FS#6127 - Bubbles bug when completing game

Bubbles has 100 levels. The last level is 100/100. When you complete level 100 the game congratulates you and goes back to the main game screen - however you cannot select level 100 (e.g. if you want to replay the last level). The highest level you can select is level 99 which is one level before the last level. Another off-by-one error.

Patch committed

The high level wasn’t being saved when you won a game. This has just now been fixed in CVS. Can you please confirm that everything works OK now and I will close this bug.

Now, when completing the game, the high level is saved as 101. This lets you then play level 101 (which doesn’t exist and is unplayable). Could you amend your fix to include the same kind of fix you made to Star (but additionally with the change that the high level used [and displayed] is max( saved high level, 100 ) so that I get the correct behaviour on my device? - or will I need to hexedit some settings file somewhere to reset that?)

Can you please test this patch. I believe it should fix your problem, but I’m not good enough at the game to test fully. Also, note that you can edit the file /.rockbox/rocks/bubbles.score using a hex editor to set your max level available. Changing the first byte to 0×63 will make up to level 100 accessible, while making it 0×62 makes level 99 accessible.

interestingly, bubbles.score doesn’t seem to be written by Bubbles on the sdl sim (at least on cygwin anyway).
with your patch I still get a high level of 101 saved when completing the game. I will implement a better patch and post it here.

Actually I think your patch does work (although with my current bubbles.score I guess my high level is already 101 - your patch doesn’t clean that up but seems to do the right thing apart from that). Also, the highscores aren’t updated correctly (on completing the game, the level in the highscore table is recorded as level 99 rather than level 100 - similarly, scoring a high score on level 2 is recorded with your patch as level 1 rather than level 2). I should have a patch in a moment that addresses this.

I think this patch address all three issues (prevents bogus level selection after completing game; prevents invalid highlevel in saved scorefile (e.g. after scorefile corruption) showing up as a selectable level when loading game; persists high scores correctly when completing game). Would you be able to commit on my behalf pls
