I am pleased to release version 3.85 of MUSHclient. See the release notes for more details.
Improvements
- Fixed a bug where lines that were omitted from output would have caused a memory leak.
- Added more scripting functionality for the new spell checker.
- Added some more script functions as requested in the forum.
- The lists of triggers, aliases, timers, and variables in the world configuration dialog now show a count of the number of items in each list.
- MUSHclient should now remember the position of the main window, even if you use multiple monitors.
- Removed support for loading world files created prior to version 3.21.
Warning about Lua 5.1 upgrade
MUSHclient version 3.80 upgraded the Lua script engine from Lua 5.0.2 to 5.1.1. If you are upgrading to this version from an earlier version than 3.80, you should read Version 3.80 released - with Lua 5.1 script engine - this post has recommendations about what is required if you use Lua scripting or Lua plugins.
Warning about upgrading from versions prior to 3.21
MUSHclient version 3.85 (onwards) no longer reads the old "binary" world files produced by versions prior to 3.21. For more information about this please read the forum post Version 3.85 no longer supports world files created prior to version 3.21 - this post has recommendations about how to upgrade your world files if you are upgrading from a version earlier than 3.21.
Note that version 3.21 was released about 5 years ago, so people who have recently installed MUSHclient should not have any problems.
