254 Release Notes

• Fixed: Double-clicking to open a file wasn't always working because of a stupid path problem. Hacked around it. (Guy T., Spuzzum!)

• Fixed: The client was incorrectly parsing commands like "my-command[return]", requiring a space before the [return]. (Deadron)

• Fixed: DreamSeeker wasn't working in WinNT because it was trying to access an i/o video port directly. (RainbowScorpio, Guy T.)

• Fixed: Certain client configurations, like "chat-command", weren't being saved properly. (Al)

• Fixed: Bad DMI icons were causing freeze-ups when they were attempted to be read. Now the error checking is a little better. (Deadron)

• Fixed: There was a minor syntax coloring problem in DreamMaker. (Spuzzum)

• Fixed: Key renewals were sometimes not registering properly. Hopefully we'll have this all automated in the future.

• Fixed: design-time direction settings on turf underlays were not being preserved. (Al)

• Fixed: The second argument to Click() (the click location) for turfs on the map was always null. It is now equal to the turf (which is the same as the first argument, but which is convenient if all you care about is the second argument).

• Fixed: There was a shutdown problem that was causing the client to hang for a little while when trying to simultaneously open the pager and a world. (I think.)

• If a verb only has one possible target, it will automatically be used when the verb is typed or clicked sans target-name. If people don't like this behavior, we can change it back later.

• When the server gets multiple connections from the same key, it now boots off the old connection and forges the new one. It used to boot them both off. Since the most common reason for this is an old zombie session (due to an abrupt disconnection) this seems a more sensible behavior.
