This file contains changes I made from the original Solitiaire/Patience game retrieved from http://qpe.sourceforge.net CVS code.
Changes for 2.01 (Weds. - July 3, 2002)- Added New game called Forty Thieves.
- Added statistics display.
- Added configuration file management. Trying to reduce file clutter and seems to reduce crashes.
- Remember all options between starting of application. Including cardback patterns, number of cards to draw, and number of times through the deck.
- Redid menus to remove toggling of strings instead, put seperate entries and add check marks so it is clearer what options there are.
- Made winning fun. Added random interesting sayings when you win a game :)
- Added option for patience to allow unlimited times through the deck
Changes for 1.17 (Wed. - June 26, 2002)- Fixed bug allowing game to recognize a win.
- Fixed bug during win so cards stay on table helter skelter..
- Made spider remember at least how many suits were last used. This is for restarting after exiting. Still a bug in complete restore for spider so it is disabled.
Changes for 1.16 (Mon. - June 24, 2002)
- Fixed bug in Spider to let player remove pile of cards to discard piles.
Changes for 1.15 (Sun. - June 23, 2002)- Added Scroll bars to the games. Auto On if cards pile get to long.
- Fixed bug with Spider so it will not let you deal cards if there is a blank space on the tableau (as per the rules :).
- Fixed bug with Patience so it will remember Whether you chose 1 or 3 card a time dealing when startinga new game.
- Added patience and spider specific menus. Context activated.
- Patience now allows option of 1 or 3 times through the deck. Also remembers between games.
- Patience remembers number of times through deck and number of cards to draw if you leave the game duringa Patience game. This way user can pick up where they left off.
- Added spider menu with choice of number of suits (1, 2 or 4) like Micro$ofts version. [easy, medium, impossible]
- Removed Help Menu. Moved 'About' to the Games menu.
Changes for 1.1 Sat. - June 15, 2002
- Removed Jokers code from card deck
- Added ability to have multiple decks for a game to card deck (up to four decks).
- Made settings menu dynamic for 'Snap on/off' and 'Draw 1/3 card(s)'
- Made settings menu show all the possible card backs.
- Added help menu with About item.
- Added access function to allow for checking if stack goes from king to ace that spider needs.
- Added the Game Spider (disabled reading in of config file for spider due to infinite loop problem -- can't find bug).
- Added own main Icon.
- Updated the docs. Wrote HTML pages with rules for all games. The rules came from _Hoyle's_Rules_Of_Games_ (Third Revised Edition).
Still TODO
1. Add other games.
2. Allow Spider and Forty thieves to restore from config file like other two games.
3. Allowed cards to know which pile they come from so can check for legal moves better.
