Bug List for Atari 8-bit Taipan
-------------------------------
- The "negative interest" bug is currently missing, due to using
unsigned values for debt. Plus, it's cheating. I'm undecided
whether or not to use a bignum for debt; if I do, it will be
possible to have negative debt.
- Not really a bug, but, the interest calculation for debt is slightly
different, due to using integer math. Very small debt amounts will grow
much faster than they should, then stabilize and converge towards the
correct values over time. This only happens when you have less than
10 in debt, which (at least for me) is a pretty rare situation.
- A few things in the screen layout are slightly off compared to
the Apple version. Would really like to get it exact.
- The 'Please limit your firm name to 22 characters' prompt is missing.
The Apple version actually allows you to type all you want until you
press Enter. This port works like the Linux version: as soon as you type
the 22nd character, it acts like you pressed Enter after it. A good
compromise might be to allow up to 22 characters, then any keypress
other than backspace or enter would show the "please limit" prompt.
- Damaged ship graphics need work. I don't have enough unused font
characters to duplicate the Apple bitmapped graphics exactly, plus
each damage location must fit entirely within a character cell... but a
couple of my damaged sections are pretty hokey-looking. Also, now that
I'm using the graphical title screen, I have a few more characters I
can redefine as damaged ship sections.
