[comp.sys.mac.games] Diamonds bugs :

ted@cs.utexas.edu (Ted Woodward) (03/12/91)

A friend lent me his ci when he went off for Spring Break, so I've been
playing color games :-).  I like diamonds, but it has a few bugs. I've
had it crash on me a few times, both out of memory.  One was when I went
to a new level (the highest I've been, like #6 or #7), and the other time
was right after the dialog to enter my name.

The catch is that it writes directly to the screen, and hides the menu
bar, so when it quits, it leaves you with a bunch of crap on the screen
and no menu bar!

FYI, this is being run on a ci w/system 6.07, MF 6.1b9.  The game has the
default 1800(!)K for it's multifinder partition.

Oh, it's also frozen on me two or three times, munging the debugger
in the process.  The interrupt switch does nothing but stop the music
while it is down (and then the music starts playing again...), forcing me
to hit the reset switch.

Anybody else have problems like this?
