Changes since the last version:

+ PoP1 for DOS autorun and quicker painful falls (F4).
* Another option for disabling arrow down, which leaves sheathing intact.

Facebook? Seems stable and nice features according to me.

All right.
Notable might be the new functionality to disable gameplay keys and autorun, both accessible via the F4 key.
Since apoplexy was last mentioned on Facebook, I mean.

Posted on FB.

A bit (actually a lot!) late, sorry for that. Was sick (yes, covid positive) and busy as always. Feeling fine now although a bit weak.

Thanks.

Good that you're feeling better.

I see another small change: On the game select screen, as I move the cursor over the buttons, the names of the games appear above each prince.

True. It should make that selection screen more user-friendly for new users.

Yes, that's a great change!
By the way which font it is?

And of course the other changes like not allowing certain key pressed are also great for creating levels with less number of rooms and requiring good thinking. Would it be possible for SDLPoP to read these bytes and disallow certain key presses?

I'll look into the source code too

Edit: Ah, it was easy. You need to make change in the read_keyb_control() function. Need to somehow read the bytes and don't set the control variables, even though the keys are pressed. But I haven't yet figured out how to set the auto-runner. Always keep that control variable value? Need to try.

Edit 2: Yes it works!
