ROIcoin Release Notes for v1.1.4.0

Important Notice:

We still see many users using old obsolete wallets, for this reason there will be a hard fork at block 75000.
IF you are on the wrong chain ( not the same height as the block explorer ) , you will need to re-sync, this will be faster with v1.1.4, thanks to the fix for issue #47

The biggest new feature is the faster block loading times. The first time you start the new wallet it will still take as long as before, because it is building up a new hash index database ( You will see a new sub folder called "cache" in the blocks folder ).
Warning: You must let the loading process complete
The second time you restart the new wallet you will see a significantly faster loading time. This new cache only requires about 30 Mb extra disk space.

Changes

  • NEW - issue #15 a new flag -autoban (default is off) was introduced to automaticaly ban peers for 24hrs if they returned "Connection Refused" or "Host unreachable".
    This will reduce the cpu load when handling peers. ( recommended for 24/7 servers and VPS )
  • NEW - issue #16 a new flag -banobsoleteversion (default is off) was introduced to automaticaly ban peers for 24hrs who have obsolete old wallet version ( < v1.1.4 )
  • NEW - issue #40 matured coins will now show an alert bubble ( just like when you find a new block )
  • FIX - issue #39 TheTDD has rebuild the term deposit table from scratch and fixed the sorting issues ( should also be faster to sort and update ).
  • NEW - issue #47 TheTDD has implemented a deposit table delay mechanism to slow down UI updates during block sync at startup.
    Note: On Startup, it can take up to 5s before you see your term deposits, but it will speed up block syncing.
  • BUG - issue #19 the wallet rpcport was wrongly configured and conflicted with the p2p port, this was the reason for the slow syncing and low peer counts issues in the past.
    The rpcport is now by default set to 3376
  • NEW - issue #22 the sending addressbook will now contain the send and receive addresses combined , this will facilitate sending matured coins or combining inputs to yourself.
  • FIX - rpc gettransaction call will now show credit value without interest ( requested by elbandi, to help pool operators )
  • FIX - issue #42 estimated date is now based on 120s blocktime , this should provide a more accurate "Estimated Date" value.
  • FIX - issue #44 setban rpc command can now accept a custom bantime ( larger than 24hrs )
