TASClient features request request

[bibim]

Nice job with the autohost interface.

A few remarks/suggestions:

• commands could be sent in private to the AutoHost instead of battle lobby
• the "!list all" command (in "Autohost information") doesn't exist. Actually "all" is just an optional argument for "!list settings", "!list hSettings" and "!list bSettings". For example "!list bSettings" lists all modifiable battle settings, and "!list bSettings all" lists all battle settings, not only the modifiable ones.
• it would be nice if the "Game options" and "Mod options" pannels were active when autohost interface is enabled (maybe with a special color to distinguish from normal hosting mode ?). So that when you change a value in the GUI the corresponding "!bSet" command is called. (it's always the same syntax: "!bSet <modOptionNameFromUnitsync> <newValue>").
• next Spads release will support optionnal IRC colors in reponses sent in private to users (according to the "ircColors" preference of each user). This is usefull to make output of some commands clearer, like this !help output in SpringLobby for example. It would be nice to have this in TASClient too.

More a bug report than a feature request, but:

Prevent TASClient from displaying an ugly error message then remain somewhat frozen when I forgot to select "mod" in the dropdown menu before adding a filter. I mean, even if I made an error by hastily clicking the (->) button, the punishment of freezing TASClient is too hard.

What's the best place to get the latest TASClient compile since http://tasclient.licho.eu/TASClientLatest.7z seems to be gone?

when u hover over a server with really much player, u couldnt see all names, please improve it somehow. and it should be possible to contact one of those players easily (not by searching them in the playerlist and then contact them, there should be a fatser way)

hmmmm trademark. Consider reading this post:

Trademark: update to latest, that no longer crashes on exit.

If you still dont get it, go to Help/Links in your lobby and click check for latest version.

[TradeMark]

yeah i downloaded that too, same crash...

[Masure]

Including beta versions ?

[TradeMark]

dude... how fucking many versions i need to download to remove this bug

[Beherith]

Trade, just one, but its called springlobby.

[TradeMark]

yeah i will probably start using it when the layout is same as tasclient

when somebody is afk (these 2 Zs) and hes ingame, they should be red, if hes in a battleroom they should be yellow

[lurker]

Time for a protocol lesson. You have two pieces of info.
1. You know if they are in a battle lobby.
2. You know what they told the server with the MYSTATUS command. This status is either normal, waiting for a battle to start, ingame, or AFK.


It is impossible to know if they are ingame or not if their status says 'AFK'.

If tasclient is reporting AFK when you don't think it should, this is the place. But there is no way to change just the display in one lobby, you have to change the reporting in any and all lobbies that you disagree with.

[TradeMark]

hmm, i thought MYSTATUS couldnt change you to "waiting in battle room" status, as it would be checked from the data instead... checking which battle room each player is etc

Going back to the topic.

One thing needs to be fixed:

In this nice Autohost information box in the battleroom window the links wchich are part of the description arent typed as hyperlinks so there is no way to get the maplink from the description and so on.

Make #main the active tab when logon successful, like older version behavior (yes I have join #main when connected checked in preferences).

But TASClient stays with $local as the foremost tab not #main.
