MineClone v1.1 by Nico Max, © 1994 ---------------------------------- This program is Giftware. This means that you can copy it for free as long as no profit is gain with it. If you use MineClone you should reward the author with a little gift. reqtools.library is © Nico François 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.
