Genie 5 — v5.0.0-alpha.7.7
A community bug-fix and polish release — clickable news listings, clearer
disconnect feedback, an accurate mob count, and a Room window that wraps again in
windowed mode. Most of these came straight from issue reports; thanks to everyone
who filed them.
Alpha software. Builds are unsigned for most platforms — Windows
SmartScreen will warn on first launch (More info → Run anyway). Signing is
tracked in #33.
✨ New
- Clickable news listings (#30) — DR's
newslisting arrives as plain text
with no links, so the numbered items weren't clickable. Genie 5 now synthesizes
a click target over each numbered line (e.g.news 1 2), so you can open an
article straight from the list. - Disconnect feedback (#114) — leaving the game is now unmissable: a
timestampeddisconnectedline in the Game window (Genie 4 parity) plus an
optional "Disconnected" popup. It's suppressed while auto-reconnecting, and the
popup can be turned off under Window → Disconnect Popup (the line always
shows regardless).
🐛 Fixes
- Mob count for same-type creatures (#118) — two creatures joined by "and"
with no comma ("a giant viper and a giant viper") were collapsed into a single
entry, throwing the count off. Each creature is now split and counted
individually, so the Mobs panel and$monstercountare correct. - Room window wrapping in MDI (#124) — in windowed/MDI mode the Room window
stopped wrapping and ran off the edge. It wraps again. (Docked/tabbed mode was
never affected.)
