paulo@0 1 bug 0001: Dual Marathon gimmick
paulo@0 2
paulo@0 3 The keys control both a platform game (in the top window) and a
paulo@0 4 tetromino stacking game (in the bottom window). If you die on
paulo@0 5 either window, you lose.

paulo@0 7
paulo@0 8 bug 0002: Customizable top out behavior
paulo@0 9 Parity: Tetris (NES), freepuzzlearena
paulo@0 10
paulo@0 11 A rule can dictate that "top out" occurs when the following happens:
paulo@0 12 * Overlap or lock out: Entry overlapping blocks, or lock entirely
paulo@0 13 above ceiling (current behavior)
paulo@0 14 * Partial lock out: Lock with any block above ceiling
paulo@0 15 * Garbage out: Entry with any block above ceiling
paulo@0 16 * Loose block out: Lock overlapping blocks; block can be shifted
paulo@0 17 out of the way in some cases (like Tetris for NES)

paulo@0 25 being copied to the screen.

paulo@0 27
paulo@0 28 bug 0004: Mode 7 style blitter for GBA and DS
paulo@0 29 Platform: GBA
paulo@0 30
paulo@0 31 Extend blitField(LJView *) to calculate scaling and rotation factors
paulo@0 32 for each scanline, and extend other functions to start DMA.
paulo@0 33
paulo@0 34
paulo@0 35 bug 0005: Port Lockjaw: The Overdose (TOD)
paulo@0 36 Requires: 0002, 0003, 0004
paulo@0 37 Parity: TOD
paulo@0 38
paulo@0 39 TOD used Carbon Engine. I want to migrate away from Carbon Engine.
paulo@0 40
paulo@0 41
paulo@0 42 bug 0006: Ridin' Spinners
paulo@0 43 Requires: 0003, 0004
paulo@0 44 SRS and Infinity are turned on. If you abuse lock delay, or you make
paulo@0 45 a "spin triple" twist, the screen begins to spin, and the music
paulo@0 46 changes to a cover of "Ridin' Spinners" by Three 6 Mafia.
paulo@0 47
paulo@0 48
paulo@0 49 bug 0007: Improve Items gimmick
paulo@0 50 Requires: 0008
paulo@0 51 Votes: Caithness
paulo@0 52 Parity: Tetris DS
paulo@0 53
paulo@0 54 Give only one item at a time in the early stages.
paulo@0 55
paulo@0 56
paulo@0 57 bug 0008: Prerotated next queue
paulo@0 58 Parity: Tetris DS
paulo@0 59
paulo@0 60 Store the orientation of each piece in the next queue.
paulo@0 61
paulo@0 62
paulo@0 63 bug 0009: TDS 4-player worldwide simulation
paulo@0 64 Parity: Tetris DS
paulo@0 65
paulo@0 66 3/4 of the time you start it, it will play annoying music for
paulo@0 67 two minutes, give an 86420 error, and quit. The rest of the
paulo@0 68 time, it will play annoying music for between 15 seconds and
paulo@0 69 two minutes and then switch to Items gimmick.
paulo@0 70
paulo@0 71
paulo@0 72 bug 0010: Colored blocks
paulo@0 73 Parity: freepuzzlearena
paulo@0 74
paulo@0 75 In active, hold, and next, have each block store its color.
paulo@0 76
paulo@0 77
paulo@0 78 bug 0011: H&R Blocks scoring method
paulo@0 79 Parity: freepuzzlearena
paulo@0 80
paulo@0 81 First spotted in freepuzzlearena Tetanus. Each piece is either
paulo@0 82 entirely dark or entirely light. A line of all dark or all light
paulo@0 83 scores as 2 lines. Score for n lines with one piece is n*(n+1)*50.
paulo@0 84
paulo@0 85
paulo@0 86 bug 0012: Two physical keys per vkey
paulo@0 87 Platform: PC
paulo@0 88
paulo@0 89 Allow the player to set more than one key that operates a given,
paulo@0 90 game function, like StepMania does.
paulo@0 91
paulo@0 92
paulo@0 93 bug 0013: Two-player mode
paulo@0 94 Parity: freepuzzlearena
paulo@0 95
paulo@0 96 Allow two players to play at once, and allow garbage to be sent back
paulo@0 97 and forth.
paulo@0 98
paulo@0 99
paulo@0 100 bug 0014: Store and display assertion text
paulo@0 101
paulo@0 102 Lockjaw Engine has ljassert(). If an assertion fails, have some way
paulo@0 103 for front-ends to retrieve the text.
paulo@0 104
paulo@0 105
paulo@0 106 bug 0015: Rotation system should be array of structs
paulo@0 107
paulo@0 108 A single struct should describe all aspects of a rotation system.
paulo@0 109 The descriptions in wktables.c should be an array of structs, not
paulo@0 110 struct of arrays. While you're at it, extend the kick tables
paulo@0 111 from 5 to 8 positions.
paulo@0 112
paulo@0 113
paulo@0 114 bug 0016: Rotation system editor
paulo@0 115 Platform: PC
paulo@0 116 Requires: 0015
paulo@0 117 Votes: Needle, DIGITAL, (RA) Red Star, jujube, fnord
paulo@0 118
paulo@0 119 Before developing Lockjaw Engine, I described Wall Kick Explorer, an
paulo@0 120 editor for rotation systems. Make this.
paulo@0 121 * initial shift and orientation of each piece
paulo@0 122 * kick tables for +90deg and +270deg
paulo@0 123
paulo@0 124 <tepples>
paulo@0 125 0.44 inverts rotation systems into a format that a loader might be
paulo@0 126 able to produce.
paulo@0 127
paulo@0 128
paulo@0 129 bug 0017: Adjustable window size
paulo@0 130 Votes: Bloodstar
paulo@0 131 Resolution: Fixed in 0.42
paulo@0 132
paulo@0 133 The skin should control the screen resolution or the size of the
paulo@0 134 window. This would make camstudio recording on older PCs feasible.
paulo@0 135
paulo@0 136
paulo@0 137 bug 0018: Store keypress count in .ljm
paulo@0 138
paulo@0 139 Replays should store the number of keypresses, so that Baboo! result
paulo@0 140 screens are correct.
paulo@0 141
paulo@0 142
paulo@0 143 bug 0019: Start recording .ljm only during ARE
paulo@0 144
paulo@0 145 It would probably simplify the code to start a replay only during
paulo@0 146 entry delay. This would also allow playback to become slightly
paulo@0 147 more resilient to game engine changes, as the viewer would at least
paulo@0 148 be able to view block placements.
paulo@0 149
paulo@0 150
paulo@0 151 bug 0020: Option for fractional row kick
paulo@0 152 Parity: Tetris DX
paulo@0 153
paulo@0 154 Right now, a floor kick will move a piece by the minimal amount
paulo@0 155 needed to place a block in the correct row. This means downward
paulo@0 156 kicks move to the top of the row, and upward kicks move to the bottom
paulo@0 157 and immediately start lock delay. Other games don't do this.
paulo@0 158 To simulate Tetris DX properly, we need a new option:
paulo@0 159
paulo@0 160 Fractional floor kick
paulo@0 161 Unchanged
paulo@0 162 > Minimal move (current behavior)
paulo@0 163 Move to top (Tetris DX behavior)
paulo@0 164
paulo@0 165
paulo@0 166 bug 0021: Double buffer entire screen
paulo@0 167 Platform: PC
paulo@0 168 Votes: 4matsy
paulo@0 169
paulo@0 170 On some video cards, the score flashes. Double buffering the entire
paulo@0 171 screen, not just the well, would fix this.
paulo@0 172
paulo@0 173
paulo@0 174 bug 0022: Automatic exit on Vista
paulo@0 175 Platform: PC
paulo@0 176 Resolution: Fixed in 0.42
paulo@0 177
paulo@0 178 One machine running Windows Vista had Esc perform an immediate exit
paulo@0 179 rather than a pause > exit.
paulo@0 180
paulo@0 181 <tepples>
paulo@0 182 Might it have been caused by vsync() returning immediately?
paulo@0 183 If so, 0.42 fixes that.
paulo@0 184
paulo@0 185
paulo@0 186 bug 0023: Draw internal preview without clipping to well edge
paulo@0 187 Requires: 0020
paulo@0 188 Votes: 4matsy
paulo@0 189
paulo@0 190 Internal preview should extend outside the well if the piece is close
paulo@0 191 enough to the wall.
paulo@0 192
paulo@0 193
paulo@0 194 bug 0024: Improve garbage options
paulo@0 195 Votes: Bloodstar, Lardarse
paulo@0 196 Parity: Tetris (NES)
paulo@0 197
paulo@0 198 Add option for garbage density, especially for B-type
paulo@0 199
paulo@0 200 Garbage density
paulo@0 201 Half
paulo@0 202 Two holes
paulo@0 203 > One hole
paulo@0 204
paulo@0 205 Add option for garbage randomness (1-100)
paulo@0 206
paulo@0 207
paulo@0 208 bug 0025: Internet play
paulo@0 209 Requires: 0013

paulo@0 225 Votes: Bloodstar
paulo@0 226 Parity: Tetris (NES) in emulation
paulo@0 227
paulo@0 228 FCE Ultra and Nestopia can convert a replay to an AVI.
paulo@0 229 Lockjaw should too.

paulo@0 232 bug 0028: Game_Music_Emu music support

paulo@0 238 convert it to .ogg first.

paulo@0 240
paulo@0 241 bug 0029: Height-sensitive music
paulo@0 242 Platform: PC
paulo@0 243 Votes: Bloodstar
paulo@0 244 Parity: Tetris (NES), Tetris (GB)
paulo@0 245
paulo@0 246 Tetris DX changes the music when the stack surpasses a certain
paulo@0 247 height. Lockjaw should too.
paulo@0 248
paulo@0 249
paulo@0 250 bug 0030: Music on GBA
paulo@0 251 Platform: GBA
paulo@0 252 Votes: Bloodstar
paulo@0 253 Parity: TOD
paulo@0 254

paulo@0 263 PC has a result screen. I want this on GBA and DS
paulo@0 264
paulo@0 265 <tepples>
paulo@0 266 Fixed in 0.42 for DS. To get this onto the GBA, we'd have to
paulo@0 267 eliminate three lines of text from the result screen.
paulo@0 268
paulo@0 269 <tepples>
paulo@0 270 kesiev gave me a few ideas of how I could slim it down. Fixing.
paulo@0 271
paulo@0 272
paulo@0 273 bug 0032: Baboo! should force infinite lock delay
paulo@0 274 Votes: caffeine
paulo@0 275
paulo@0 276 right now, Baboo! is defined by use of 0g. it should be
paulo@0 277 infinite lock delay instead.
paulo@0 278
paulo@0 279 <tepples>
paulo@0 280 Why? It would add an extra keystroke to Zangi-moves.
paulo@0 281
paulo@0 282
paulo@0 283 bug 0033: Move all skin-related files to a folder
paulo@0 284 Platform: PC
paulo@0 285 Votes: caffeine
paulo@0 286 Resolution: Fixed in 0.43
paulo@0 287

paulo@0 291 bug 0034: Configure console buttons
paulo@0 292 Platform: PC
paulo@0 293 Votes: caffeine, 4matsy
paulo@0 294 Parity: StepMania
paulo@0 295
paulo@0 296 Escape to pause, [ to record, ] to play should be configurable.
paulo@0 297
paulo@0 298 <tepples>
paulo@0 299 4matsy said that MenuUp, MenuDown, MenuLeft, MenuRight,
paulo@0 300 MenuStart, and MenuBack also being configurable might help.
paulo@0 301
paulo@0 302
paulo@0 303 bug 0035: skip ready go and game over animations
paulo@0 304 Votes: caffeine
paulo@0 305
paulo@0 306 I like to kill and restart games when I make one little mistake,
paulo@0 307 and startingAnimation and gameOverAnimation slow me down.
paulo@0 308 I want to skip them, even though each is less than 2 seconds.

paulo@0 311 bug 0036: Skip to mistakes
paulo@0 312 Platform: PC
paulo@0 313 Votes: caffeine
paulo@0 314
paulo@0 315 While watching a replay, I want to skip to a piece that increases
paulo@0 316 the number of holes or whose active time is greater than three
paulo@0 317 times the average.
paulo@0 318
paulo@0 319
paulo@0 320 bug 0037: Hide active times in results
paulo@0 321 Votes: caffeine
paulo@0 322
paulo@0 323 The Quadra-style "active time" statistics confuse me. I want to
paulo@0 324 see stats based on wall time only.

paulo@0 326
paulo@0 327 bug 0038: Result time unit
paulo@0 328 Votes: caffeine
paulo@0 329
paulo@0 330 I'd like to control whether statistics are expressed per minute
paulo@0 331 or per second.
paulo@0 332
paulo@0 333 <tepples>
paulo@0 334 Why? DDR is measured in beats per minute, and gasoline engine speed
paulo@0 335 is measured in revolutions per minute.
