UAE4All: clock not working in Hunter

[john4p]

UAE4All is based off UAE 0.8.22.

In the game Hunter the time always stays at 0:00, day 0 (tried multiple versions). Is that a problem inherited by this old UAE-version? If yes, how has it been fixed in later versions of UAE/WinUAE?

You move him with the joystick. Fire is shoot (or deploy bomb) once you have weapons equipped.

If you walk into vehicles (cars, tanks, bicycles, boats, helicopter, etc.) you take control of them and use the joystick to move with them. Press <space> to leave the vehicle and proceed on foot again.
The helicopter has a special control mechanism: hold fire+joystick down to lift off the ground and fire+up to land (I think).

The mouse is just used to equip and use items, open your logbook and save/restore the game.

Yes, that's the bug. On a real Amiga or in WinUAE (so probably in E-UAE and your P-UAE, too) the time should be constantly incremented. After about 5 seconds or so it should be "00:01", then 5 seconds later "00:02" and so on.
And the day should show "1st" at the beginning.

Well, just found this in Hunter's manual:

Okay, thread can be closed now...
