  @Arkandel said in New moderator.: @Coin said in New moderator.: @Arkandel would never make me a mod because putting up a united front is too much like agreeing with me and he experiences physical pain when that happens. I just experienced PTSD at the very thought. Pre-Traumatic Stress Disorder, you wussy Canuk?

  I've played characters in non-sex based games that were youthful appearing or that were actually around sixteen. They had been made that way so that they could grow up into their lives and adult personalities IG to make more of an organic backstory. Most of the time this went just fine, but every once in a while you have players that make the entire experience uncomfortable. I've found that it's better to not play those characters, no matter what type of game it is or your own intentions - they draw the wrong attention from people that don't have the same intentions. Aside - I am still boggling over someone flying up to me on Flyff years ago, asking me to be their 'owner' and to tell them naughty things for them to do to that would 'please' me. They chased me around a hunting ground on my broom until I logged off. That is NOTHING compared to some MU* stories I've got.

  @ZombieGenesis It's on the code parent, which has those references though. The errors seem to be around the statset stuff as that's where the bugs seem to be happening whenever I do the think testing.

  @SquirrelTalk You're welcome. It is always a little rough at the beginning when trying to figure out which tool does what. python and pip: this is vaguely equivalent to PennMUSH's hardcode. virtualenv: this is like a workbench where you keep specific tools for building Evennia birdhouses git: this is sort of the download utility to get everything else

  Been a while since the last release, but for good reason: this update is huge. 4.00.285: Total Recall Edition! Spawns, input windows, and input history now have their layouts and content restored per character (and on exit/reopen) Bonus: If there's a crash, the content will be restored up to the moment of the crash! Changed the welcome text into a popup window, since it doesn't fit anywhere in the restored content Added a tooltip for the window tabs, so if they're truncated it's still possible to see the full name, unread count, etc. Added 'Convert spaces to %B' function Added '/autolog' to restart any stopped server/character autolog Added '/reconnect' to reconnect to all disconnected tabs in every window Added 'File->Close Window' to close a single window Changed 'File->Exit' to close all windows (so that relaunching will then restore all windows vs just the last one closed) Added '/exit' to close all windows and their tabs (same as File->Exit) Added %server% and %character% variable substitution for all log filenames Added right click menu for URLs (open/copy) Added support for Pueblo tags Added Tab number display when Alt is pressed (for easy Alt+# switching) Changed it so that the config.txt file is locked on open, so you can't open two copies that try to write to the same file accidentally Changed '/wall ' to act like it was directly typed in every connected world, so aliases & commands all work Changed input history color to be the window color, not the inaccessible local echo color Changed TCP_NODELAY to be on by default since BeipMU already internally coalesces sent data into single blocks optimally Fixed minor annoyance where clicking on a spawn window in the background wouldn't bring it's main window to the front Fixed a crash when trying to connect with SSL and the port isn't the SSL one (basically when SSL fails to negotiate) Improved tooltips so that they don't go off the right or bottom edges of the working area of the monitor they appear on That first change is the really massive one and it's great. Not only does it remember your layout now, but you can also copy a layout from one character and paste it to another, and as long as you're using the same names for the spawns you're triggering you can easily make them match up! If you're using the version from the Windows Store it should update itself next time you restart, and from then on, every time you reopen the program it'll remember your layouts and show the last content from your worlds (unless you tell it not to, which you can). If you're not, you can get the new version here, but please consider using the Store version because it sends the dev reports if something goes wrong (and you've opted into the extended Windows telemetry), which helps him find rare bugs, and it also gives him a better idea of how many people are actually using it, which is motivating. And everyone loves a motivated dev!

  Not sure what's up with this, but I typed a response in the Serenity thread and posted it, but on my first attempt, rather than the new post, it copied my only other post in the thread and posted that. Deleting the duplicate and trying again worked.

  Just to add to this, I love the idea but the time requirements are just not quite possible for me. On certain days I'd not be able to post at all in fact. But I love the idea in theory!
