Have you fixed this yet? I want to see what happens after level 17!

I worked on it a little, along with some other things, but got sidetracked/deflected by some totally off-the-wall errors someone else found in something else.
Are you able to reproduce the bug on level 17? Or describe it in more detail; was it that you were very close to the constraints, or that they were totally out? (i was able to play through it myself just fine, though i recommend waiting until the new version because level 18 isn't going to make sense as it is I think).
I'll do a release tomorrow, regardless.
thanks for calling me on this; having a slow week...

On level 17 I was well within all of the victory constraints. I double and triple checked it and even cross-referenced against the Lua script.
I'll try it again tomorrow and see if it can be reproduced.

I'd love to write about this for TIGSource, but I'm stuck on level 7. I think I get it conceptually, but I'm having trouble making things work the way I'd like. So I went back to level 2 to try to figure it out, but now I can't even beat that level.  The problem is that I can get people to leave before the famine, but for some reason can't get them to go back. I've set the migration route, but they just won't budge. Can't remember how I beat it the first time (which may have just been luck). |

Nevermind, I figured it out! This is a really interesting game... it's working my brain in a new way!

Can't really say much about the game, as I haven't played it.
Could you compile it for 10.4? I tried but it looks complicated. Anyhow, I'll try again and report back.

Ok, I can replicate the problem on level 17.
Move the timeline quite close to the earliest point in history - maybe 7 pixels away. Then draw migration routes from Hlafw to the top four towns, and from Wlafu to the bottom four towns. Advance to time 0, and you get:
Our population Hlafw: 390,000
Their population Hlafw: 10,000
Our population Wlafu: 390,000
Their population Wlafu: 10,000
... or thereabouts. And it doesn't register a win.

Thanks lot for that, Bennett; I really appreciate it. I'll have a very close look at it after dinner. Can't really say much about the game, as I haven't played it.

As a rule I don't concern myself with versions pre-10.5. I can send you the xcode project files/makefile if you want to give it another go. (needless to say, if you do compile something, I would be cheerful, and happily redistribute it with your permission). |

ok, bennett, i tracked down the bug. turns out I was testing the win-condition at the penultimate time-slice instead of the last one (confusion with array bounds...my fault entirely).
I've uploaded the newer version there. It should work now. You might want to back up your config.lua file though...

Aw man. I really want to play this awesome looking game, but I am getting a blue screen immediately on running the program.
I am on Vista 64x, but haven't really had any problems with indie games like this before.

I think I might have fixed it now (i accidentally put something in this build that was causing xp64 crashes in previous releases)). Could you download it and try running it again? I understand it's a pain if it causes a bsod again, but I would appreciate it. |

Oh hey look spoilers, my thoughts and constructive criticism of the game, and such things.If my post looks small, that's because all of the text is between the abbr tags.

I cannot figure out how to get the spoilers in that post to show!

I'm sorry to ask this so late, but is it possible to make fullscreen optional? I tried fixing this myself, but couldn't seem to find the files to linking lua.
