Aardwolf Progress Update 15FEB04


- Hopefully the bugs with class channels/advice turning each other on/off are gone. All of these are using completely new flags, so you will need to turn them on/off one last time as suits you.

- The 'channels' command is now the new version. This means two main changes - the list is sorted alphabetically, and the channels that have not yet been converted will not show at all.

- The 'gsocial' channel no longer exists. It was an experiment before we had socials/emotes on other channels and never quite went away.

- The equivalent of the old 'gthink' command can now be done on any channel. For example 'ftalk *think Ivar is god!'.

The same applies to the old 'gsay' command - now you can do this on any channel using, for example, 'gossip *say Ivar rocks :)'

The 'channels' help entry has been rewritten to reflect these changes.

- The lasertag info channel is now part of the new channel system which means that you can do 'lasertag -h' to view lasertag history. Just typing 'lasertag' with no arguments turns the channel on/off making the 'nolaser' command redundant. The 'nolaser' command has been removed.

The 'team' channel that is also part of lasertag has been converted, but this one does not have history. It does have its own on/off flag so that you can turn this on/off independently of lasertag announcements. The team channel will only show as active during a lasertag game.

- The 'music' channel has also been converted which means it now has a history feature. The jukebox messages are also included in that history.
