Description Stirling Westrup 2009-12-31 05:16:06 UTC

Version:           3.0 (02 Aug 2007) (using 4.3.4 (KDE 4.3.4), Debian packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.30-2-amd64

I'm classifying this as a bug report, and not a feature request because previous versions KMines had no trouble with custom games that were 50x50 and had roughly 300 mines. As this is the style of game that I typically play, I immediately noticed when a game upgrade suddenly made it impossible to play large games any more.

How to reproduce:
1) Go to Settings -> Configure KMines -> Custom Game
2) Attempt to set a game to 50 x 50 with 350 mines.

Additional:
The maximum value of '99' for mines is suspiciously base 10. Could it be that someone thought 2 digits would always be enough?

Note, I set the limit to 200 ... it that reasonable or can it be 999 even?
