That was dumb.

Fixed now.

No problem, absent-minded professor

I get a blank where it says where 3.3.1 is available from . . . http://rephial.org/release?

[ewan]

That only offers 3.1.1; the download page only offers 3.3.0. Direction would be welcome .

Just http://rephial.org. 3.3.1 is on the front page.

[Nick]

OK, and the link is on the competition page now. Seriously, how can one short announcement have so many errors in it?

Effort and/or natural talent.

For some reason this version requires two keypresses for me to move one square. I'm using a win xp machine. Has anyone else ever seen this?

I've this too. But when i press [up] [left] i move diagonal. So my theory about this is that the game checks if you have a Numpad or not (I lack one) and this way I can use my arrow-key as numpad. But it does slow down the game.

[Roch]

Yes, I get the same diagonal move if I press up and then left. It's pretty close to unplayable this way, so no laptop games for me.

I had the same problem. (On Win 7 and Ubuntu 11.04).

What worked for me on both systems, was setting the movement delay to 0. (was set to 2).

[Nick]

OK, my bad again. I don't know why the savefile I started with had a positive movement delay; for normal play, set that to 0.

I'm in the competition now. I've reached clevel 11.
