Title: Suggestion: Get AGS Version from script
Post by: RickJ on Sun 07/03/2004 18:10:44
Is it possible to get the AGS Version the game was compiled under rom script?  If not could this be added without too much trouble?   Maybe something like a variable system.version or a constant #define AGSVERSION.  

This would make it very easy to put the correct Version in the credits and help of a game.  If someone had trouble playing it in the future they would know for sure which AGS version the thing was made with.    

It would also be helpful to have a mention of the AGS version in the help file.

Thanks.

Adding a system.version variable sounds like the best approach here - I'll add it to my list.

QuoteIt would also be helpful to have a mention of the AGS version in the help file.

The help file used to mention the version number, but I was always forgetting to update it and it became more of a hassle than it was worth, so I removed it completely :)
