This is to announce that the 1.0.3 code has been released.

This release contains a metric tonne of typo fixes.
It also contains all of the accumulated bugfixes which had ben posted and made to 1.0.2.

Additionally it contains one fairly major change (ADMIN SELECTABLE).   Please note: IF YOU DON'T ENABLE THIS CHANGE IT WON"T AFFECT YOU (pardon the caps, but I want to make sure you realize that this is optional).  This is the 'permanent versus temporary hitpoint change'.  BY DEFAULT all modules remain granting permanent HP.  ALL modules which grant max hitpoints now have a game setting which will enable you to make those hitpoints temporary.   In addition there is a module called 'globalhp.php'.  What this module does is three-fold.  One, it allows you to globally override all of the other modules and make all hitpoints temporary.  Second, it allows you to make hitpoints from any module which does NOT have an individual switch either permanent or temporary as a global setting.  Lastly, it provides a SUPER-USER option to allow you to reset hitpoints based on the new rules.  IF you reset hitpoints, ALL players will a) lose their tynan buffs b) have their dragonpoints reset (and be forced to respend them at the next new day) and c) force all players to have an immediate newday.   I will *not* give user/technical support on this set of modules aside from what I'm providing here.  Basically, these are a 'use at your own risk set of modules'.  While both Dragoncat and Central have been running this code, it is code which only really runs once (the reset) and thus, there COULD be latent bugs in it.  Caveat Admin!  Hitpoints which would not be permanent under the new rules (as defined by the module settings/globalhp settins) will be reimbursed to players as Gems at 2 gems per hitpoints (the cost of the HP potions at Cedrik).  This means that if you do this, you WILL have a very large influx of gems into your game!  Be prepared.

Remeber, by default, your game will continue to operate as it has previously. You will continue to have permanent hitpoints, etc.  If this is what you want, you don't need to change *anything*.

Another new feature, related to but seperate from, this last one is that the Heidi shop can now be configured to allow players to spend gems to reset their DK points at which point they can respend their DK points.

The last new feature is PVP opt-out!  yes, you heard it correctly.  Players can (if you install the pvpimmunity module) opt out from PvP as long as they have not already taken any action during the current DK which uses PVP. (IE, if they attacked another player, OR if they used the blue candles at Heidi, they are stuck).  Existing players when the module is installed will be locked into PvP for their current DK, but will be able to opt out after their next DK.  NEW players may opt out up until the point they do something related to PvP.  On ce a player opts out they are removed from PVP and are prevented from opting back in until their next DK.  Once you have chosen a setting it will remain in effect (so if you opt out you stay opted out) but you are allowed to change that selection once per DK.  -- I STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU INSTALL THIS ON A TEST SERVER FIRST AND PLAY WITH IT UNTIL YOU UNDERSTAND HOW IT WORKS --  While a player is opted out of PvP they will not be able to even see the Slay Others link, nor will they be able to be attacked by any other player.  They will also not be able to utilize heidi to exchange PvP for forest fights.   NOTE - IF THERE ARE OTHER MODULES WHICH USE PVP THEY ARE NOT EFFECTED AND WILL NEED TO BE MODIFIED TO BRING THEM IN LINE -- ONLY CORE MODULES HAVE BEEN UPDATED.

Enjoy!

Try removing all of the files in the modules folder, that you are uploaded/have uploaded.

This should prevent any stopping. Besides, you can upload and install them all later.

i have a 1.0.2  can i upgrade whith my players playing?

it fixed the bugs, or i will need to translate  again?

what i need to do to upgrade?

What parts of the core did you have to modify!?  

Unfortunately there isn't much I can do to help you make this easier for Polish translation :/

As for changes, there were some fairly large bugfixes in the code as well. Obviously all of the fixes that were posted here about 1.0.2, but additional ones to support the things like the global hitpoints feature, etc.

There are also some general code rearranging for cleanliness, some refactoring, etc.

If there was any way you could, I would strongly urge you to upgrade to 1.0.3, otherwise you'll be stuck in an incompatible setup if you try to use newer modules and such (if they make use of any of the new hooks or features, etc).

I have a question, somthing I dont understand about the HP thing.

If you choose to reset HP, will they lose thier att/def as well?

It says they get thier DK Points back to spend, does this take away all advancements, and let them respend thier points, or just take away thier HP, but still give them thier points back to re-spend?

Is the cyrilic font bug fixed ( if it was a bug ). To translate in polish is much easyer that in some language that uses cyrilic fonts. You have just to replace the english text with polish , but in my case i have to enable in some way cyrilic so i can BEGIN to translate it...otherwise it shows unreadable symbols. Can you help me on this one ? I have readed posts and threats in some forums , but i can`t sill get it how to make it work....

I have done nothing to the code related to this.  Honestly, it's not a priority for me since I don't speak any language which uses cyrillic, nor do I have my web server or database hooked up with UTF8 support or any number of other things.  Basically the long and short is that supporting this requires having support for it in more places other than just logd and you're pretty much on your own there.
