1 root 1.51 Revision history for Perl extension Deliantra::Client
2 root 1.2
3 root 1.171 TODO: add help to completer, add close tab to completer, do stuff to complete
4     TODO: warn about sofwtare renderers
5     TODO: [num] indicator malfunctioning
6 root 1.173 TODO: cfplus_ext => 2 is sometimes not beign negotiated! (hack in place, need better protocol)
7 root 1.172
8 root 1.173 TODO: BDB releasen.
9     - verify databases if we are the first process to register, to
10     detect corruption as is common on windows (but not limited to
11     windows, unfortunately).
12 root 1.172 - rely on AnyEvent to work around totally broken windows vista
13     tcp/ip subsystem once more (where getpeername returns fantasy
14     ports).
15     - use newer BDB version that works around windows vista tcp/ip
16     breakage.
17 root 1.173 - initialise the default resolver during startup, as windows vista
18     forces us back to the desktop when doing this later(!).
19 root 1.171
20 root 1.170 2.02 Wed Dec 24 06:02:53 CET 2008
21 root 1.164 - mark hidden mapspaces visually with a question mark.
22 root 1.165 - make hidden spaces as light as the darkest normal spaces.
23 root 1.162 - don't lie about the window size anymore in fear of crashing
24     the server (as we are dealing with deliantra servers only these days).
25 root 1.163 - correctly draw the speech bubbles and other overlays even when the
26     topmost face isn't visible.
27 root 1.164 - fix swirly tile draw offset.
28 root 1.166 - fix a crash when the user clicks on the map during log-in.
29 root 1.168 - incorporate tips of the day by botz (former madness).
30 root 1.169 - handle failure to load a music face more gracefully (still
31     log the error, but do not crash, instead, ignore the failure).
32     - try to log, instead of crash, on the "cannot call update method"
33     problem.
34 root 1.162
35     2.01 - (Mon Dec 15 00:41:33 CET 2008)
36 root 1.159 - rewrote the client tutorial which can be found via the 'Help!' button.
37     - fixed the mostly random switching of message window tabs when
38     new tabs were added.

44 elmex 1.153 - the Log window can't be close anymore by alt+x

48 root 1.154 - darken the invisible/cached parts of the map further.

54 elmex 1.149 - fixed updating of tooltips of the tabs in the message window.
55 elmex 1.150 - closing tabs with Alt-x won't let them disappear for every anymore.

68 elmex 1.135 - fixed clearing issue in the inventory upon logout.
69 root 1.142 - use the same workarounds for pango for gnu/linux binaries as we use for osx,

71     debian maintainers of course apply custom patches that completely break it.
72 root 1.131
73 root 1.129 0.9976 Fri Sep 5 17:28:30 CEST 2008

76     - treat meta like alt for built-ins, for OS X.
77 root 1.111 - fix tab tooltip listing key shortcut off by one.

94 root 1.107 - use biggest video mode <= 1024x768 by default now (previous releases had a bug
95     that caused them to select the smallest vdieo mode available).

99

102 root 1.94 - try a different workaround to maybe register Deliantra::Client.

104     possible fallback-to-software-renderer problems.

106 root 1.95 - decode player from map1ax.
107 root 1.98 - made libsdl1.2.10+ a requirement.
108     - improve the slider widget.

114     0.9973 Mon Jul 7 09:27:59 CEST 2008

123     the problem of map border "black out" in the minimap).
124     - use an even more compact format for minimap data.
125     - use an uncompressed cache for minimap data, increases memory requirements

128     clicking on them after logging out.
129     - support xml formatting in ex replies (item tooltips, requires server
130     2.54+).

132     these are usually keyrepeats.
133 elmex 1.81 - added default (0) for the shift_fire_stop setting
134 root 1.80 - write client.cf in pretty-printed-json.
135 root 1.86 - avoid crashes if map cache is corrupted.

169     become visible again.
170     - the max number of paragraphs in the chattabs were not limited,

173     deep red :-)
174 elmex 1.60 - fixed a small inconvenience in the history handling of chat tab entries
175     (hitting cursor-up or cursor-down won't erase what you typed by accident

193 root 1.40 - improve interactivity by using a prepare, not an idle watcher,
194     for screen refreshes.

219     - fix two problems that would cause endless
220     refreshes even when idle (up to 60Hz).
