I have finished. Though the message is still the same, regardless. Fixing that would have been a nicer touch.
That's harder to fix - replacing the exit is easy as you've got a good idea of what was meant to happen. Whereas changing the ending message means that I've got to second guess the author ...

Re: ziggarat of dread
Now there are 2 force screens (bottom of stairs) which I have got rid of 'point bone wand) and the 2nd force screen (in airy chamber) - which I can't get rid of - pointing the wand does not work here....
You need something to get passed this force screen which you need to SHOW to the screen.
I ...

I've just finished it, though the ending is rather... erm... disappointing:

That's part of the challenge. The .SNA is at http://www.davidlodge.me.uk/ziggurat%20fixed.SNA. It'll be there for a while (basically until I need to put other stuff there and need my space back - so about a year or so).
I have a half formed GUEmap map if that'll help.

Just to resurrect an old thread at a request from Doreen, I've had a look at this and found the problem in the BASIC listing, this line: 9210 DATA 30,326,30,0,0,0
Should read 9210 DATA 30,26,30,0,0,0
I've got an .SNA file where I've fixed it, unfortunately I couldn't just poke memory values which ...

Ignore the stuff I said about the axe and diamond, I misunderstood that bit of the source. You need to use the sword to kill the dwarf.
You can send me the .sna or .ezx file (not .tzx as I said above - I'm only human and make mistakes). I'd prefer it if you sent me just before you enter the maze so ...

Okay, I finally managed to kill the dwarf with the sword. It's convoluted, but we have to work around a flaw in the Spectrum and the tzx format.
The spectrum generates pseudo-random numbers using an algorithm. Normally the algorithm starts based on the time the system has been up, but because we're ...

Re: gateway to the skies
Have you tried rubbing the lamp to take yourself back to the farm?Doreen B wrote:As far as I can see there is no way you can get the pickaxe out of the mine - you fall and stab yourself on it.
Can you deal with the Dwarf before you go into the diamond mine?
