- [v4.0] High scores not being displayed at end of game.
-
- Changes made to several internal routines.
-
- 08/01/91
- [v3.9] After the completion of the Bonus round, the High scores
- display once and then you are asked if you want to see
- them again. This annoying "bug" had been around a while.
-
- If you do not answer the Bonus puzzle, the answer will be
- displayed, same as the regular puzzles.
-
- Daily and Hall of Fame bulletins were not being updated.
- Problem started in the last release...
-
- 07/18/91
- [v3.8] 3If ANSI not detected, caller has option to contimue or
- return to BBS. No longer denies access to game, outright!
-
- If Sysop uses the door, he/she is not restricted to
- answering a limited number of puzzles per day. He/she
- may answer all puzzles the door is configured for.
- Registered version ONLY!
-
- Added support for Wildcat! v3.0 (See Docs.. Config file!)
-
- Added support for WWIV BBS' (See Docs.. Config file [untested])
-
- Under certain circumstances the program would hang the system
- after displaying the ADOPT-A-DOOR screen
-
- 07/06/91
- [v3.7] Under certain circumstances, usually after all puzzles
- have been answered, the program was adding points
- accumulated from solving the 'last' puzzle, to the players
- score in the high score file.
-
- 06/30/91
- [v3.6] If you run out of guesses or only vowels remain and you
- guess the puzzle incorrectly, the correct answer will
- now be displayed.
-
- "Sorry...Incorrect" was not printing correctly.
-
- If you opted to guess the puzzle, while you still had
- chances remaining and you guessed incorrectly, the
- program was not letting you continue guessing letters
- or spinning the wheel. I believe I found this little
- "bug". If not please let me know.
-
- 06/11/91
- [v3.5] When using the LEVELS option, you still had to have 250
- points to buy a vowel. Vowel costs will now use the same
- percentage as the point values when using the LEVELS option.
-
- Added support for non-standard IRQ numbers (other than
- IRQ3/IRQ4). See docs for implementation.
-
- 05/04/91
- [v3.4] Door would hang, in local mode, when returning to BBS.
-
- 03/24/91
- [v3.3] When presented with the "Press ENTER or E to exit" message,
- pressing E caused another "Perss ENTER to continue" message
- to appear. Eliminated the second "Press ENTER ..." message
- after you press an E to exit.
-
- When using DORINFOx.DEF, the door would stop at the start
- of the game and require a key press to continue.
-
- When using DORINFOx.DEF, the BBS NAME was not being picked
- up from the configuration file and was not picking up the
- correct NODE number from the configuration file.
-
- 03/10/91
- [v3.2] Any puzzle containing a period (.) did not work properly. It
- will now display correctly as well as allowing caller to
- answer a puzzle containing a period(.).
-
- Display was incorrectly showing that caller was to press a
- "+". It should show an "*".
-
- Top Score display was not centered... fixed
-
- Several problems related to the use of DORINFOx.DEF
- were corrected.
- 02/23/91
- [v3.1] Internal changes to speed up program.
-
- Corrected "hung system" when responding to a
- "Press ENTER to continue, E to end" message.
-
- 02/08/91
- [v3.0] Not displaying Adopt-A-Door screen in non-registered versions
-
- Internal routine changes.
-
- 01/13/91
- [v2.9] Added error trapping routines.
-
-
- 01/06/91
- [v2.8] In unregistered versions, the points earned when a valid
- letter is chosen, were not being added to the CURRENT points
- variable and therefore not being displayed. FIXED
-
- 01/03/91
- [v2.7] It has been brought to my attention that the speed at which
- the wheel spins is dependant upon the speed of the computer
- on which it is being run. The speed I had set was fine for a
- 286/12 computer. This speed actually put a caller to sleep if
- it was being run on an 8088 computer. To help adjust for the
- computer speed, I have added an option to the configuration
- file. The only value I can speak for is that of 12000, which
- works on my system, you will have to experiment.
-
- 01/01/91
- [v2.6] Problem with last display of instructions not remaining
- on screen.
-
- Several internal programming changes
-
- 12/29/90
- [v2.5] Added automatic ANSI checking, thus eliminating the
- opening screen request for input.
-
- "Warning x Minutes Remain...." message messed up the display.
- This message has been eliminated.

-
- 12/04/90

- to reduce the size of the ZIP which will result in a shorter

-
- 10/06/90
- [v1.8] WHEEL.EXE, WOFINIT.EXE, WOFPUZZL.EXE, and WOFIMPRT.EXE
- have been updated to handle the following enhancements:
-
- . CATEGORY description length increased to 20 characters
- . Categories are now contained in a database file (WHEEL.CAT)
- . Categories are now user defineable up to a maximum of 30
- . Categories database may be updated (Add/change/delete)
- programatically by using option 2 on the WOFMAINT menu
- . When entering puzzles you can choose from defined
- categories or you can use a temporary one (one-time use,
- will not be saved in the database)
- . Category names are no longer forced to uppercase when
- displayed. They will maintain the case as you entered it.
-
- Run WOFUPGR.EXE if upgrading from prior release!!!!
- 09/11/90
- [v1.7] The program used to handle EVENT processing and puzzle
- database maintenance, WHEELQ, has been replaced with
- WOFEVENT (to handle EVENT processing ONLY) and WOFMAINT
- (other database functions). See DOCs for changes!!
-
- When you recycle old puzzles back into the puzzle
- database or add new puzzles to the database or import a
- file into the database AND then you do a DUPLICATE check
- AND duplicates are found, the program was writing the
- new database back out with the category being the same
- for ALL puzzles. This has been corrected. You will have
- to manually fix the WHEEL.DAT file with your favorite
- EDITOR. Sorry for the inconvenience!
-
- Under certain circumsatnces, relating to vowels, the
- current score was not being updated properly nor was it
- being displayed correctly. Corrected!
-
- Due to several complaints, the use of the color BLUE
- has been eliminated.
-
- Re-installed the optional viewing of the High Score
- file, when exiting the game.
-
- 09/08/90
- [v1.6] Was miscalculating the time remaining, when starting
- the Bonus round, therefore always receiving the
- "not enough time" message. This should be fixed, if
- not please let me know!
-
- Was not allowing caller to answer Bonus puzzle if all
- puzzles were answered and the maximum number of puzzles
- were answered for the day.
-
- Added the ability to create a Top Score bulletin and a
- Hall of Fame bulletin. Two(2) new entrries required in
- configuration file (see DOCS)!
-
- If the last roll, prior to moving to a new puzzle, was a
- LOSE TURN or BANKRUPT, you would receive an ERROR #5.
- This has been corrected. If not please let me know!
-
- 09/02/90
- [v1.5] Docs changed to make the installation process a little
- less cumbersome.
-
- [v1.4] WHEELQ was not recognizing command line parameter telling
- it that it was running as an event.
- 09/01/90
-
- [v1.3] WHEELQ was not recognizing a configuration file name other
- than WHEEL.CNF. The change I made to handle that requires
- that you supply the name of the config file on the WHEELQ
- command line. In addition a change was made to the rest of
- the command line. Please read the DOCs for updated info!
-
- [v1.2] Possible problems with a couple of files. Not a major
- problem, but pulled back and re-packaged as v1.3.
-
- 08/31/90
- [v1.1] Top Scores were being inflated when retrieving a saved game
- (under certain circumstances). If you have hadthis problem
- reported to you, you can edit the WHEEL.SCO file with your
- favorite editor, and adjust those scores that were(or look
- like they were) inflated.
