31 ; The object of the game is to find four hidden balls by shooting rays | |
32 ; into the black box. There are four possibilities: 1) the ray will | |
33 ; pass thru the box undisturbed, 2) it will hit a ball and be absorbed, | |
34 ; 3) it will be deflected and exit the box, or 4) be deflected immediately, | |
35 ; not even being allowed entry into the box. | |
36 ; | |
37 ; The strange part is the method of deflection. It seems that rays will | |
38 ; not pass next to a ball, and change direction at right angles to avoid it. | |
39 ; | |

50 ; | |
51 ; Rays which enter and exit are numbered. You can see that rays 1 & 5 pass | |
52 ; thru the box undisturbed. Ray 2 is deflected by the northwesternmost | |
53 ; ball. Likewise rays 3 and 4. Rays which hit balls and are absorbed are | |
54 ; marked with H. The bottom of the left and the right of the bottom hit | |
55 ; the southeastern ball directly. Rays may also hit balls after being | |
56 ; reflected. Consider the H on the bottom next to the 4. It bounces off | |
57 ; the NW-ern most ball and hits the central ball. A ray shot from above | |
58 ; the right side 5 would hit the SE-ern most ball. The R beneath the 5 | |
59 ; is because the ball is returned instantly. It is not allowed into | |
60 ; the box if it would reflect immediately. The R on the top is a more | |
61 ; leisurely return. Both central balls would tend to deflect it east | |
62 ; or west, but it cannot go either way, so it just retreats. | |
63 ; | |
64 ; At the end of the game, if you've placed guesses for as many balls as | |
65 ; there are in the box, the true board position will be revealed. Each | |
66 ; `x' is an incorrect guess of yours; `o' is the true location of a ball. | |

115 | |
116 What is blackbox? | |
117 | |
118 Blackbox is a game of hide and seek played on an 8 by 8 grid (the | |
119 Blackbox). Your opponent (Emacs, in this case) has hidden several | |
120 balls (usually 4) within this box. By shooting rays into the box and | |
121 observing where they emerge it is possible to deduce the positions of | |
122 the hidden balls. The fewer rays you use to find the balls, the lower | |
123 your score. | |
124 | |
125 Overview of play: | |
126 | |
826 | 127 \\<blackbox-mode-map>\ |
128 To play blackbox, type \\[blackbox]. An optional prefix argument | |
129 specifies the number of balls to be hidden in the box; the default is | |
130 four. | |
473 | 131 |
132 The cursor can be moved around the box with the standard cursor | |
133 movement keys. | |
134 | |
135 To shoot a ray, move the cursor to the edge of the box and press SPC. | |
136 The result will be determined and the playfield updated. | |
137 | |
138 You may place or remove balls in the box by moving the cursor into the | |
826 | 139 box and pressing \\[bb-romp]. |
473 | 140 |
141 When you think the configuration of balls you have placed is correct, | |
826 | 142 press \\[bb-done]. You will be informed whether you are correct or |
143 not, and be given your score. Your score is the number of letters and | |
144 numbers around the outside of the box plus five for each incorrectly | |
145 placed ball. If you placed any balls incorrectly, they will be | |
146 indicated with `x', and their actual positions indicated with `o'. | |
473 | 147 |
148 Details: | |
149 | |
150 There are three possible outcomes for each ray you send into the box: | |
151 | |
152 Detour: the ray is deflected and emerges somewhere other than | |
153 where you sent it in. On the playfield, detours are | |
154 denoted by matching pairs of numbers -- one where the | |
155 ray went in, and the other where it came out. | |
156 | |
157 Reflection: the ray is reflected and emerges in the same place | |
158 it was sent in. On the playfield, reflections are | |
159 denoted by the letter `R'. | |
160 | |
161 Hit: the ray strikes a ball directly and is absorbed. It does | |
162 not emerge from the box. On the playfield, hits are | |
163 denoted by the letter `H'. | |
164 | |
165 The rules for how balls deflect rays are simple and are best shown by | |
166 example. | |
167 | |
168 As a ray approaches a ball it is deflected ninety degrees. Rays can | |
169 be deflected multiple times. In the diagrams below, the dashes | |
170 represent empty box locations and the letter `O' represents a ball. | |
171 The entrance and exit points of each ray are marked with numbers as | |
172 described under \"Detour\" above. Note that the entrance and exit | |
173 points are always interchangeable. `*' denotes the path taken by the | |
174 ray. | |
175 | |
176 Note carefully the relative positions of the ball and the ninety | |
177 degree deflection it causes. | |

189 | |
190 As mentioned above, a reflection occurs when a ray emerges from the same point | |
191 it was sent in. This can happen in several ways: | |
192 | |
193 | |
194 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | |
195 - - - - O - - - - - O - O - - - - - - - - - - - | |
196 R * * * * - - - - - - - * - - - - O - - - - - - - | |
197 - - - - O - - - - - - * - - - - R - - - - - - - - | |
198 - - - - - - - - - - - * - - - - - - - - - - - - | |
199 - - - - - - - - - - - * - - - - - - - - - - - - | |
200 - - - - - - - - R * * * * - - - - - - - - - - - - | |
201 - - - - - - - - - - - - O - - - - - - - - - - - | |
202 | |
203 In the first example, the ray is deflected downwards by the upper | |
204 ball, then left by the lower ball, and finally retraces its path to | |
205 its point of origin. The second example is similar. The third | |
206 example is a bit anomalous but can be rationalized by realizing the | |
207 ray never gets a chance to get into the box. Alternatively, the ray | |
208 can be thought of as being deflected downwards and immediately | |
209 emerging from the box. | |
210 | |
211 A hit occurs when a ray runs straight into a ball: | |
212 | |
213 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | |
214 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - O - - - | |
215 - - - - - - - - - - - - O - - - H * * * * - - - - | |
216 - - - - - - - - H * * * * O - - - - - - * - - - - | |
217 - - - - - - - - - - - - O - - - - - - O - - - - | |
218 H * * * O - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | |
219 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | |
220 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | |
221 | |
222 Be sure to compare the second example of a hit with the first example of | |
223 a reflection." | |
