If you are running an old + robot under GNU Robots 1.0, you may notice that your robot won't + last as long. I think the new energy "costs" will challenge + people to write more efficient robot programs. + + Removed scm_random and scm_randomize, since the random function + is now provided in GNU Guile 1.3. If you are trying to run GNU + Robots under GNU Guile 1.2 or previous, you will need to patch + it yourself using the src/random.c source file. + + Ran all the .c files through GNU Indent. Sorry about not having + done that before, everyone. + + Added more comments to the sample robot programs. + + Tim Northover contributed a GNU Robots map editor. I have put + this in the `contrib' directory. + +_____________________________________________________________________ + +0.95 - Applied several patches from Steinar Hamre + <steinarh@stud.fim.ntnu.no> that fix how `configure' locates + GNU Guile. No feature enhancements. + +0.91 - Fixed a few annoying bugs. No feature enhancements. + +0.9 - Used GNU Autoconf to configure the source for various platforms. + Made robot variables into `long', improved command line using + `getopt', and added Scheme functions to check robot status. + Also, included some sample robots that were submitted. + +0.8 - Added GNU Getopt to scan command line. Added contributions for + X Windows interface, and added cooler XPMs. Changed build + target names, to be more descriptive. Added html + documentation. + +0.77 - Added 'random' and 'randomize' functions. Redefined 'exit' and + 'quit' to exit nicely. Some tweaking to initial energy. + +0.76 - Added code to stop the game when the robot runs out of energy + or shields fall to zero. Reduced globals to only main.c and + api.c. Now builds both the curses and log-file game for 'make + all'. + +0.72 - Fixed a bug during movement. Added a new sample robot. First + release when the game engine actually seems to work. Does not + stop the game when the robot is dead, though. |
