Release v1.40.0 - Do not disturb

Features

Do not disturb

It is now possible to set your character as Do not disturb:

set dnd = yes

While having Do not disturb enabled, no one will be able to send messages to your character. Nor will your character be able to send messages to others.
Anyone attempting to send a message to a character set as Do not disturb will get a reply:

dnd_reply

The reply message can be customized by typing:

set dndMsg = The wolf seems to have turned off his phone.

These settings are also available under the Character Settings page, by clicking the cog-icon for the character under the Character Select page:

character_settings_dnd

For more info, type: help set

Thanks to @WakuWaku for the suggestion in this topic!

Strike through formatting

We now have strikethrough formatting. Typing:

pose writes a note: "I ~~like~~ love you."

would result in:

Accipiter writes a note: “I like love you.”

For more info, see: help format
Thanks to @Sabayon for suggesting it in this topic!

Clickable tags

It is now possible to click on a character’s tag to see the full description:

tag_popup

This allows tag descriptions to be seen on devices where hovering is not possible, such as mobile devices.
Thanks to @Soulwing for suggesting it in this topic!

Console history buttons

It is now possible to cycle through command history by using the up and down caret buttons on the right side of the command console:

command_console_cycle_buttons

Since cycling through commands was previously only available through Ctrl + Up and Ctrl + Down, these buttons makes it possible to cycle through commands on mobile devices as well.

Fixes

Updating client requires confirm
When getting the toaster on a new client update, if the user chooses to Update, the browser asks for an additional confirm to reload. This has been fixed so that the browser reloads without additional confirmation.

Ctrl + Down on first command
When typing in the first command after starting the client in a new tab, pressing Ctrl + Down would not do anything. This has been fixed, and the written text will be stored to history as expected.

Unable to force summon characters (moderator)
When a character is not awake, and is not in your Watch For list, trying to force summon the character would result in an error in the browser console. This has been fixed.

Room details not found in cache
By teleporting away from a hidden room, an error about room details not being found in the cache would end up in the browser console. This has been fixed.

Administration

Helper role (admin)
Admins can now add a helper role to players. This role comes with a title tag, but does not have any additional functionality yet. Helpers will later get access to handle help requests.

Compare command (moderator)
Moderators now have access to a compare command that allows them to verify if two characters belong to the same player.
To avoid abuse of the command, and to keep alt privacy intact, any use of the compare command will be logged for the other moderators to see. This also provides relevant information to all moderators in report cases.
