For the record the matches entity is a global Lua table - i.e. visible in all parts of the Lua sub-system for example: Triggers, Timers, KeyBindings, etc. - (and the profile's command line) which gets populated automagically by some of the C++ application code with data from the results of the use o...

How are you creating those timers - using the GUI (Editor) timers that I create both at a top level and inside a group are both being run on profile loading without any further interaction. However I am aware of an issue that I still have to fix in that if you have the editor open and you select a t...

I have heard that non-administrator users on Windows 10 are not permitted to create symbolic-links to directories anymore - is that really the case and does that mean that Mudlet cannot create the link from C:\Users\username\.config\mudlet to C:\Users\username\mudlet-data for those users?

Have you considered installing a lighter weight Linux install into some space freed up from the en...

You should be able to build the current Mudlet from source code in Ubuntu using a 32-bit machine however you will have to use the system provided Qt development ( qmake qt project file processor/ Qt Creator IDE) tools as Qt themselves no longer compile and publish a 32bit x86 SDK to provide these......

Don't forget, you can store the details in the map itself (using setMapUserData and related functions)...

The map needs to know the room number where the player is located (a valid position ) if you have a map system installed for the MUD you may need to issue a command, such as look so that the details of your current location is sent from the Server - if the MUD is using GMCP then the location details...

That is an unusual Port Number choice as 6666-6669 are the official Port numbers used by Internet Relay Chat (IRC) servers; see. e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_T ... rt_numbers ...

You will want to look at the event system and specifically the raiseGlobalEvent(...) function that is specifically designed to send the event (the first argument, a string) and all the other arguments {and at the end the name of the profile that raised the event!} through the event system to all the...
