Does this mean yer ready and I can release the news article then?
Don't think so. These still have to be added into zoo.prg :)
I looked at your text until "#nothingleft". Please play the game and update it or at least the "Fixed (errors / major)" part.
#texts
26h,"DE TEKSTEN ZIJN DOOR DE ZON VERBLEEKT."
26h,"THE TEXTS HAS BEEN FADED BY THE SUN. " ("T"=D4h) <- Do not change the 26h!
"THE TEXTS HAVE BEEN FADED BY THE SUN. "
There is no mistake here. "HAVE" is already in use.

2 fixes (HIS LEFT HIND LEG) + bug: scrolling past line #5 in game:
OK but you suggest what to reduce the text?

Line #5 is scrolled past.
Aldeady fixed! (See about "Structure" above.)

Etc...
@gdx Eh.. Yes, it's the same document you've seen before. I've put my current/new findings (7 items) under the '2017-03-11' heading, and I've put the heading 'Prev stuff' above the previous/older stuff (which I've seen mostly has been fixed, things that are still faulty are among the 7 new items..)
- edit: removed the obsolete stuff, so no room for confusion anymore
OK.
#zebrakick
"THE ZEBRA BLAMES YOU FOR "

"GRASS DESSERT AND GIVES YOU A "
"STURDY KICK WITH HIS LEFT
"HIND LEG. BY ACCIDENT HE HITS "
"YOUR HEAD. WE THEREFORE PLEAD "
"MANSLAUGHTER... "
Issues:
* line 5 (still) gets scrolled past;
When the player dies, the text must not exceed 6 lines of 30 characters, and the last of each line must be a space. For example, in the text above, "MANSLAUGHTER ..." is too much. Can you reduce these texts when necessary?
Some options:
#1 Fixed and closest to Dutch original:
1 The zebra takes offense for " 2 being interrupted during his " 3 grass dessert and lashes out. " 4 By accident he hits your " 5 head. We therefore plead " 6 manslaughter... "
#2 Freesoft version:
The zebra doesn't like to be " disturbed while eating, so he " tries to kick you in the ass. " It's a shame he hits your " head instead... "
#3 Freesoft extended:
The zebra doesn't like to be " disturbed while eating, so he " tries to kick you in the ass. " By accident he hits your head " instead. We therefore plead " manslaughter... "
I now realize the issue is in the Dutch original as well (at least, the version that's in TOSEC (HRB cracked))! It even skips two lines (5, 6):
1 De zebra neemt het u hoogst " 2 kwalijk dat hij tijdens zijn " 3 gras-dessert gestoord wordt " 4 en geeft een ferme trap met " 5 links-achter. Per ongeluk " 6 raakt hij uw hoofd. We " 7 pleiten dan ook voor " 8 doodslag... "
Any votes? I guess we're trying to keep it as close to the Dutch text as possible, so #1?
(Btw: the Freesoft text makes me wonder (again) if it's truly an/the official translation? )
#1 and #3 look good.
Please check all other texts displayed when the player dies.

I know. Only the new French version does not have this problem.
What do you think about that?
#4:
"THE ZEBRA IS INTERRUPTED " "DURING HIS GRASS DESSERT AND " "WITH RAGE GIVES YOU A STURDY " "HOOF STROKES. BY ACCIDENT HE " "HITS YOUR HEAD. WE THEREFORE " "PLEAD MANSLAUGHTER... "
You leap aside to doge the torso
Cool, it is the live Foxhound
