Gameplay
What is the Yahtzee Bonus and how do I get one?
Yahtzee Bonus is a special bonus worth 100 points given for scoring multiple Yahtzees. Inorder to receive a Yahtzee Bonus, you should score a Yahtzee in the Yahtzee score box. From now, each additional Yahtzee you get, you will receive a Yahtzee Bonus upon scoring it in any of the open boxes.
How do I get the bonus in the Upper Section?
You get the bonus in the upper section if you score 63 points or more in the Upper Section. The bonus is worth 35 points.
Compiling
What are the requirements to compile Open Yahtzee?
To compile open Yahtzee You will need Sqlite-3.0 (or newer) and wxWidgets-2.6 (or newer).
I compiled Open Yahtzee against wxWidgets-2.6.4 and some parts of the game seems broken. Why?
wxWidgets-2.6.4 introduces couple of new bugs, which unfortunately break some of the functionality (mainly the items in the About dialog and changing the layout to horizontal). My Advice it to upgrade to wxWidgets-2.8 branch, or downgrade back to wxWidgets-2.6.3 and recompile the game.
