[Not Tetris 2] game stuck after multiplayer with scale >= 7

[oxygen]

Hello there :) thank you for your well done games.

The game works completely fine, except for 2-player mode with scale set to 7, 8, or fullscreen on. Setting the scale to anything < 7 fixes the problem.

• Symptoms: After both players have reached the top and failed, the end animation is displayed and when all bricks left the screen nothing happens or responds.
• System:
  OS: Win XP SP3
  Graphics: ATI Radeon X1950 Pro (1920x1200 @ 60Hz)
  Driver Version: 09.3 (Release Version: 8.591-090225a-076825C-ATI)

I like your dedication to the game and all, but...


I'm pretty sure they stopped working (if they were even trying) on this game, so if this is a tech issue, they most likely wont fix it.

Also: I tested it; it works fine for me.

DEAR EVERYONE: THIS IS A PRIME EXAMPLE OF A GREAT BUG REPORT. PLEASE LEARN FROM THIS MAN.

Yeah, that's a known bug, though it might take a while before the fix is out. Pretty much everything that's not Mari0 is currently on hold until Mari0 is... stable. Can't really say what that means or that would be.

Haha, now I feel very honored :D

No worries, it's only a minor bug. The only real prolbem with Not Tetris 2, is that this game can be highly addictive! (nearly missed an exam at university :P)

Since you are currently busy, I fixed it up for you:

[gameBmulti.lua] line: 417 + 423

Code: Select all

if v:getY() < 162*mpscale then

Comparing an unscaled value with a scaled constant, caused the irregular behaviour.
If we take the default scale, we get a threshold of 162*5 = 810, which looks like a good value considering the worldsize of 1050.

If you simply replace those two lines with:

Code: Select all

if v:getY() < 810 then

2-player-mode will work with every scale.

ps: Keep up the good work with Mari0 ;)

Actually physics scale is 2 iirc. Looks like I forgot to change that part when I seperated the physics from the scale.

[oxygen]

actually it's mpscale/4 ;) but now it makes sense. yeah, so either add *physicsmpscale to v:getY(), or fix the value to 648.
