Changes since Lima 1.0b1

Sun Jul 2 09:00:32 2000: Tigran

updated help release

Sun Jul 2 22:08:05 2000: Tigran

modified compile() in LPSCRIPT_D so that it will not regenerate the tmp file if the tmp file is newer than the source file.

Fri Jul 7 14:45:01 2000: Tigran

made a change to SOCKET to utilize an updated socket_address() efun

Fri Jul 7 16:38:34 2000: Tigran

added a local_address() function to SOCKET (That's harder to get than you might think and this way is better)

Fri Jul 7 16:38:34 2000: Tigran

made various modifications to FTP_D to remove resolve() calls that are no longer necessary with the recent SOCKET modifications

Sat Jul 8 00:43:46 2000: Tigran

fixed FTP_D to return an empty list when trying to ls /. rather than a 550 error. The other way worked, but was not what is proper. (This still isn't perfect, but it's much much closer. It's not an error now, but still gives an extra linefeed, which may be acceptable)

Fri Jul 14 12:58:51 2000: Loriel

fixed BODY (/std/body.c) to inherit /std/body/skills.c (subject to the define USE_SKILLS), removing comments and fixing a typo.

Sat Jul 15 12:18:58 2000: Loriel

fixed M_ITEMS (/std/modules/m_items.c), changing "long" to "look" in line 43.

Tue Jul 18 09:49:03 2000: Tigran

fixed a typo in M_EXIT on line 327. query_method_destination should be query_method_description

Tue Jul 18 10:14:55 2000: Tigran

made a modification to M_EXIT to automatically append a \n to an exit description if it does not already have one. (lines 341,342 added)

Tue Jul 18 10:24:53 2000: Tigran

modified the look verb so that you can now look at exits. This means that exits can be described with set_exit_description(dir,desc) from the room. (This function is smart enough to set the long of complex exits as well though not preferred and may change). add_item()'s will still error if you add_item() an item with the same name as a simple exit(which shouldn't happen).

Sun Jul 23 09:53:34 2000: Loriel

fixed the typo "bask" to "back" in /domains/std/Example_Room1.c

Sun Jul 23 12:04:27 2000: Loriel

extended /include/combat_modules.h to handle FORMULA_STATS.

Sun Jul 23 12:09:05 2000: Loriel

extended /std/adversary/mod_config.c to recognise FORMULA_STATS as a valid option.

Wed Aug 2 14:16:01 2000: Tigran

(re)installed the colours command that works without the CONFIGURABLE_COLOUR define that was removed a /long/ time ago

Sun Aug 6 08:29:16 2000: Loriel

fixed /domains/std/table.c, changing the inherit from COMPLEX_CONTAINER to CONTAINER and added a default relation of "on" (Thanks to Jonez for pointing this out).

Sun Aug 6 12:34:30 2000: Loriel

amended PLAYER_MENU (/obj/mudlib/plmemu.c) to better handle prompting to change the ansi setting, by adding an intermediate function prompt_change_ansi() (problem and solution courtesy of Jonez).

Sun Aug 6 13:39:12 2000: Tigran

added some additional LPSCRIPT functionality to OBJECT> Objects now retain their lpscript_attributes after first use so that they do not have to be recalculated every time an lpscript object is loaded. A list of lpscript_attributes for a given object can also be acquired with list_lpscript_attributes(). A copy of the mapping is attained through dump_lpscript_attributes().

Tue Aug 8 20:09:08 2000: Loriel

changed the north exit in /domains/std/cult/Foyer.c from ../room2 to ../Relations_And_Toys. Thanks to Marroc for pointing this out.

Fri Aug 18 17:09:00 2000: Loriel

amended /trans/cmds/cat.c, changing line 22 to avoid looping on an empty string when reading a null file. Thanks to Rakk for pointing out the problem.

Mon Sep 4 21:32:48 2000: Tigran

added go down as an equivalent to descend and 'go up' as an equivalent to 'ascend' in METHOD_D

Thu Sep 7 09:08:20 2000: Tigran

added has_method() to M_COMPLEX_EXIT

Thu Sep 7 09:09:10 2000: Tigran

rewrote STAIRS. This may be a bit of a compat buster, but I don't think so. It is no longer necessary for STAIRS to have arguments passed to it's crete/setup() in order for them to properly function.

Thu Sep 7 09:09:50 2000: Tigran

fixed /std/object/names.c so that add_adjective will set a primary_adjective if one does not already exisdt.

Thu Sep 7 11:08:32 2000: Tigran

added the verbs ascend and descend

Thu Sep 7 19:28:41 2000: Tigran

fixed DOC_D to check for existing directories before creating new ones.

Thu Sep 7 20:14:33 2000: Tigran

fixed M_READABLE at Loriel's suggestion just over a year ago (Line 60, in set_text())

Fri Sep 8 14:36:34 2000: Loriel

amended /std/adversary/wield/multiple.c, adding a check for empty slots into query_weapon() as suggested by Designa.

Sat Sep 9 10:38:52 2000: Loriel

Sun Sep 10 13:10:59 2000: Iizuka

added LIMB_ATTACKING to /include/limbs.h and added query_attacking_limbs() to /std/adversary/health/limbs.c.

Sun Sep 10 13:18:19 2000: Iizuka

updated /obj/admtool/daemons/body.c with respect to attacking limbs.

Mon Sep 11 15:06:47 2000: Loriel

added is_attacking_limb() into /std/adversary/health/limbs.c.

Mon Sep 11 20:17:50 2000: Loriel

changed STR to STRINGIZE in /std/classes/event_info.c to comply with the correct usage enforced in newer drivers (v22.2b5 onwards).

Tue Sep 12 19:26:41 2000: Loriel

improved /obj/admtool/daemons/body.c, fixing the description of the 'r' option (remove limb) to distinguish it from 'R' (remove body), and added attacking to the valid limb types referred to in line 93 in set_limb_flags().

Tue Sep 12 19:27:25 2000: Loriel

added a check for valid body type into add_limb_to_body() in BODY_D (/daemons/body_d.c).

Fri Sep 15 16:41:10 2000: Loriel

amended "/bulders/" to "/wiz/" in DOC_D (/daemons/doc_d.c). Thanks to Marroc for spotting it.

Sun Sep 17 01:02:37 2000: Loriel

improved the messaging in do_diagnose_liv() in /cmds/verbs/diagnose.c, to avoid others in the room seeing full details - problem reported by Krant.

Mon Sep 18 19:37:35 2000: Loriel

fixed the typo in line 90 of NON_ROOM (/std/non_room.c) pointed out by Krant : ..RESET^.. -> ..RESET%%^..

Sat Sep 23 19:59:54 2000: Loriel

updated /domains/std/bank_accountant.c with respect to the last two changelogs.

Fri Sep 29 11:08:40 2000: Iizuka

installed /std/accountant.c. This solves the LPscript problem reported by Marroc. This assumes adversary, so if you want one from living either modify this or make a similar object using living instead.

Sat Sep 30 16:25:35 2000: Loriel

fixed follow_hook() in M_FOLLOW (/std/modules/m_follow.c) to improve following, including support for function pointers and better checking.

Sun Oct 1 11:21:01 2000: Iizuka

removed add_save() from /std/armor.c and moved it to /std/modules/m_wearable.c, as Marroc suggested. m_wearable now has a mudlib_setup().

Wed Oct 11 04:25:24 2000: Deathblade

fixed a bug! whee! the LPSCRIPT_D / ACCOUNTANT thing. solution was posted by Marroc a couple weeks ago to lima.bugs. It prevented a clean login for me on a fresh mud reboot... had to be fixed :-)

Fri Oct 13 05:41:58 2000: Deathblade

put /daemons/imud/channel.c back to its original pre-bogus state. Minus three cool points to whoever borked it up. Lima can now speak on I3 channels.

Fri Oct 13 06:01:20 2000: Deathblade

added a comment to imud_d.c about us-1.i3.intermud.org being the router address. would be nice if somebody could change imud_d.c to use a hostname rather than a bare IP

Fri Oct 13 21:40:59 2000: Loriel

moved "help release" from /help/wizard/ to /help/player/ so visitors can see it without being auto-wizzed.

Sat Oct 14 16:16:44 2000: Loriel

amended get_size() to query_size() in /domains/std/rooms/beach/Outside_Cave.c. Thanks to Marroc for pointing it out.

Mon Oct 16 07:01:30 2000: Deathblade

added a comment about router_list to imud_d.c to inform newless clubies that it really *is* intended to be saved. (*cough kesac* ahem)

Tue Oct 17 05:38:36 2000: Deathblade

updated USAGE. christ was that an old email address.

Fri Oct 20 18:13:56 2000: Loriel

further amended /cmds/verbs/go.c, adding a can_go_wrd_obj() returning "You can't do that!\n"

Sat Dec 23 15:55:44 2000: Loriel

Changes since Lima 1.0b2

Tue Feb 27 09:48:59 2001: Loriel

Tue Feb 27 16:35:53 2001: Loriel

changed get_lowest_unread_id(current_group) to current_id in menu_select_change_header() in NEWSREADER (/obj/mudlib/newsreader.c) as suggested by Marroc.

fixed /domains/std/object/dock_wall.c to use do_close instead of close in its trigger() function.

Wed Mar 7 17:50:46 2001: Loriel

Sat Mar 10 10:28:46 2001: Loriel

fixed it so that remote tells from others show up in your tell history.

Tue Apr 10 02:53:36 2001: Marroc

created newsgroup lima.bugs.fixed, for bugreps that are supposedly fixed, so that they do not clutter the lima.bugs group.

made it so that when I3 reports an error it tells you the mud name that sent the error.

Mon Apr 16 19:39:35 2001: Tigran

tweaked HTTP_D so that it parses cgi a bit better with arguments (? vs ?=)

Tue Apr 17 05:51:51 2001: Loriel

amended make_unique_objects_if_needed() in CONTAINER (/std/container.c), adding a clonep() filter and adjusting the number by 1, which should ensure correct number of unique clones created on initial cloning.

Tue Apr 17 06:07:43 2001: Loriel

made fixes to M_FOLLOW (/std/modules/m_follow.c), changing autodoc name of set_follow_search() from set_follow_string, adding a did_move() into do_follow_obj() and improving arrive_hook().

Tue Apr 24 00:38:03 2001: Marroc

amended ADVERSARY (/std/adversary.c), ARMOR (/std/armor.c), CONTAINER (/std/container.c), FLAME (/std/flame.c), FOLLOWING_MONSTER (/std/following_monster.c), FOOD (/std/food.c), KEY (/std/key.c), PAPER (/std/paper.c), SIGN (/std/sign.c), TORCH (/std/torch.c), WANDERING_MONSTER (/std/wandering_monster.c) and WEAPON (/std/weapon.c) -- Eliminating calls to ::lpscript_attributes() in inherited modules etc, as they are redundant; LPSCRIPT_D digs through all the inherits by itself.

Thu May 10 14:19:49 2001: Marroc

updated M_SIBLING (/std/modules/m_sibling.c) to use a function instead of a string to refer to the sibling room path, removing the need for initialisation through on_clone().

Thu May 10 14:20:07 2001: Marroc

updated DOOR (/std/door.c) to reflect the changes in M_SIBLING.

Fri May 11 04:03:02 2001: Loriel

added a 'destruct(ob)' into add_sell() in M_VENDOR (/std/modules/m_vendor.c) to remove items which are cloned as part of the sales process but neither used nor removed properly.

Fri May 11 05:56:38 2001: Marroc

added the concept of a 'through' object in the movement system, that specifies the object through which you enter a room. This enables enter/leave msgs to make more sense, especially when one room has a "northern door" that you walk through, entering the next room through it's "southern door". Complex exit objects automatically set the 'through' object if they can find a sibling at the destination. Modified CLASS_MOVE (/std/classes/move.c), M_COMPLEX_EXIT (/std/modules/m_complex_exit.c) and M_SMARTMOVE (/std/modules/m_smartmove.c).

Fri May 11 06:09:32 2001: Marroc

updated SECRET_DOOR (/std/secret_door.c), replacing call to get_default_exit() with query_default_error() so that it'll return the proper error message if trying to walk through the door without opening it (same message as if trying to walk in an invalid direction).

Fri May 11 06:11:08 2001: Marroc

modified M_OPENABLE (/std/modules/m_openable.c), commenting out the code that changes adjectives of the object depending on open/closed state, as the new adjective seems to become primary, interfering with what you set in the object.

Fri May 11 07:52:59 2001: Marroc

added punctiation and a newline to the return message of door_check() in DOOR (/std/door.c)

Fri May 11 08:12:09 2001: Marroc

modified /std/object/names.c, moving initialisation of primary_adj to resync(), where init. of primary_id is. Also modified set_id() and set_adj() to ensure the new ids/adjs end up in the beginning of the id/adj arrays, so that primary_id/adj resync properly.

Sun May 13 16:19:06 2001: Marroc

amended M_COMPLEX_EXIT (/std/modules/m_complex_exit.c), removing call to error() in complex_exit_direct_verb_rule() when rule format is unexpected. It now returns 0 now, as would seem more proper when the check cannot handle the rule.

Sun May 13 16:47:50 2001: Loriel

fixed part of the 'Pirate Quest', changing "player_left" to "person_left" in on_clone() in /domains/std/objects/ocean.c, and changing the matching in award_points() to if(evaluate(direction) == "the ocean") in the same file, and set the granting object to ocean instead of room.

Changes since Lima 1.0b3

Wed May 30 12:59:16 2001: Marroc

added a lima_version() sefun to /secure/simul_efun/misc.c, returning a version string like "Lima 1.0b3".

Thu May 31 08:22:29 2001: Loriel

amended action_movement() in M_ACTIONS allow combination of wandering and set_actions to work better.

Fri Jun 1 10:56:40 2001: Loriel

fixed show_money() in M_ACCOUNTANT (/std/modules/accountant.c) which had lost the MONEY_D->currency_to_string() conversion (approx line 100). Thanks to Pteppic@Beyond the Flame for spotting it.

Sat Jun 9 13:13:34 2001: Loriel

added a filter for userp() to listeners in rcv_channel_who_req() in /daemons/imud/channel.c, which was failing as it tried to use listeners->query_body()->query_name() with /daemons/chanlog_d.c included in listeners.

Sat Jun 9 13:39:00 2001: Loriel

amended mudname to canon_mudname(mudname) in remote_listeners() in /daemons/imud_d/channel.c.

Thu Jun 14 13:56:15 2001: Loriel

fixed /domains/std/lima/workroom_ob.c, converting to use class for the argument in move_to() call. Thanks to Seven for reporting it.

Sun Jun 17 13:29:52 2001: Loriel

amended /cmds/wiz/clean.c so it excludes add_items (simple_obs).

Tue Jun 19 19:27:09 2001: Marroc

amended LPSCRIPT_D (/secure/daemons/lpscript_d.c), making handle_string() split long strings to multiple lines, thereby avoiding errors from the driver.

Wed Jun 20 09:04:34 2001: Marroc

commented the set_enter_msg() line of /domains/std/Car_Wash.c as it was causing trouble. Needs more attention.

Wed Jun 20 09:09:00 2001: Marroc

modified can_go_str() and do_go_str() of /cmds/verbs/go.c to enable moving around with vehicles.

Wed Jun 20 09:12:10 2001: Marroc

switched departure and arrival msgs of /domains/std/camaro.c as they seemed to be in the wrong order, and generated errors.

Wed Jun 20 10:10:54 2001: Marroc

modified complex_exit_do_verb_rule() of M_COMPLEX_EXIT (/std/modules/m_complex/exit.c) to allow for "WRD" rule, making "get out" etc possible.

Wed Jun 20 10:11:26 2001: Marroc

added "get WRD" rule to /cmds/verbs/get.c, so that you can "get out" of vehicles.

Wed Jun 20 11:42:40 2001: Marroc

updated M_SMARTMOVE (/std/modules/m_smartmove.c) to actually use data->who instead of this_body() for messaging; this_object() is also conceivable, but gives less options.

Wed Jun 20 11:44:00 2001: Marroc

updated M_EXIT (/std/modules/m_exit.c) to correctly set exit->who both for moving with vehicle and without.

Wed Jun 20 11:50:40 2001: Marroc

amended /domains/std/Example_Room1.c, changing can_go_east() to can_go_str(string dir) and checking that dir is "east".

Wed Jun 27 03:38:28 2001: Loriel

added the if(!weapon) check back into chance_to_hit() in /std/adversary/formula/simple.c.

Mon Jul 2 03:27:24 2001: Smack

changed /std/body/title.c to use query_name() instead of query_userid() to better reflect chosen names.. could represent a security hole on muds that care

Mon Jul 2 14:24:52 2001: Loriel

amended FTP_D (/secure/daemons/ftp_d.c) adding functions query_passives(), query_sessions() and query_dataports(), and amending FTP_CMD_pasv() to close previous passive pipe (if any) and amending FTP_CMD_quit() to close passive pipe (if any) and remove the entry from the passives mapping.

Tue Jul 17 07:54:43 2001: Marroc

amended can_go_str() in /domains/std/Example_Room1.c, having it call ::can_go_str() instead of just returning 1 so as to ensure proper checks are performed.

Sun Jul 29 21:15:23 2001: Loriel

amended FTP_D (/secure/daemons/ftp_d.c) to restrict the range of ports used in passive mode - currently set to 4000 - 4100, but configurable as MIN_PORT and MAX_PORT.

Mon Sep 3 22:50:07 2001: Loriel

fixed chance_to_hit() in /std/adversary/formula/stats.c by changing the check from if(!weapon) to if(!weapon || weapon == this_object())

Sun Sep 23 02:40:29 2001: Loriel

applied Kesac's proposed fixes to close a loophole which allows players to read unrestricted files into the editor (eg when mailing) by using "1r ". Files amended : /trans/obj/ed_session.c and /trans/obj/edit_ob.c.

Sun Nov 18 21:26:06 2001: Loriel

amended /include/config to define ANON_CAN_PUT, so non-wizards have limited ablility to upload - hence can put contributions into /open etc.

Wed Dec 19 05:15:40 2001: Loriel

amended /include/driver/runtime.h, changing the define of BASE_CONFIG_INT from (BASE_CONFIG_STR + 14) to (BASE_CONFIG_STR + 15). Thanks to Dunedain for spotting it.

Wed Dec 19 05:33:12 2001: Dunedain

added a check in /cmds/player/random2.c to ensure that no mappings exceeded __MAX_MAPPING_SIZE__. It should no longer error on first update.

Fri Jan 4 22:46:31 2002: Loriel

amended inv_list() in /secure/simul_efun/objcalls.c to filter out null objects instead of erroring.

Thu Feb 14 09:19:22 2002: Loriel

amended clean_up() in OBJ (/std/object.c) to use children() to check whether the file is inherited (and should not be cleaned up yet) instead of the 'instances' parameter passed, which appears to be inaccurate.

Sun Feb 17 16:57:38 2002: Loriel

amended show_objects() in /std/rooms/roomdesc.c to correctly show players "(outside the...)" description in appropriate cases.

Thu Feb 21 12:35:50 2002: Loriel

updated the greeter in /domains/std/ to reflect current info for where to get the lib (ie 'help release') and where to report MudOS bugs.

Thu Feb 28 11:51:04 2002: Marroc

fixed problem in parse_arg() of CMD_D (/secure/daemons/cmd_d.c) causing it not to parse OBFILE arguments correctly if they indirectly refer to LPSCRIPT objects (ie, "update here" would fail in an LPSCRIPT room). It seems that base_name() for an LPSCRIPT object returns the full filename, including ".scr".

Thu Feb 28 12:02:27 2002: Loriel

added set_combat_message() to M_DAMAGE_SOURCE (/std/modules/m_damage_source.c) to allow the setting of a single combat message, replacing the existing one(s).

Sun Mar 3 11:59:44 2002: Marroc

added TaskTool, a useful tool for keeping track of development tasks etc, and allows you to mark them as completed. It's a tree structure, so you can add sub-tasks for every task, and completing a task is prohibited until all sub-tasks are completed. Installed TASK_D (/daemons/task_d.h), /obj/tasktool/* and /cmds/wiz/tasktool.c. Modified /include/daemons.h, /include/commands.h and /include/mudlib.h. Try it out :)

Wed Mar 6 05:48:37 2002: Loriel

fixed help on /secure/simul_efun/misc::is_normal_direction(), which had a typo in the FUNCTION token and for which the help comments appear to have been misposted from the call_trace function.

Sat Mar 16 02:53:31 2002: Loriel

fixed wrong tokens in the combat_sword dam3 message in MESSAGES_D (/daemons/messages_d.c).

Sat Mar 16 18:27:51 2002: Loriel

amended /cmds/player/tell.c to use "$N " + arg for intermud tell/emotes, as suggested by Andrew.

Mon Mar 18 15:35:15 2002: Loriel

amended /secure/user/login.c to use the lima_version() sefun in the message in login_handle_logon().

Sun Apr 7 13:23:37 2002: Loriel

amended message for "stand" method in FURNITURE (/std/furniture.c) to $vstand (from $vstands). Thanks to Bunny for spotting it.

Fri Apr 19 14:48:03 2002: Loriel

added missing support for attack_speed into /std/adversary/formula/stats.c.

Sun May 5 23:54:50 2002: Loriel

Mon May 6 00:41:11 2002: Loriel

amended MORE_OB (/trans/obj/more_ob.c) to handle "large" files, by adding a "number of lines" parameter to read_file().

Tue May 7 10:47:17 2002: Loriel

changed /std/adversary/armor/complex_slots.c, adding a reset_slots() function to set bodyslots to the default_slots mapping, simplifying the adding of new body slots to existing players.

Fri May 17 11:59:22 2002: Loriel

fixed /domains/std/Car_Wash.c so the set_enter_msg() is on the right exit (west), and the room now loads.

Mon May 20 04:20:43 2002: Loriel

added some usage help to the colours command (/cmds/player/colours.c)

Mon Jun 3 03:44:54 2002: Loriel

amended 'look' to use exit descriptions in M_EXIT for 'look '

Wed Jun 5 14:12:18 2002: Loriel

fixed query_exit_description() in M_EXIT (/std/modules/m_exit.c) to handle invalid directions without erroring.

Sat Jun 15 11:21:53 2002: Loriel

fixed main() in /WWW/cgi/who.c to strip the leading "=" to find individual players, instead of returning "No such player".

Thu Jun 27 01:18:47 2002: Loriel

amended move() in /std/object/move.c to use default relation of dest where none is specified (otherwise give_new_obj() will break).

Thu Jun 27 01:21:14 2002: Loriel

updated /domains/std/stone.c to the relation-based container system, adding the relation "in", making it the default relation, and adding it to set_hide_contents() in receive_object(). Additionally changed the condition in receive_object() to "if(target->id("sword"))".

Sun Jun 30 14:08:19 2002: Loriel

fixed the typo 'loccation' in /help/wizard/bin/start.

Sun Aug 18 18:41:46 2002: Loriel

added a file size check to /trans/cmds/grep.c, similar to /trans/cmds/ed.c, and moved the actual value to /include/config.h - MAXFILESIZE, currently set to 1000000.

Fri Aug 23 03:29:58 2002: Loriel

changed /obj/admtool/daemons/body.c::add_limb() to check sizeof(BODY_D->get_body()) instead of checking for 0.

Sat Aug 24 17:01:26 2002: Loriel

fixed problems in /domains/std/2.4.5/giant_conf.scr arising from non-existent attributes (armor_class and proper_name) and from the switching of weapon and sword.

Sat Aug 24 20:43:36 2002: Loriel

added relations and default_relation to lpscript_attributes() in CONTAINER (/std/container.c).

Sat Aug 24 20:51:30 2002: Loriel

fixed /domains/std/2.4.5/sea_bottom, adding relations and default_relation to the octopus, and correcting the setting of objects in it, so it clones 1 chest containing random(500) gold, rather than random(500) chests (empty).

Sat Aug 24 20:51:58 2002: Loriel

fixed /domains/std/2.4.5/obj/chest, adding relations and default_relation and capacity.

Sat Aug 24 22:07:29 2002: Loriel

fixed /domains/std/2.4.5/forest2.scr, which used "money=500" instead of "objects=/std/money(1,500,"gold"), and also changed proper_name to primary_id.

Sun Aug 25 00:13:33 2002: Loriel

changed this_body() to this_object() within the 'response' section of handle_block() in LPSCRIPT_D (/daemons/secure/lpscript_d.c), namely the part handling line[0] == "!" around line 500.

Sun Aug 25 00:17:57 2002: Loriel

made various fixes to the beggar in /domains/std/2.4.5/yard, including inheriting M_ACTIONS by setting is=monster,actor, moving the "periodic" section from the room to the beggar, making those actions consistent (ie !says blah etc), and removing the query_money check in the trigger as it's no longer valid, and the money system doesn't easily support the intention of checking how much he has.

Sun Aug 25 01:09:24 2002: Loriel

added a simple rope into /domains/std/2.4.5/big_tree - in place of the missing /domains/std/2.4.5/obj/rope (which would ideally handle tie and untie, if those verbs existed).

Sun Aug 25 03:24:46 2002: Loriel

changed /domains/std/2.4.5/shop to use the standard M_VENDOR shop system, instead of the old (non-functional) add_actions, and also removed surplus related (non-functional) code from /domains/std/2.4.5/store and /domains/std/2.4.5/storage.

Mon Aug 26 00:26:59 2002: Loriel

added support in LPSCRIPT_D (/secure/daemons/lpscript_d.c) for the following : "hidden_door", "key", "block" (M_BLOCKEXITS), "outdoor", "aggressive" (AGGRESSIVE_MONSTER), "wielded" and "worn".

Mon Aug 26 00:27:24 2002: Loriel

There are about 6 left with bugs to remove, and many more where the functionality is poor.

Mon Aug 26 22:35:06 2002: Loriel

extended handle_action() in LPSCRIPT_D (/secure/daemons/lpscript_d.c) to use this_object() for $o in messaging.

Mon Aug 26 22:37:47 2002: Loriel

added the verbs tie and untie, and extended the verb listen to cover 'listen to obj with obj' - directory /cmds/verbs/.

Mon Aug 26 22:39:08 2002: Loriel

added picture.scr to the directory /domains/lpscript/, and fixed the following files there : camera.scr, large_oak_door.scr and wizroom.scr.

Tue Aug 27 22:55:10 2002: Loriel

amended compile_object() in /secure/master.c to add the .scr suffix to lpscript files where appropriate if the name is quoted without it.

Wed Aug 28 13:12:37 2002: Loriel

add support in LPSCRIPT_D (/secure/daemons/lpscript_d.c) for drinkable (M_DRINKABLE) and regex (M_REGEX) and amended handle_wield() and handle_worn() to allow random choice using one_object().

Thu Aug 29 17:43:26 2002: Loriel

fixed a problem in /WWW/cgi/autodoc.c::main() where leading "=" was not being stripped before parsing the arg, and added a function html() to convert \n to
for better display.

Fri Aug 30 01:05:13 2002: Loriel

amended main() in /WWW/cgi/who.c to handle mixed data, using 'name' element from mapping, to strip leading '=' where appropriate, and strip colour tokens from titles. Also amended /WWW/fingeruser.html to use post instead of get.

Sat Aug 31 23:24:42 2002: Loriel

Sun Sep 1 21:14:44 2002: Loriel

Fri Oct 4 13:29:49 2002: Loriel

fixed a bug in SOCKET (/obj/secure/socket.c) which generated errors when handling large files (eg jpgs) : 'write_queue = ({ evaluate(write_func, this_object()) });' should be 'evaluate(write_func, this_object());' in write_callback().

Mon Nov 11 09:27:16 2002: Loriel

amended /cmds/player/semote.c to support "LIV LIV" cases, adding file semote2.c to return appropriate names for second argument.

Sun Dec 1 10:23:16 2002: Loriel
