      1D: 3^1 - 1 = 3 - 1 = 2
      2D: 3^2 - 1 = 9 - 1 = 8
      3D: 3^3 - 1 = 27 - 1 = 26
      4D: 3^4 - 1 = 81 - 1 = 80
      Heck, this even holds true for 0D minesweeper. There’s only a single square possible in 0D minesweeper, so there’s no number possibility; 3^0 - 1 = 1 - 1 = 0

    one little known fact. in the original minesweeper game, if the first cell a player clicks would have had a mine under it, that mine would instantly be moved to another location.

    • @Liggliluff
      @Liggliluff 11 місяців тому +76

      It would be moved to the top left, unless that's the one you clicked or there's already a mine there, then it'll continue testing squares I think towards the right.
      Newer MS Minesweeper instead regenerates a board so your first click is safe and I have a feeling it tries to prioritise a zero. MS Minesweeper on Vista was the first MS Minesweeper where you could lose on a first click since it let you replay the same arrangement, and the game told you that.

    btw i did 6-dimensional minesweeper as a pet project and it is just crazy. in fact, I can make any number and length of dimensions, but it is hard to make a view for all of them.
    The thing I noticed is how drastically bomb percentage decreases for difficulty to stay the same across rising number of dimensions. and also it is a bit laggy when you make 10*10*10*10*10*10 grid (well I can see why).
    I think for dimensions above 10 there will be 0.1% of bombs and it will be enough to blow up your mind

    perhaps I should make a “minesweeper on a fractional dimensional graph”.
    (by which I mean: graphs from families of graphs where, for large graphs from that family, if you take the r ball centered at a given vertex, for large r (but where the size of the graph is large compared to r), the size of the ball will be approximately proportional to r^(some fractional (I.e. non-integer, not necessarily a rational number) number).
    )
    Though, for the fractal dimension to really come into play as a relevant approximation, would probably need a rather large graph,
    and maybe like, instead of just “how many mines are directly adjacent?”, instead “how many mines are there within r steps along the graph”?
    I.e. within the radius r ball
    Hmm...
    I guess then each clicked/investigated cell could show like “how many direct neighbors”, “how many within the ball of radius 3?”, and “how many within the ball of radius 5?”
    Though maybe showing 3 numbers for each cell would be too much.
    ...
    and that’s not even getting into “how to arrange the graph on the screen”.
    Oh! Maybe instead of each investigated cell showing the number of mines within each of a number of distances,
    instead:
    If there are any mines among direct neighbors, it shows how many,
    but if there are none, it indicates that, along with how many there are within the r=3 ball,
    or, if none, how many within the r=5 ball, etc.
    So, each would show two numbers: the first would be “the largest radius among a certain list (maybe ‘0,1,3,5,9’?) such that the ball of that radius centered at this vertex has no mines”, and the second would be, “the number of mines within (the ball with the next radius from that list)”.
    I think for this, to really illustrate the fractional dimension aspect of it, we would probably want the graphs to be very big, with the mines distributed in a rather sparse way.
    And, to make this playable, should definitely make the neighbors of the investigated cells with no neighboring mines, to be automatically investigated.
    I still have the question of “how to display such a graph on a screen”.
    Well, if the family of graphs is associated with a dimensionality between 2 and 3, (or, even if between 1 and 2?)
    if we place the graph in 3D space, that should probably work out alright?
    Like, maybe let the player like, rotate the embedding of the graph?
    Ok, then...
    I know there are some algorithms for like, putting a graph in 3D space in a way that tries to make graph-distance be approximated by the Euclidean distance.
    But, would any of those easy for me to implement?

      4D VR is just a 3D video where you can experience each individual frame separately but also simultaneously. So essentially, just layer all frames of a video on top of each other, but make it so that you can clearly distinguish each individual frame. For 5D, each of these frames are just replaced with videos. Of course, this is under the assumption that time is the 4th axis in the same family as length width and height.

    did you know you can figure the maximum number by:
    3^D-1
    by D=dimention like
    3^3-1=8
    meaning the maximum number of 3D is 8.
