Mudlet features and API requests

It would be nice to have an Undo button in the script editor, for when mistakes are made... Example is if you are working on a script and you go up to click save, but accidentally in your eagerness to do so hit the delete button! All that progress lost on that script... if only it could come back with one simple click.

Just use a text editor when editing scripts.

Crisis averted!

I certainly agree, but making that simple click functionality work is a fairly big effort to make happen.

log splitting - It would be nice if there was an option to allow the log files to split on a daily basis (or each time it connects)

As it is currently its a pain to search logs if the application is left open

It would be really handy if there were a version of the replace function that could accept color codes, in the same way that cecho and cinsertText do.

Two requests (on the proviso that I may be blind and they may exist)

1) A way to clear the errors window when editing scripts. I find it hard to spot new/recurring errors off the timestamp to the option to clear it and see any new errors would be great.

2) When deleting a room on the mapper, turn all exits (not exit stubs) into exit stubs from the linked room. So if room 1 and room 2 and joined and I delete room 2, I'd want to keep the stub from room 1, pointing at where room 2 was. I'm fairly confident I can write a function to do this but I personally feel this is a more suitable default action (perhaps 2 options, "delete room" and "delete room and exits").

I hope those are reasonable!

My script doesn't use exit stubs - for me, deleting a room and creating exit stubs would not be useful and just create extra work.

[Tagon]

Would an alternative delete option in the right-click menu be possible, or a preference setting somewhere, or is it just a blanket dumb idea?

Couple of other thoughts:

Also the ability to select a group of rooms in the visual mapper then use the list of selected rooms as a lua table would be very useful (for mass-setting env variables and I could run a stub-retaining delete function on them). Whether this is activated lua-side with something like table = getSelectedRooms() or a right click option to a default names table, I'm not fussy.

Also, any chance that searchRoom() could accept regexp? I have a need to select an exact room name, nothing before or after, and currently this means searching and then comparing each result to see if it matches exactly.

Hmm, sure.
