When we compiled the asteroids program here we found a few strange behaviors. We have both color and b&w sun2's and color sun3's running under 4.2BSD Unix. the program seems to run perfectly fine on the b&w machines. It doesn't even have the random death problem that is in the README file. On a color machine if you rotate any significant amount you disintegrate and when you fire the shots travel a VERY short distance (< 1/2 inch: this makes it VERY HARD to hit anything). Has anybody else seen this problem and if so are there any fixes available. If not I will attempt to muck around in the code myself (needs more comments) and post the fixes when I have them. ============================================================= Mark Holm ..tektronix!ogcvax!cvedc!mholm Computervision ..sun!cvbnet!cvedc!mholm 14952 NW Greenbrier Parkway Phone (503)645-2410 Beaverton, Oregon 97006 FAX (503)645-4734
