06-28
| | | | | | | | | | | and restore anything vitally important in the game_ui. Most of the game_ui is expected to be stuff about cursor positions and currently active mouse drags, so it absolutely _doesn't_ want to be preserved over a serialisation; but one or two things would be disorienting or outright wrong to reset, such as the Net origin position and the Mines death counter. [originally from svn r6026]
* Annoying special cases for Mines.Simon Tatham2005-06-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Firstly, the `Restart' function now reconstructs an initial game state from the game description rather than dup_game(states[0]). This means that Restart in a game of Mines restarts to just _after_ the initial click, so you can resume the puzzle-solving part without having to remember where you placed that click. Secondly, the midend now contains a second `private' game desc, which is guaranteed to actually reconstruct the initial game_state correctly (which Mines's publicly visible game descs tend not to, since they describe a state which has already had the first click). This should make serialising of Mines more sensible. [originally from svn r6025]
* Re-architecting of the game backend interface. make_move() has beenSimon Tatham2005-06-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | split into two functions. The first, interpret_move(), takes all the arguments that make_move() used to get and may have the usual side effects of modifying the game_ui, but instead of returning a modified game_state it instead returns a string description of the move to be made. This string description is then passed to a second function, execute_move(), together with an input game_state, which is responsible for actually producing the new state. (solve_game() also returns a string to be passed to execute_move().) The point of this is to work towards being able to serialise the whole of a game midend into a byte stream such as a disk file, which will eventually support save and load functions in the desktop puzzles, as well as restoring half-finished games after a quit and restart in James Harvey's Palm port. Making each game supply a convert-to-string function for its game_state format would have been an unreliable way to do this, since those functions would not have been used in normal play, so they'd only have been tested when you actually tried to save and load - a recipe for latent bugs if ever I heard one. This way, you won't even be able to _make_ a move if execute_move() doesn't work properly, which means that if you can play a game at all I can have pretty high confidence that serialising it will work first time. This is only the groundwork; there will be more checkins to come on this theme. But the major upheaval should now be done, and as far as I can tell everything's still working normally. [originally from svn r6024]
* `Guess', a Mastermind clone from James Harvey. This checkin alsoSimon Tatham2005-06-23
| | | | | | | | introduces a few new utility functions in misc.c, one of which is the bitmap obfuscator from Mines (which has therefore been moved out of mines.c). [originally from svn r5992]
* Infrastructure change which I've been thinking about for a while:Simon Tatham2005-06-17
| | | | | | | the back end function solve_game() now takes the _current_ game_state in addition to the initial one. [originally from svn r5969]
