Per-character (instead of per-account) gender

The latest ManaPlus 1.5.1.3 changelog includes this:
add: per char gender (hercules)
I assume this also needs to be implemented server-side to work, or am I mistaken? If so, it would be a nice feature to have.

Yes for this need impliment support on server side.
But this was added in client not for tmw server, but for better with nama hercules.
It cant be used in tmw. But can be used in evol.

Adding server side requires:
  • Network protocol support
  • Savefile support
The first is "easy", but may confuse older clients. The second is "hard" (there is not yet a formal description of the savefile formats, only an in-code description), but does not affect client support.

Remember that our (TMW's) goal is to support all clients released in the last 6 months.
