<b>Crosswords 4.4 beta 16 release</b>
|
<b>Crosswords 4.4 beta 17 release</b>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<p>This is a <em>another</em> quick bug-fix release while I continue
|
<p>This release changes how networked games are created, configured
|
||||||
work on the new relay connection code -- which is coming along,
|
and connect with each other. It tries to make the process simpler and
|
||||||
BTW. Please email if you're willing to comment on an early version.</p>
|
should mean it's much more likely to succeed. I've also scattered
|
||||||
|
"new user hints" around the app, dialogs with tips that you can
|
||||||
|
dismiss with a "Do not show again" button when you don't need to see
|
||||||
|
that hint again.</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<ul>Bugs fixed:
|
<p>I'm breaking from tradition and not listing bugs fixed or features
|
||||||
<li>Dictionary download could be routed to Browser if you weren't careful or
|
added here -- because there have been well over 300 separate changes
|
||||||
your phone maker hard-coded the type. Now it always routes to Crosswords.

committed since the last beta. Instead I'll outline how you get

started with a two-player networked game.</p>

<ul>(Still) coming soon

<p>Assume you and a friend each have Crosswords on an Android phone.

<li>builtin hints and help, starting with the Game Settings

You both need to

<ul>
|

<li>Launch Crosswords and tap the "Add networked game" button on
|

your device</li>

host/guest stuff or requirement that both be online at the same
|
from the menu</li>
|
||||||
time) and allow closed game to receive moves.</li>
|
|
||||||
|
<li>Agree on a "room name" -- let's say it's "andy" --and enter it
|
||||||

in the "New room name" text box.</li>

<li>Scroll to the bottom of the window and tap the "Play game" button</li>

|
<li>Wait as your phones connect. You'll see a status message and
|
||||||
|
maybe a "new user hint", then the status icon in the upper-right
|
||||||
|
will go all-green and boards on both phones will get tiles</li>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<li>Now the first player makes a move, commits it, and it shows up
|
||||||
|
on the other device. Rinse, lather, repeat.</li>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<li>The "relay" server stores moves it receives until it can deliver
|
||||||
|
them. If you have a bunch of networked games going, choose the
|
||||||
|
"Check server" menu on the main list-of-games screen. It will
|
||||||
|
redraw all games for which there are waiting messages. You can then
|
||||||
|
open them and they will sync up.</li>
