Changes to Empire 4.2.21 - Sat Jun 18 17:33:07 UTC 2005
|
||||||
|
* Fix board mil duplication. Broken in 4.2.14.
|
||||||
|
* Fix stack smash in lrange, shoot and execute. Remote holes, and
|
||||||
|
the last one doesn't even require authentication.
|
||||||
|
* Fix crash bug in emp_config parsing.
|
||||||
|
* Fix shutdown second argument.
|
||||||
|
* tele and turn now abort on EOF.
|
||||||
|
* Fix buffer overruns in turn and shutdown.
|
||||||
|
* Fix display of MOTD and game down message of maximum size.
|
||||||
|
* Correctly support telnet line termination on input. Previously,
|
||||||
|
carriage returns could slip into ship names and such.
|
||||||
|
* Fix flash not to lie about recipients that are just logging in.
|
||||||
|
* Remove obscure login command list.
|
||||||
|
* Convert client from obsolete termcap to terminfo, and clean up
|
||||||
|
terminal handling.
|
||||||
|
* Rename info topics so they don't just differ in case. Rename deity
|
||||||
|
command hidden to peek because its info topic clashed with that of
|
||||||
|
option HIDDEN.
|
||||||
|
* New fairland option -h to print usage information. Improved
|
||||||
|
command line syntax diagnostics. Exit unsuccessfully on unknown
|
||||||
|
options.
|
||||||
|
* fleet and army now copy retreat orders of the fleet's or army's
|
||||||
|
first member with group retreat orders in the same sector.
|
||||||
|
Previously, they used the retreat orders of the first fleet or army
|
||||||
|
member, which is less than useful, and failed to take ownership
|
||||||
|
into account, which is an abusable bug.
|
||||||
|
* New xdump nation.
|
||||||
|
* Fix xdump not to disclose other countries' losses.
|
||||||
|
* Fix exit status of files program when it can't create files.
|
||||||
|
* Support UTF-8 encoded Unicode in human-human communications. This
|
||||||
|
affects MOTD, game down message, telexes, announcements and flash
|
||||||
|
messages. See doc/unicode for technical details.
|
||||||
|
* New login command `options' for client/server option negotiation.
|
||||||
|
See doc/FIXME for technical details. The only option so far is
|
||||||
|
UTF-8.
|
||||||
|
* emp_client -u now requests UTF-8. This requires a terminal that
|
||||||
|
understands UTF-8.
|
||||||
|
* Fix news for defensive land unit support.
|
||||||
|
* Properly mark seamines hit by retreating ships. Unmark mines
|
||||||
|
cleared by bridges.
|
||||||
|
* Fix diagnostics for unknown selector names in conditionals. Broken
|
||||||
|
in 4.2.20.
|
||||||
|
* Fix selector name clashes: rename ship selector mobquota to mquota,
|
||||||
|
land selector for reaction range limit from rad to rmax.
|
||||||
|
* Fix Windows services for relative file names on command line or in
|
||||||
|
econfig. Broken in 4.2.20.
|
||||||
|
* econfig keys ship_grow_scale, plane_grow_scale and land_grow_scale
|
||||||
|
are now loat. This gives deities finer control over maximum
|
||||||
|
efficiency gain.
|
||||||
|
* Fix production command for sectors with 60% efficiency.
|
||||||
|
* Improve syntax of read for deities.
|
||||||
|
* Code cleanups.
|
||||||
|
* Some info topic names differed only in case, which loses on
|
||||||
|
case-insensitive filesystems, and is a bad user interface even when
|
||||||
|
it works. Change those names.
|
||||||
|
* Documentation fixes.
