Minor error on map 043-1.tmx at 88,118

The tile there seems wrong. a corner section of a building instead of a block of sand. Only shows when using the F key on the client (ManaPlus 1.414) to limit graphics.

Re: Real money trade

This has been done in other games and some of them were against the law in the country of operation. This can result in legal charges against the game operators for tax evasion reasons, or for failing to register as a company. I don't know how Germany looks at such things, but with all the current d...

Re: what is your main character class (please dont put alts)

I mostly play my warrior character. All that dancing that mages and archers have to do to stay alive makes me weary. They only do well in groups it seems, when they have plenty of room and few mobs to hit. Otherwise they need a sacrificial meat shield with them. Not a role I like. There is nothing l...

Mana+ 1.3.2.3 bug #1

The inventory item and storage sort option is broken. Nothing sorts correctly, though it does change the order, just not in any perceivable order.

Re: Warrior Stat Calculator

This looks pretty reasonable, though I hesitate to say that DPS is the major parameter for a Warrior. Lower attack delay can result in faster kills due to more hits per minute if your hit percentage is less than 100. I have verified this by comparing time to kill with and without using a concentrati...

Re: a little analysis of lag

I bow to the superior and much more current experience and knowledge of you experts. But as the King of Siam said in The King and I, 'is a puzzlement'! Lag doesn't increase my ping, it stays about 230ms, so that speaks to more a delay on the server side. I frequently experience lag when trying to tr...

Re: a little analysis of lag

This thread is good reading! Thanks. I've been developing my own (probably invalid) ideas about the lag cause and there are two that seem to be worth looking at; 1) garbage collection sweeps are taking too long and 2) there is a sync problem between clients and server that's causing surges in DB syn...

Odd chat messages from nearby players

I'm using the mana+ client 1.2.11.25 and noticed I get odd chat/whisper messages from people nearby and my client is responding automatically with gibberish. Example screen cap - http://lothlorien.sytes.net/mystuff/clientbug.jpg

Any clue to what is going on?
