I am from Sweden and intrested in PC hardware, C/C++ Programming, languages and game design.
- And of course Dink Smallwood.

2006-10-20 I started correcting the free source code of Dink Smallwood 1.07 in order to understand the system of the game, lucky I have Visual C++6 Standard, otherwise I had been stucked.
Unfortunatly I do not have the MS VS .net 2005 that is necessary using the Dink Smallwood 1.08 source code, but I turn each coin to get there(-oh, saving, saving and saving.....).

Really cool, that RTsoft has released them, that gimme a wonderful opportunity to learn game programming the hard way, bless them.
After all, most programmers these days work on code others have made, at least according to my books on the related topics(-thought- a good way in, perhaps / perhaps not).
I really like tough challanges, it gives me much to live for.
Even if I fail I do not care, it will have been fun trying.

Editing scripts do not work, *.lua is not associated to any program.
I hope you are going to make an integrated script editor environment.
I found how I should erase a layer, pressing the (delete) key did not cause anything here.
It is not at all so difficult to learn, it is just a matter of time.
Even though, I really miss an undo with plenty memory when moving the tiles around in a mess and regrets it.
