Summary0006361: Defender ACID release !!! - Hard crash when Mouse Button is pressed + 2nd button plz
DescriptionHi, Sorry for using this Defender Entry,
but there is none for the ACID version.

You know, this one.
https://amiga.abime.net/games/view/defender-acid

1# The game crashes back to the Workbench in WinUE when a Mouse button is pressed and hangs on a Black screen with MIST FPGA Minimig.
(ony the 3 finger reset helps) - that does not happend in the Floppy OG version.

2# A 2nd Button function would be really nice for triggering the Bomb. (enter)
Is there no warp feature in this version unlike the Arcade or the Ratsoft release? I think i tried every key on the Keyboard... hmmm

3# This game seems very Timing sensitive. The SoundFX are pretty messed up without using NOCACHE. But even NOCACHE dont fix them completely.
EXPCHIP has to be used in order to do that.

Thank you very much for reading this and for making a fix. Maybe... ;)

Greez,
Torti
Steps To ReproduceWell, just play the game and hit the mousebutton :)

and try to trigger a Bomb in a tight situation .... ;)

 There are two versions of this game it seems. One version is on Amiga Format (and is supported by the current install), and another version was released on two different issues of Amiga Power (but is identical on both issues). I will add support for the Amiga Power version too.

Issue 1 seems to happen on both versions however - clicking mouse in game exits to desktop. I don't know why you are getting full crash on MIST FPGA - that implies the game is still doing something it shouldn't. In any case, I will disable mouse exiting to desktop because that is just bad. :-)

Issue 2 - two button support should be reasonable enough to add.

I will investigate issue 3 to see if I can see anything going on with sound.

Also the install currently allocates 1MB and needs Kick 3.1 - both seem unnecessary (I have been able to use 512k and Kick 1.3 in my investigation).
