All files have been upgraded. Design improvements, additional animations, animated tiles, upgraded interface, game board, pieces etc etc etc... Of special significance is the simplified localizer scheme Tux uses to make his move. It is now easy for Tux to perform multiple-replacement. I've kept it to only two "wildcard" ("wc" in the code) tiles at a time in the interest of not generating too many options and taking too long to move. He seems to do just fine with two wc's. </ul> | TuxMathScrabble 2.0 | updated | TuxMathScrabble |
