I don't know if it's something I've done or haven't done but as I look through my MUSHclient log files, I notice before every script note (world.note), a massive spam of the entire world output buffer is concatenated onto one line. Nothing else seems to produce this bug.

This could be related to the single newline/carrage return that is sent when some or all scripts are used. I've been trying desperately to create a custom .afk command on a certain talker. One that would store my AFK reason as a variable and repeat the AFK command after performing an anti-idle task. My only problem is the AFK command sent from the script is immediatley followed by a single empty line, which cancels the AFK, sometimes sending me into a loop.

If you'd like more details, you can contact me at:

At the time of posting I was using 3.12. I had downloaded 3.15 and was scrolling through the changes between versions looking for certain words. I made the post while upgrading, figuring it would be the same as before, since I hadn't found what I was looking for in the changes.

It looks like the notes in logs is fixed. I was just looking through my log files and I haven't seen any sign of the massive buffer spam. But the other problem I described about the single newline being sent is still occuring. I created a new AFK script and stopped the looping, but there's still a single newline/carrage return sent from somewhere.

There was a problem in earlier versions that under some circumstances it would process the entire output buffer, leading to the first bug you mention.

As for the extra line problem, turning on packet debug (see Edit menu), I see this:

I type:



/world.send "afk"



Sent  packet: 5 (5 bytes)



afk..              61 66 6b 0d 0a

It is definitely only sending one line in the script. Probably what is happening that a newline has crept into the trigger output as well, thus you are getting a second newline. Check carefully in your trigger output that it is either sending nothing at all, or if the AFK is in the trigger output, AFK with no extra newlines.

Better email me the world file and tell me what you are typing to cause the problem.
