Caretaker X1 Xelagot enhancement (Community)
Caretaker X1 Xelagot enhancement // CommunityxelagApr 28, 2001, 7:52pm
The version 2.9999990 of X1 Xelagot, just uploaded, has an enhancement in
caretakers' Give/Take rights using the Presence list pop-up menu: Give/Take rights have now been merged into one menu, with a checkmark indicating if a right is on or off, and allowing to change that. There is also a new menu allowing to change the rights of the citizen number belonging to the privs used by an avatar... so if someone is wearing privs, you can adjust those rights too. You can now check and change directly: 1. collective rights (the rights with a *) 2. personal rights of someone 3. rights of the privilege number used by someone. Non-caretaker bots allow you to check but not to change the rights. XelaG wingApr 29, 2001, 11:15pm
The six digit version numbers are a pain :) Maybe you could drop to maybe 2 or 3 when you git 3.0? version 3.001 is much easier than
v3.000001 [View Quote] builderzApr 30, 2001, 8:32pm
Yes, I agree with Wing on this.

LOL, it's really none of your business, you don't need to type in the
version number. It is used internally to check whether the new version needs to change format settings (there have been tens of changes in the settings) without bothering you. If you don't like the number, buy another ticket LOL. XelaG [View Quote] whoMay 1, 2001, 10:11am
Hi,
Well you know me, and I am used to your version numbers. I do fully expect that after you reach 2.9999999 the next version will be 2.999999910 ;-) Or do i remember an 8 digit limit somewhere? [View Quote] -- Cheers, Who xelagMay 2, 2001, 12:18am
LOL
the problem is simply that the bot, at each new version, checks the ini file for the previous version number, using float notation, just in case it has to upgrade files. The accepted way of writing version numbers is not usable in this context, and if I had used the build number system, I would be in build 19657 now (or something like it), which is not really very helpfull to anyone. So I keep the float number system going, I'd rather see 2.9999991 than which tells me at least it is still version 2 point something (5 nines plus 2 digits). Version 3.0 is almost there, the big bugs are now gone as far as I know, I'll see next how I organize the lot later on :) [View Quote] |
