Version 0.11.7
==============
2006-08-15
- Added: BomberClone Icon to the bomberclone win32 binary.
- Added: resolution 1280x800
- Testing: Security Problems found by Luigi Auriemma
Bugs: A] memcpy crash in rscache_add
B] information disclosure in send_pkg
C] simple error message termination
for more informations look here:
http://aluigi.altervista.org/adv/bcloneboom-adv.txt
Solutions to
A) rewrote the whole resend cache system, also send_mapinfo needed a
bad workaround for a bug i couldn't find out. (to disable the workaround
use ./configure CFLAGS=-DBUG_MAPINFO)
B) made sure that the size of a packet is set right before send over
the network. Found only the function (do_gameinfo) where something
like this occured.
do_pkg will also check the size of the incoming packet with the
p->h.len value.
C) accept the error packets only from the server of a game. Since only the
server will send such type of packets.

- Added: "more random" by Patrik Nilsson:
This map type is just a hacked version of "autogenerated",
and is as the name tells more random. Since both block,
rock and nothing are placed randomly inside the border.
- Fixed: High CPU usage in menus.
This fix was made by Chris E..
- Fixed: Bug with more as 8 different player graphics.
The window size hasen't changed if there where more as
8 different player graphics to choose from.
- Removed the Dedicated Server Support from the game.
The whole bomberclone game is not designed for a dedicated
server. The test shown that the whole game would have to
be rewritten. Also that the host can leave the game would
not work no more.
Version 0.11.6.2
- Client network player could die two times in a game.
After receiving the playerdata packet from a client did the
server first the player_set_gfx routine first. Which send a
playerid packet with a alife player back.
Changed: player_set_gfx routine will be called after setting
the state of a player.
Also do_playerid will check if the game is not running
or the player is still alife to set this value.
- Dedicated server support (only testing).
- Fixed do_quit and send_quit.
- Fixed number of players in running games was always
set to 0.
Version 0.11.6.1
- Display the number of players for each listed network game.
- Ghost Player added.
- Playername will not overlapped by the player gfx anymore.
- Added menuswitch to enable/disable broadcast requests.
aalib-x11 and aview-x11.
SDL dependencies change, so bump PKGREVISION (and BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED)
for affected packages.

installing .la files.

via a buildlink3 include.
The ChangeLog has this to say about it:
- in-game menus, like the "Quit Game" question, and an End Round menu.

more menus at a time. it is possible to write own menuloops.
(this is used in the new playerselection screen and playermenu screen.)

- password protection for own games so they can be listed on the OGC but
only people with the password will be able to join.
