- v1.0
-
- By Ernest Yale (C) 1990
-
-
- -=( Call MicroMania! BBS )=-
-
- (514-844-2746) FidoNet: 167/106
-
-
-
-
-
- 1. Instructions:
- ------------
-
- Blocks Door is a great "Tetris-kind" Door for any BBS system. I'm
- running QuickBBS but it should work perfectly on any BBS system.
-
- For a fast-try, type "BLOKDOOR 0" at the DOS prompt. Make sure your
- ANSI driver is resident in memory.
-
- These files are included in the Blocks Door package:
-
- BLOKDOOR.EXE
- BLOKDOOR.001
- BLOKDOOR.002
- BLOKDOOR.003
- BLOKDOOR.004
- BLOKDOOR.005
- BLOKDOOR.CTL
- BLOKDOOR.DOC
- BLOKDOOR.REG
- READ.ME
- CALLTHEM.BBS
-
- The file BLOKDOOR.TOP will be created the first time. This is
- the structure of the BLOKDOOR.CTL control file:
-
- line 1:- MicroMania! BBS ; Name of your BBS
- line 2:- 514-844-2746 ; Phone number (XXX-XXX-XXXX)
- line 3:- Ernest Yale ; Name of the Sysop
- line 4:- 0 ; Password for registrated copies
- line 5:- 10 ; Minimum amount of minutes to play
- line 6:- 120 ; Seconds before "Wake Up!" message
-
- 2. Featutes:
- --------
-
- Blocks Door has some great Features! Blocks Door reads the
- DORINFO1.DEF user file if the "/D" switch is used, but it will
- work perfectly without DORINFO1.DEF. A user identification line
- (on the bottom of the screen) will appear if the "/D" switch is
- used.
-
- 2.1 Menu Driven:
- -----------
-
- The Door is all Menu Driven. Choose your option in the main
- menu with the arrows (NUMLOCK pressed). This is a great option
- for a door!
-
- 2.2 Carrier Detection:
- -----------------
-
- If the carrier is lost, Blocks Door will exit and return to your
- BBS. The carrier detection works perfectly!
-
- 2.3 Wake Up!:
- --------
-
- If the user only fall asleep (after x seconds, line 6 of the control
- file), a Wake Up! message will be displayed, and Blocks Door will
- exit to the BBS.
-
- 2.4 Time Limit exceeded:
- -------------------
-
- If the DORINFO1.DEF file is readed, Blocks Door will exit when
- the Time Limit of the user will be expired.
-
- Example: If a user has a 60 minutes time limit, and has used
- 40 minutes before entering Blocks Door, after 20 minutes
- in the Door, the "Time Limit Exceeded" message will
- appear. (Never while playing a game)
-
- 2.5 High Scores:
- -----------
-
- The Top 20 scores are keeped in the BLOKDOOR.TOP file. When a
- user qualify for the Top 20, Blocks Door ask him his name and
- his name is inserted in the Top 20.
-
- 2.6 Number of Games played:
- ----------------------
-
- The total number of games played is recorded in BLOKDOOR.TOP and
- shown during a game.
-
- 2.7 Abort a Game:
- ------------
-
- By pressing <ESC> you can abord your game.
-
- 2.8 Sysop aborts Game:
- -----------------
-
- While the door is waiting for a keypressed, press "ALT-Q" to return
- to the BBS. (Sysop aborts the game)
-
-
-
- -=( Installation )=-
-
-
- Installation of Blocks Door is very easy. You only have to execute
- BLOKDOOR.EXE with one of these Command Line Parameter:
-
- - BLOKDOOR.EXE /D ; execute Blocks Door and reads DORINFO1.DEF
- user stats file.
-
- - BLOKDOOR.EXE 0 ; execute Blocks Door in local mode.
-
- - BLOKDOOR.EXE 1 ; execute Blocks Door on COM1
-
- - BLOKDOOR.EXE 2 ; execute Blocks Door on COM2, (also 3 and 4).
-
-
