Change to how unknown XML tags are echoed
|
Someone reported a problem with a MUD that displays a line of text like this when you first connect:
| Code: |
| <Enter name or press Return> |
and then just waits. There is no newline sent...this is like a MUD prompt.
In CMUD, this is treated as an undefined tag when MXP is enabled. And since there isn't any newline, CMUD still waits for the closing tag (or a newline) before deciding whether to display the text. So, the result is that this text prompt is not displayed.
This problem could also be triggered by a MUD prompt that starts with < and ends with > in some cases.
To fix this problem, I needed to modify CMUD so that any unknown tag that occurs in a packet without a newline is echoed to the screen.
If you are playing on a MUD that uses XML for something and they send the XML tags in their own network packet (without the closing tag), then you might start seeing these tags echoed to the screen if if the "Echo unknown tags" option is disabled. Sorry for this side-effect, but I don't see any other way to fix this issue. |

No, it wouldn't effect that because each of those lines properly ends in a newline. It would only happen if it was in your prompt.
