Mudlet 2.1

Post by Vadi »

Mudlet 2.1 here! It adds built-in doors rendering support for the mapper, open protocol support (tools to allow you to add support for non-supported telnet protocols) and exit weights (along with pre-existing room weights).

One error is reported by apt during installation of the ubuntu package from the ppa. Usefulness of the report is doubtful at best, but I'm reporting it anyway. ;)

Hello,

Noticed that the title bar of the installer states you are installing "Mudlet 2.0" even though you are installing 2.1, should probably update it to prevent any confusions.

Another display() bug:

When using display on an iterated table (such as matches, or multimatches), it does not display the key. This makes it hard, on larger iterated tables, to know which key you wanted to modify, or what value goes with which key.

I get lines that randomly appear and disappear when i move around the map.
They occur where I change the z level of a room so that up/down rooms are on the same z level. Also some custom exit lines are showing the same behavior.
On the screenshot you can see a random line generated by the orange room, heading off to nowhere, if I try to pan to follow the line it goes away. I've checked my exits and they seem to be ok.
Thanks

Getting the issue with installPackage that was affecting the package manager, where the Package name is being listed as the path. I didn't have this issue in 2.0.

I was helping Akaya in the IRC channel today, and he's working on scripts to parse some MSDP output. Unfortunately, this seems to involve some odd control characters or ansi of some sort. I am attaching a zip file with a .xml file in it. This xml file only contains the sections from Akaya's profile which were causing it not to finish loading.

Once I took these pieces out, it was able to load the information which was past them in the file.

With us having open protocol support, the chance of these characters needing to be dealt with in scripts increases.

The issue was apparent in all of the last several copies of his profile, and the files themselves look like they saved properly, they just wouldn't read in correctly.

Akaya may be able to give more information on the actual usage of the items in question, I just wanted to make sure this was noted on the forums after working to get his profile loadable again, as it could be

a.) part of the mystery of the disappearing profiles with no discernable reasons we've seen reported in the past
b.) incredibly frustrating to the scripters trying to extend Mudlet's protocol support using our open protocol framework.


If I can provide any more information to the folks who can sling the code, let me know.

echoPopup seems to have an issue, wherein all the tooltips in the tooltip table are displayed simply by hovering over it, even though left-clicking only runs the first one... Thus, only that tooltip should be shown on hover, with all of them being shown only on right click. Or, just that one, with another line that says 'right click for more', although that could be added by the script using echoPopup as well.
