Common Options
The following options are found in most games.
- Seed #:
-
If the Seed # checkbox has been set, the number next to the checkbox is used
as the seed for the random number generator which determines how the cards
are shuffled before the start of a game. A random number will be used as the
seed (the identity of which will be grayed out in the text entry field) if
the checkbox is not set. Games which use the same seed should begin with the
same layout of cards (I cannot guarantee this for all platforms).
- Display Timer
- If this checkbox is set, the timer will be displayed in the status
line at the bottom of the browser window.
The following options are found in some games.
- Automatic card moving
- If this option is set, cards will be automatically removed from the building
stacks (and moved to the suit or discard stack) if there are no other cards
that can be placed on them.
- Starting rank
- This option sets the rank of the
cards at the tops of the suit stacks at the start of the game. A new game
must be started for this option to take effect. Increasing this value will
result in an easier game.
- Empty spaces accept
-
This option determines what cards empty building stacks accept.
