323 Release Notes

• Fixed: Plugged a source of graphical glitches involving screen objects on scrollable views.

• Fixed: The ftp() command wasn't saving files in the selected directory. (Shadowdarke)

• Fixed: Verb arguments with possible values containing quotes were causing command-line parse errors on valid input. (Skysaw)

• Fixed: Setting client.view was causing client.lazy_eye to get turned on unless it was explicitly assigned somewhere in the code. (Skysaw)

• Fixed: world.view was reporting the wrong value (N/2) when the world was compiled with world/view = "NxN" where N was an even number.

• Fixed: Even dimensions of client.lazy_eye were allowing the mob to stray one cell off the edge of the screen.

• Fixed: Certain types of savefile corruption were causing freezes when loading the file. Although the freezes should be eliminated, we still need more data on how these corrupt savefiles are being created. More error checking is being done now to try to report inconsistencies when they are generated, so if you can find a reliable method for producing a corrupt savefile, please let us know! (Sariat)

• Fixed: savefile.ExportText() was not preserving the full precision of numbers. (Air Mapster)

• Fixed: new/verb(location) was producing a BYOND BUG report instead of a proc crash when location was not a valid verb container. (Kevin Kitsune)

• Fixed: list(/some/type = 123) was not compiling. (Lesbian Assassin)

• Fixed:L The login dialogue was doing a roving login when given a valid key name matching a locally installed key but differing in spaces or punctuation. (Air Mapster)

• Fixed: When using a roving key, client-side savefiles accessed via client.Import() were generating error messages in the case where no savefile existed. In the case of a roving key, client-side savefiles are actually stored at the hub, which is why there were special problems. (Air Mapster)

• Fixed: The compiler was letting nested proc and verb blocks silently slip by. (Nadrew)

• Fixed: The compiler was messing up on typesof(/some/object/verb) when only one verb was defined there. (Foomer)

• Fixed: Overlays restored from savefiles were no longer equivalent to the original, causing subtraction of overlays to fail. (RaeKwon)

• image() now takes optional pixel_x and pixel_y arguments. These parameters were also not being saved for overlays.

• Installation of hub packages now gracefully handles the unexpected case where previously installed files were deleted by some other means than uninstallation via Dream Seeker.

• Changed a bunch of backend code to separate out the pager from the client. Let us know if anything is busted. The next big release to BYOND will involve an interface upgrade to finish the process.
