Hi,
It's been a while since I've posted anything new here about my current sudoku site:
http://www.playr.co.uk/sudoku/
The main new things are free PDF books to download and print, and Save and Load. You can now save the puzzle as you're working on it, and reload it later on, with all your guesses, pencilmarks and clues. It's really rather handy, but you have to have an account on the system to use it (also free).
On top of that, things that have been added since I last mentioned it:
Code: |
* Flash solver updated to 1.14
* Compact flash solver updated to 1.14
* All version of solvers now support save and load
* Save and load buttons added to website
* Puzzle library added to home page for registered users
* We have nearly 50 registered accounts on the system now!
* Added google adwords to the front page of the site, might make it pay for itself
* Made official changeover to playr.co.uk/sudoku site now
* Changed behaviour of delete key, to not move to next cell, same as with adding numbers in. Easier to navigate this way
* Don't really know where to begin! So many changes...
* Entire site facelifted, seems more web 2.0, more spaced out, cleaner, less faff. Nice. Green.
* Started work on The Speedoku League, time-based challenge solving. Solve faster, earn more points, move up the leader board. Play often to win!
* Large changes to the way puzzles are printed out, slightly smaller but can easily fit four on a page.
* Printed puzzles now in stark black and white, for clearer printing.
* Added PDF option, to give any puzzle as a downloadable PDF.
* Added email function, to send daily puzzles by email to people.
* Corrected a small grammatical error in X-Wing, thanks to Jay Murphy
* New solving methods added, just links to the pages for the moment.
* Working in multiple page PDF books of the puzzles that have been done in a month
* PDF output matches email output, matches print output. Nice.
* HTML solver now highlights the current cell, easier to use.
* Builtin help function, now has a nice popup window for various help items.
* Tweaked the DB a bit more to remove some very slow queries, and as a result the entire server runs much quicker :)
* Added PDF book creation
* PDF books now cached, so they shouldn't need to be rebuilt each time
* Syndication screens now fit in more and look nice
* Newer and prettier buttons and banner bar from Tom Wiltshire
* A4, A5, 6x9 PDF books now available
* And so much more that I've lost track...
