Zugg Software :: View topic - [2.01] Simutronics login bug re: no name and password

If you try to connect to a Simutronics game with a new session and you did not edit the session properties to fill in the accountname, CMud doesn't send what you type into the login window. This generates an "Unexpected response from server" error.

In a related issue, it seems that the autologin this account option doesn't cause the password to be saved, meaning that the autologin process stops and waits for user input. Oops? Smile

If the password is already saved, then it proceeds automatically like normal.

I never could get it to save my account password in the old version via the popup window either.

Though I did get that error the first time i filled in the data on my new system in said window.

It's probably related to the passwords being moved to their own encrypted sessionkeys.db file. I'll add this to the bug list.

Actually, the problem turned out to be the new string list code. CMUD was using it to handle tab-delimited lists (like the response data from Simutronics) and there was a problem handling string lists that had control characters for delimiters. This is fixed in the next version.
