Darwinbots 2.44.05 and DarwinbotsIM 1.1 Released

(1/3) > >>

Shasta:
I fixed a couple of UI bugs that were prominent in 2.44.04.

* Fixed the crash with deleting the last species in the Species List
* Fixed the crash on the cancellation of loading a sim

Along with this I put together a new version of DarwinbotsIM. The big new feature is that you will (hopefully) never have to download another version of it again. This version scans some files on the server, sees if a new version of Darwinbots2 has been released, and then updates itself to be able to scan the memory of the new version.  This version will still prompt you when a new version of DarwinbotsIM is available though. I'll need to put new versions online to add-in features and whatnot (I may add in the Zerobot IM mode Wake requested sometime in the future for example).

I now know that some of my instructions on it in the last post were slightly wrong. If you use Windows Vista or 7, DarwinbotsIM must be running at the same privilege level or higher than Darwinbots2. So if you have DB2 running as Admin or in one of the Compatibility modes, you will need to run DarwinbotsIM as an Administrator. Beyond that though, DarwinbotsIM can just run as a normal user. If you run into any new problems with either of the programs post it in the Bugs section and I will try to take care of it, I'm in and out of having internet over the next two weeks though. (Posting this from an airport.)

Numsgil:
Hey Shasta, thanks for fixing things.  One thing you can do: use UPX to make the executable much smaller.  Not a big deal either way.  Just something I was doing with more recent releases.

Shasta:
I put up a new version that is packed. It is about 25% of the old size (~500K v ~2M), it is uploaded at the same address.

Panda:
You also have to click the DB icon when you put it in ninja mode.

Shasta:
You can now check the status of IM online.

This is just a list of sims, I will make this look better and maybe track some stats over time, but for now, this is it  :happy:
