newlining issue
 
cmud isnt newlining on one Aardwolf session, while the other works fine, I'm not seeing anything visually incorrect jumping out at me from options / preferences

ingame, I've got compact mode off.. What gives?

I've spent four or five hours looking at every single detail.. I feel like I missed something, but, yeah, help?

what do you mean by newlining? Do you mean that a multiline list is going horizontal (1. item 2. item etc) instead of the normal vertical?

it's likely autowrap, matt, but I dont get how you would find that?

word wrapping -> auto is still checked..


what I mean is..
Code:
--> TICK <-- (All: 100%, Qt: 0)
TICK IN 5 SECONDS.
Auction: Galadar is auctioning roasting pan (Level 30, Num 376). Current bid is 100.
WARFARE: There are no enemies to fight each other. Peace declared!
--> TICK <-- (All: 100%, Qt: 0)
TICK IN 5 SECONDS.
--> TICK <-- (All: 100%, Qt: 0)
TICK IN 5 SECONDS.

Find autowrap? Sounds like you already found it, just click on Preferences and navigate through the tabs in the Preferences window.

At any rate, I don't see any evidence of wordwrapping at all in your example. If it's wrapping for you, you may want to put in some carriage returns so the rest of us can see it.

So in your example, this is actually what you are seeing?

Code:

--> TICK <-- (All: 100%, Qt: 0)TICK IN 5 SECONDS.Auction: Galadar...


Because your example HAS newlines, they come from Aardwolf itself. That's not a wrapping issue at all, there's something horribly wrong with your CMud installation itself or with your session data causing such a thing to manifest. The alternative is that you have a trigger or a massive fancy script doing something you didn't expect it to.

I think he means blank lines between.. double spaced even.

Or maybe its that his -->TICK<-- seems to be in the prompt

In that case, look for a trigger like this:

#trigger {^$} {#gag}

It could be standalone like the above, or it could be a multi-state trigger that gets stuck because something didn't match (being the active state, it would work just like the standalone version).

Similarly, there could be a properly working trigger that is doing a #GAG;#GAG -1 to remove the preceding blank line so that you don't get blank-line "stacking".

Okay, isolated it to a #gag issue, I'll have to slow-enable and check, thanks.
