Rocks'n'Diamonds 4.2.0.0:

The most important change is the long-awaited update of the Emerald Mine game \ 
engine, which was based on an old version of David Tritscher’s “Emerald Mine \ 
for X11” from 2000/2001. The new game engine uses a more recent code base from \ 
2009, which contains new features and bug fixes and improves the compatibility \ 
of the game engine with many levels from the Emerald Mine Club level collection \ 
(while preserving compatibility of already recorded tapes).

The most important Emerald Mine game engine related changes are:

support for wrap-around levels (like level 80 from level set “Ruppelmine 2”)
improved handling of chain-explosions of the “bug” game element
improved handling of the “fake acid” game element
improved handling of various other game elements (like burning dynamite)
As another important improvement, the whole build system was updated for all \ 
platforms to support today’s development tools and to support the most recent \ 
versions of the SDL libraries, which removes several problems when building the \ 
game on current systems. This also includes native 64-bit support for the \ 
Windows version.

Here’s an overview of the most important build system changes:

added support for cross-compiling to Windows 64-bit platform
added CPU architecture (32/64 bit) to version info screen
added build support for older versions of Mac OS X
changed build system for Android from Ant to Gradle
updated SDL libraries to the latest versions for all platforms

The following features and bug fixes were added to custom elements:

added being able to use CE condition “CE value/score gets 0”
added mouse click events to CE change events (experimental)
added new change action “move player new” to CE change actions
added support for tapes with both keyboard/joystick and mouse actions
fixed bug with reanimating killed player by CE condition

The following additions and fixes are related to global animations:

added option to generally set global animations to block clicks
added missing handling of animation mode “random” for global animations
fixed drawing global animations when switching screens without fading

Additionally, there are the following new features and bug fixes:

added workaround for a bug in SDL 2.0.12 which prevents transparency
fixed potential crash bug if personal user level set cannot be found
changed move speed for some elements for older game engine versions
fixed element property that caused levels/tapes to be unsolvable
