Latest project: trying to get the old Koblas/Lee SOCKS4 library to work on Caldera 1.1. I got the library and client apps to build (after much tinkering), but it doesn't even try to connect to my proxy; it just immediately returns "connection refused". :NotSureIf:

A bit of an update to the Neo Geo port of Jurl. Just some tidying up. I still haven't worked out how to make sound work.

Thought I’d have a play and see what a #SpectrumNext version of Manic Miner might look like. Just a few rough pixels so I’ve got something to work with while I start a little coding exercise. Something to get me back into #z80 #retrodev #RetroGaming

I've uploaded the Neo Geo port of Jurl, there are quite a few issues to resolve but it is playable - at least in GNGEO, i've had slightly less success in Mame. As always it's pay what you want and free is a valid option https://tonsomo.itch.io/jurl-neo-geo-edition #indiedev #retrodev #retrogaming

#plptools update!

Ports

The #HaikuOS port works with on-board serial ports. However, USB RS232 adapters do not work. This is because of an issue with the usb_serial driver in Haiku. DTR and RTS can't be set reliably, and RTS and CTS can't be detected.

There is still one small issue with the Haiku port. A GNU regex test in ./configure is segfaulting. This can be bypassed, but we want it fixed. That involves delving into autotools, so we'll see how I get on!

Both the #FreeBSD and #NetBSD ports are working! With a combination of brute force and the help of a few FediFolk, these now compile. (I did think that the NetBSD port was severely broken, but I was just using the wrong serial device. Sigh.)

MacOS is still stable and happy.

We're not planning on adding any more ports unless people really beg!

Bugs

Just a handful of small fixes, like plpftp not segfaulting any more when you press CTRL-C. I might have introduced a new bug into plpftp regarding Daylight Savings... I'll try to fix that soon. In my defence, Psion's implementation of DST is, to put it politely, rudimentary.

@wyatt It sounds like the love child of Game Boy joypad interrupts and Master System pause button. And given that the Sega Phil Collins and Mega Drive has a 68K and is backward-compatible with the Master System...

#TheGate for #Amiga
--
Let's call it a day :)

- Enemy bullets now uses the same blit settings as their parents.
- Added area limit checks in all the movement commands.
- Fixed a bad behaviour with sound fx & enemy contact.
- Fixed a bug in enemy bullets disappearing: too long to describe it in these little space :)
- Added a new property to the enemy definition: bulletSpeed that is used to set the speed of its own bullets.
:commodore: :amiga:
