my bug is that in the command line i can not use the <- to go back
type kill monster1_
<-
kill monster_1 the _ is the cursor, i can not do that with both fonts (courier and courier new)and with the 1.02
it works in 7.21 is the same rich text control?

the expand bug
the command line with sift enter expands, but i can not resize the window :S

jolopez, CMUD and zMUD 7.21 use a completely different rich text control. However, the cursor works fine here. Are you using the cursor keys, or the keypad? If using the keypad, be sure you have NumLock disabled. I can't imagine what would cause the arrow keys to not work for you, unless it's related to this same wierd problem with the command line not expanding that some people are having.

Thanks to RainChild for tracking down a way to reproduce the command line not expanding. Turns out that if you just press ESC from the character selection window (or just close it), then expanding the command line works. But if you open a MUD file (like click the Offline option for Medievia), then it doesn't work.

I have reproduced this, so now at least I have something I can test. My guess is that a preference is getting corrupted and is causing the font height calculation to mess up. But I should be able to fix this now.

Yeah it works for me when I do that. I still get the down arrow crash/bug error and I've send another report with a screenshot in. This was using the default settings for Cmud.

Should be fixed in 1.03 now. Let me know if you still have problems with the command line not expanding, or with stuff like the down-arrow crash.

Sweet, the command line auto and manually expanding works now. Thanks! However the down arrow crash when having more than one typed line still happens. This doesn't happen if there's only one typed line. If you press the down arrow in this case, it just clears it so you can type something new. Perhaps this is somehow linked to the double+ line crash?

Couldn't reproduce the down-arrow crash. Try it when just pressing ESC to get a blank window. If it fails there, send a crash dump and tell me exactly what was in the command line and where the cursor was when you pressed down arrow. This is going to be another one of those hard ones to track down, but since it's not a major issue, it's just getting added to the bug list along with the rest.

I just noticed that if you manually expand the command line, you don't have this problem. (Should've tried that before) It only occurs when word wrapping/auto expanding the command line. This applies both by pressing ESC when Cmud loads up and in game. It doesn't matter where the cursor is at, it'll crash. Sent you a crash report.
