New/changed features:

  • Changed make.rb options for choosing colours. New options are e.g. -fgcol:black -bgcol:yellow -bordercol:fg -inputcol:lightgrey -cursorcol:lightblue -dmfgcol:blue -dmbgcol:ltgreen. See the manual for details.
  • No more colour replacing, as all 16 colours of the c64 palette are now always available. A game can use the extra colours too (colour 8-15 in the C64 palette are colour 16-23 in the Z-code palette).
  • Specified the cost in bytes for some features in the instructions printed by make.rb when invoked without parameters.
  • Updated the manual section on dependencies.

Optimizations:

  • Commented out a few lines of code meant for debug in zmachine.asm

Bugfixes:

  • Overwriting save files had been broken for many months, but we didn't know. Fixed it now.
  • Fixed broken PRNG initialization for X16.
  • Zeropage location $ab was used to remember if text output is buffered on C64, MEGA65 and Plus/4, but this address was actually unsafe to use on all of these platforms. Changed it to $c8 on C64/MEGA65 and $d0 on Plus/4.
  • Zeropage location $a7 was used to remember current window on C64/MEGA65 and Plus/4. This was breaking compatibility with fastload module of Action Replay cartridge on C64. Changed to use $d8 on all three platforms.
  • make.rb will now stop user from accidentally specifying two different story files.
  • Changed File.exists to File.exist in make.rb, as the latter is correct, and the former isn't supported in newer Ruby versions.
  • Removed option -scale 2 for xemu (X16 emulator), as this could wreck havoc on some screens.
