zoooom found that if you use the rope to Climb down
a closed pit then strange things happen.
The Atari code I translated checks for a pit. Does
not check for open. If there is a pit then the Climb
succeeds and the party is moved forward one cell.
This could be changed if there were a great outcry.
I cannot see that it is important enough to make CSBwin
different from the Atari version.
I don't know. When you play the game, the opening
menu says "V2.0". I don't think it is worth my time
to try and find the original binary that I translated. It
is on some very old backup disk somewhere; but it
would be a long search, I fear.
Whoa, that's pretty old. They got to version 3.6 on PC and Amiga, not sure how far on Atari. I suspect this bug doesn't exist in the later versions, will check it out.
I did notice this ages ago but assumed it was one of those quirks. If it is an easy fix I owuld say fix it, otherwise people should't be climbing down floors anyway!
