Request: action to mark invalid fields in Tents

I’d like to request an action for the Tents game, that would mark every square that are not next to a tree as empty, cause it’s trivial that no tents can go there, but on larger sizes it an be a chore to manually mark them all up. Fields that have a tree next to them (orthogonally) would not be marked even in rows or columns with 0 tents of course, only fields that can not orthogonally next to a tree.

Feature request: toggle left and right click

I love this open source game package, thanks for maintaining it!

The Android version of Tatham’s Puzzle Games has a little control panel inside each game that enables toggling the functions of short and long click during game play. Could you implement that in the iOS version? For games that call for lots of long clicks, this feature makes them much more playable.

Singles game bug on iphone

I cannot make a circle in the leftmost column in the singles game (12 tricky). This worked on Android phone but not iPhone.

Uses ringer volume for media

My system: iOS 15.2.1

App version: 1.3.2.1
Original Revision: f1e68fb
Downloaded from Apple app store a few days ago

This bug report is about the right click sound played by the long tap action which simulates right click. To reproduce, open a new game of Mines, and perform a long tap on any square of the board. (Or pretty much at any time in any game, that's just one example.)

My phone has two volume controls: media and ringer. Media volume is in the control center which is accessed by swiping down from the top right. Ringer volume is in settings -> sound and haptics -> Ringer and alerts. Typically, ringer volume determines the playback volume of ringer and alerts while media volume controls the volume of video playback, music, and games.

The expected behavior is for games to use the media volume to for the long tap sound. The actual behavior is that this app uses the ringer volume. This means that in order to hear the long tap sound clearly (it is a very faint sound and very important for gameplay) I need to turn my ringer volume all the way up, and then my phone rings loudly if I get a call.

Glad to provide more details if needed, thanks for maintaining this package :)

several pushes of unsolve needed

Cheers,

When pushing key kombo Strg+S several times you need to push also several times to undo. I think once should be enough because you cant solve it more than once and after that one undo should be enough.

Thanks,

Request for new games: Mosaic and Palisade

Could you please merge in the newest games Mosaic and Palisade from upstream?

Working on a rewrite: new maintainers?

I’ve been internally working on a rewrite of this puzzles app over to Swift as a learning + passion project for myself. My aim is to add a few features that id like to have in the app, and eventually my goal would be to release them to everyone.

The code I’ve written so far is forked from this repo (on my self-hosted git repo at the moment), and ideally the easiest path forward would be to get the changes merged in here and released to the existing App Store listing.

It looks like this app hasn’t been touched in a while, so I’d like to see if there’s a possibility of adding maintainers or transferring ownership over so work can continue and updates can be released to everyone who already has the app.

Appreciate it!

File missing in Xcode 4.6.1

Tried to run the Puzzles.xcodeproj in Xcode 4.6.1 but it failed - missing file 'list.c'. Is the file required or is it indicating it doesn't work in this version of Xcode?

Game ids inaccessible

The game ids and random seeds cannot be edited or copied. This problem has been going on for at least a few months, but I’m not sure when it started exactly. I’ve had it on both an iPhone SE (the old SE) and an iPad, on various subversions of iOS 14.
