It has come to my attention, that the current release scripts.dll 2.0 is broken in some ways. Setting the mine limit for windows crashes the fds.
We are about to release a new SSCP1 version which included a scripts 2.0 based SSAOW version which also includes this mine limit setting feature. A new version of brenbot (1.41) makes use of this, and sets the minelimit automatically - obviously, on windows it crashes. works fine on linux.
This is rather annoying for windows server admins, because they cannot use a feature that was promised for scripts.dll 2.0 - instead, their server crashes each time they try it.
Confronting jonwil this this issue, he confirmed that it is actually not working. However, he says he wants to fix it for an upcoming scripts.dll 2.1, which is still far away. His reasons for delaying it that it "would probably take too much time". SSCP1 1.3 is coming out this weekend.
Crimson and me think that this is rather unsetteling. This feature has been promised and brenbot makes full use of it. Bugs, no matter where should be fixed.
Also, the ip address fix for Linux servers is broken in scripts.dll 2.0 - which makes 2 fixable bugs for a scripts.dll 2.0.1
Vote yes, if you think that jonwil should fix bugs, instead of ignoring them and let users suffer the consequences
Win32 Server Admins, post how you feel about that.

If he has the time to just fix those 2 things and make a scripts 2.01 then that would be fine....then continue on with scripts 2.1
But like he said "would probably take too much time"...so im not sure if it's feasible.

From what I understand, it wouldn't take a day long effort. Just asking that everyone should get what they orginally were promised from scripts.dll 2.0.

a proper fix for the mine limit issue (that was gauranteed not to break anything else) would take a fair bit of time to code.

Thanks v00d00 I would rather have the current stuff with less bugs than to get new stuff with even more bugs. Thanks for the fix ! All you guys at BHS thanks for all the great updates as of late.

The stupid Aaron from IPS? The same IPS that promised Invision Board would always be free?
|
nope that is not me lol you mean AaronlIPS. I run IPB Helpers not IPS. And for the record they never said it would always be free.

Yes 2.0 was free then 2.0.1 and above went paid. I do not want to sit and debate about if IPB was going to be free or not. This is a Renegade forum any updates on this stuff mac posted about?

Theres no sense in countinuing with 2.1 if 2.0 has bugs. Better to have a solid foundation IMO...
