G'day, There were a few things wrong with the UDP metaserver window on the current version of COW. It seemed sluggish. There was a defect, either mine or Carlos', that was causing it. Changed in CVS ... Tue Jul 24 14:47:50 2001 James Cameron <quozl at us.netrek.org> * parsemeta.c: fix delay during UDP startup, by waiting up four seconds for the first response from a metaserver, and not waiting one second between processing X events on the window. Update the list properly on a refresh. Fix empty window when the player is serviced by satellite delays. Change the colour on a server line to Cyan during a connection attempt to observe, and to Yellow during a normal connection attempt. Change to Green on successful connection. Change to Red if connection fails. Make better guesses as to the initial size of the window. Tidy up messages, remove excess periods, and add warning about no return packets suggesting a firewall as the cause. -- James Cameron mailto:quozl at us.netrek.org http://quozl.netrek.org/
