-1.6.0 06-12-2020
- - Fixes to build with OpenWRT (thanks to Theodor-Iulian Ciobanu).
- - Write server pidfile after fork (thanks to Theodor-Iulian Ciobanu).
- - Updated German and French Canadian translations from Benjamin Karaca
- and Francois Marier.
- - Support for old GTK1 and GLIB1 libraries removed - we now need version 2
- of these libraries to build dopewars. GTK+3 is also supported.
- - Update metaserver to work with new SourceForge; older versions can no
- longer successfully register with the metaserver.
- - Switch to using libcurl to talk to the metaserver (this supports https,
- unlike the old internal code). The metaserver configuration has changed
- accordingly; MetaServer.Name, MetaServer.Port and MetaServer.Path are
- replaced with MetaServer.URL, while MetaServer.Auth, MetaServer.Proxy*,
- and MetaServer.UseSocks are removed (set the https_proxy environment
- variable instead, as per
- https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/libcurl-tutorial.html#Environment)
- - The default web browser on Linux has changed from 'mozilla' to
- 'firefox'; on Mac the system-configured default browser is used.
- - On Windows the high score file, log file, and config file are now
- stored in the user application data directory (e.g.
- C:\Users\foo\AppData\Local\dopewars) rather than the same directory as
- the dopewars binary.
- - Add sound support with SDL2, and on Mac.
- - Add 64-bit Windows binaries.
- - Fix for a DOS against the server using the REQUESTJET message type
- (thanks to Doug Prostko for reporting the problem).
-
-1.5.12 30-12-2005
- - Really fix a potential exploit against the Win32 server when running as
- an NT service (user data was being used as a format string in some cases…
-
-1.5.11 30-12-2005
- - Add example configuration file to the documentation.
- - Fixed various typos in the German translation (thanks to Jens Seidel
- and Francois Marier).
- - Fix a remote exploit against the Win32 server (thanks to KF).
- - High score file on Windows is now written into local application data
- directory if available, to work more efficiently on multi-user systems.
-
-1.5.10 24-10-2004
- - High score file is now installed in ${localstatedir} rather than
- ${datadir}, to allow proper Filesystem Hierarchy Standard compliance
- - Fix for a curses client crash if the D key is pressed during attacks
- by the cops
- - Some problems with the curses client missing screen resize events fixed
- - Logging to a file should now work properly again
- - Minimum and maximum limits on all relevant integer configuration
- file variables are now imposed for sanity
- - Quique's Spanish translation is now available both in standard Spanish
- (es.po) and es_ES.po, which uses drugs slang from Spain
- - Fix for a trivial DOS of the server
- - Windows installer no longer hardcodes 'C:\Program Files' so should
- work with non-English versions of Windows
-
-1.5.9 07-06-2003
- - The messages window in the curses client can now be scrolled with the
- + and - keys
- - The curses client now makes better use of space with screen sizes

- to use (thanks to Michael Mitton)
-
-1.5.8 21-10-2002
- - Options dialog now allows sounds for all supported game events to be set
- - BindAddress config variable added, to allow the server to be bound to
- a non-default IP address
- - BankInterest and DebtInterest variables added, to allow the
- configuration of interest rates (with thanks to Matt)
- - New "UTF8" ability added; if client and server share this ability, then
- all network messages will be sent in UTF-8 (Unicode) encoding (without
- the ability, all messages are assumed to be in your locale's default
- codeset, which may cause problems on non-US ASCII systems)
- - Names.Month and Names.Year have been replaced with StartDate.Day,
- StartDate.Month, StartDate.Year and Names.Date; these can be used to
- handle the date display properly after the turn number exceeds 31
- - encoding and include config directives added, to allow the config file's
- encoding (usually taken from the locale) to be overridden, and to allow
- the inclusion of other config files
- - Spanish translation added by Quique

- removed - only an old client connecting to a new server will
- trigger them)

- mouse user, previously you were able to access them via the keyboard
- shortcuts; now fixed.
- - configure should now work properly if GLib 2.0 is installed but
- GTK2.0 is not
- - Norwegian Nynorsk translation added by �smund
- - If dopewars is run setuid/setgid, it will now only use this privilege
- to open the default (hard-coded) high score file; it will not open
- a user-specified high score file with privilege
- - It is no longer necessary to run "dopewars -C" on a zero-byte high
- score file; it will be converted automatically
- - A new server command "save" can be used to save the current configuration
- to a named config file
-
-1.5.6 29-04-2002

-
-1.4.8 09-07-2000
- - Several fixes to Win32 networking code
- - IdleTimeout and ConnectTimeout variables added, to allow the server to
- break connections that have been idle for too long, or take too long
- to (dis)connect, respectively

- MetaServer.Port variable split into .HttpPort and .UdpPort
- - MetaServer.Password can now be used with a blank MetaServer.LocalName

- such as HP-UX, and also to build "out of the box" under Cygwin (win32)
- - long long datatype used for all prices on platforms that support it
- - fixes to strtoprice and pricetostr code; replacement of code which
- uses printf("%ld") for prices with pricetostr calls (with thanks to
- Coolio)
- - "Leave" option added to Bank
- - Messages window is now only displayed for network games
- - Binary can be compiled without TCP/IP networking support (e.g. for use
- on standalone systems) by configuring with --disable-networking
- - Minor modification to config. file handling to allow variables to be set
- to null strings (use "Variable=")
- - Option to allow the "local" server name to be specified when registering
- with the metaserver - MetaServer.LocalName variable. Useful when the
- metaserver refuses to resolve your IP address to your "preferred" domain
- name or when connecting via an enforced web proxy. Email the metaserver
- maintainer, for an authentication password (MetaServer.Password) linked …

-
-1.4.6 12-11-1999

- - Corrected website address displayed by client on connecting to a
- server of a different version
- - If player opts to play again, defaults to the name they used last time
- - Server now disconnects clients when their game ends (rather than
- waiting for them to politely disconnect) - this gets around the problem
- of particularly unresponsive clients getting killed and then sitting
- around in an "undead" state, able to be repeatedly killed by other
- players
- - Armed players cannot now "stand and take it" (why would you want to
- anyway?) in multiplayer fights
- - Client now offers to obtain the list of available servers from the
- metaserver, to select one to connect to
- - "Special" values (MetaServer), (Prompt) and (Single) (including the
- brackets) now accepted for the "Server" variable, which instruct the
- client to list the servers, prompt the user for a server, or play
- in single-player mode, rather than connecting immediately to a server
- - "MetaServer.Port" variable added to facilitate connection to the
- metaserver via a proxy server (with thanks to Tony Brown)

- to Lamagra)
- - Command line option -S for running a "private" server (do not contact
- the metaserver)

- number of drugs and guns) (with thanks to Matt Higgins)
- - "ConfigVerbose" option added to display extra feedback during config
- file processing (with thanks to Matt Higgins)
-

- (although a warning is displayed to upgrade as soon as possible)
- - dopewars client now properly redraws the screen when Ctrl-L is pressed
- - Server output is now line-buffered by default for more sensible output
- of log files
- - L>ist bug in single player mode fixed
- - Number of game turns can now be configured with the "NumTurns"
- variable, or the game can be left to go on forever if it's set to zero
- - The shortcuts "k" and "m" are now supported in any input of numbers
- (e.g. money to put in the bank). So, for instance, typing 1.5m would
- be short for typing 1500000 (m=million, k=thousand)
- - Server now automatically contacts the dopewars metaserver (actually
- a CGI script), at bellatrix.pcl.ox.ac.uk, whenever it is brought up or
- down, to keep the list of servers on the dopewars webpage up to date.
- Aspects of the server's communication with the metaserver can be
- configured with the MetaServer.xxx variables
- - Names of the two police officers which chase you (originally
- Hardass and Bob) can now be configured with the variables
- "Names.Officer" and "Names.ReserveOfficer" respectively
- (provided by: Mike Meyer)
- - Several uses of the string constant "bitches" rather than
- the variable "Names.Bitches" have been spotted, and corrected
- (provided by: Mike Meyer)
- - "Sanitized" variable - if nonzero, removes drug references
- (random events, the cops, etc.) - obviously drug names need to also
- be changed in the config. file to complement this. Turns dopewars into
- a simple trading game
- (provided by: Mike Meyer)
- - Minor formatting cleanups to accommodate longer drug names on the
- screen neatly
- (provided by: Mike Meyer)
-
-1.4.3 23-06-1999

- are pushed off the server) - i.e. they should revert to a single-player
- mode game
- - price_t type used for all prices
- - Server interactive interface is now greatly improved, complete with
- help screen
- - SO_REUSEADDR set so that server can be restarted immediately if it crash…
- - Facility to drop unwanted drugs, with the accompanying chance that you
- are caught by Officer Hardass and shot at
- - Fighting interface greatly improved:-
- - All player-player fighting now occurs in a specialised window. Players
- can switch between the standard "deal drugs" window and the fighting
- window with the D and F keys
- - Number of keystrokes required to shoot and acknowledge all the
- relevant messages now greatly reduced
- - Some indication is now given of the other player's status (number of
- bitches and guns)
- - Server now imposes timeouts on fights, so if an opponent does not
- return fire within a set time, a repeat attack is allowed

- they're carrying are passed on to the victor (if he/she is able to
- carry them)
- - A dead player's cash is appropriated by the victor of a fight
- - Handling of configuration files now greatly improved; the same options
- that are set here can also be set within the server as long as no
- players are connected. A large number of dopewars settings can be
- changed and customised from here. Customised settings will be used
- in single-player mode, and if dopewars is used as a server the settings
- will be propagated to any clients (of version 1.4.3 or higher) that
- connect. Not everything can be customised, but any remaining changes
- should be server-side only (and thus require no alteration to the
- clients). Options include:-
- - MaxClients option to limit the maximum number of players connected
- to the server
- - FightTimeout option to alter the length of the fight timeout
- - StartCash and StartDebt to change the default starting cash and debt
- of every player
- - Probabilities and toughness of Officer Hardass and his deputies can
- be "tweaked"

+# 1.6.0 06-12-2020
+- Fixes to build with OpenWRT (thanks to Theodor-Iulian Ciobanu).
+- Write server pidfile after fork (thanks to Theodor-Iulian Ciobanu).
+- Updated German and French Canadian translations from Benjamin Karaca
+ and Francois Marier.
+- Support for old GTK1 and GLIB1 libraries removed - we now need version 2
+ of these libraries to build dopewars. GTK+3 is also supported.
+- Update metaserver to work with new SourceForge; older versions can no
+ longer successfully register with the metaserver.
+- Switch to using libcurl to talk to the metaserver (this supports https,
+ unlike the old internal code). The metaserver configuration has changed
+ accordingly; `MetaServer.Name`, `MetaServer.Port` and `MetaServer.Path` are
+ replaced with `MetaServer.URL`, while `MetaServer.Auth`, `MetaServer.Proxy*`,
+ and `MetaServer.UseSocks` are removed (set the `https_proxy` environment
+ variable instead, as per
+ https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/libcurl-tutorial.html#Environment)
+- The default web browser on Linux has changed from 'mozilla' to
+ 'firefox'; on Mac the system-configured default browser is used.
+- On Windows the high score file, log file, and config file are now
+ stored in the user application data directory (e.g.
+ `C:\Users\foo\AppData\Local\dopewars`) rather than the same directory as
+ the dopewars binary.
+- Add sound support with SDL2, and on Mac.
+- Add 64-bit Windows binaries.
+- Fix for a DOS against the server using the REQUESTJET message type
+ (thanks to Doug Prostko for reporting the problem).
+
+# 1.5.12 30-12-2005
+- Really fix a potential exploit against the Win32 server when running as
+ an NT service (user data was being used as a format string in some cases).
+
+# 1.5.11 30-12-2005
+- Add example configuration file to the documentation.
+- Fixed various typos in the German translation (thanks to Jens Seidel
+ and Francois Marier).
+- Fix a remote exploit against the Win32 server (thanks to KF).
+- High score file on Windows is now written into local application data
+ directory if available, to work more efficiently on multi-user systems.
+
+# 1.5.10 24-10-2004
+- High score file is now installed in `${localstatedir}` rather than
+ `${datadir}`, to allow proper Filesystem Hierarchy Standard compliance
+- Fix for a curses client crash if the D key is pressed during attacks
+ by the cops
+- Some problems with the curses client missing screen resize events fixed
+- Logging to a file should now work properly again
+- Minimum and maximum limits on all relevant integer configuration
+ file variables are now imposed for sanity
+- Quique's Spanish translation is now available both in standard Spanish
+ (`es.po`) and `es_ES.po`, which uses drugs slang from Spain
+- Fix for a trivial DOS of the server
+- Windows installer no longer hardcodes `C:\Program Files` so should
+ work with non-English versions of Windows
+
+# 1.5.9 07-06-2003
+- The messages window in the curses client can now be scrolled with the
+ + and - keys
+- The curses client now makes better use of space with screen sizes
+ larger than 80x24
+- Fix for a crash encountered if you drop drugs and then encounter the cops
+- Addition of -P, --player command line option to set the player name
+ to use (thanks to Michael Mitton)
+
+# 1.5.8 21-10-2002
+- Options dialog now allows sounds for all supported game events to be set
+- BindAddress config variable added, to allow the server to be bound to
+ a non-default IP address
+- BankInterest and DebtInterest variables added, to allow the
+ configuration of interest rates (with thanks to Matt)
+- New "UTF8" ability added; if client and server share this ability, then
+ all network messages will be sent in UTF-8 (Unicode) encoding (without
+ the ability, all messages are assumed to be in your locale's default
+ codeset, which may cause problems on non-US ASCII systems)
+- Names.Month and Names.Year have been replaced with StartDate.Day,
+ StartDate.Month, StartDate.Year and Names.Date; these can be used to
+ handle the date display properly after the turn number exceeds 31
+- encoding and include config directives added, to allow the config file's
+ encoding (usually taken from the locale) to be overridden, and to allow
+ the inclusion of other config files
+- Spanish translation added by Quique
+- The Windows build of dopewars should now use Unicode throughout, on
+ platforms with Unicode support (i.e. NT/2000/XP)
+- Under Windows XP, the "pretty" new common controls are now used
+- Sounds provided by Robin Kohli of www.19.5degs.com
+
+# 1.5.7 25-06-2002
+- Sound support; Windows multimedia, ESD and SDL outputs are supported;
+ the individual modules can be statically linked in, or built as true
+ "plugins"
+- Version mismatches between client and server are now treated more
+ sensibly (it's all done server-side, and spurious warnings are now
+ removed - only an old client connecting to a new server will
+ trigger them)
+- Bug fix: when the buttons in the Fight dialog are not visible to a
+ mouse user, previously you were able to access them via the keyboard
+ shortcuts; now fixed.
+- configure should now work properly if GLib 2.0 is installed but
+ GTK2.0 is not
+- Norwegian Nynorsk translation added by �smund
+- If dopewars is run setuid/setgid, it will now only use this privilege
+ to open the default (hard-coded) high score file; it will not open
+ a user-specified high score file with privilege
+- It is no longer necessary to run "dopewars -C" on a zero-byte high
+ score file; it will be converted automatically
+- A new server command "save" can be used to save the current configuration
+ to a named config file
+
+# 1.5.6 29-04-2002
+- Bug fix: the server will only let you pay back loans or deal with the
+ bank when you are at the correct location, and you can no longer
+ "pay back" negative amounts of cash to the loan shark
+- Minor improvements to fighting code
+- The GTK+2 client should now run properly in non-UTF8 locales, and
+ handle configuration files in both UTF8 and non-UTF8 locales
+- Unsafe list iteration in serverside code (which could possibly cause
+ memory corruption) fixed
+- Another dumb PPC bug fixed
+- Incorrect LIBS generated by configure script in some circumstances
+ (due to a GTK+/Glib bug) - now fixed

+ to Mike Robinson)
+- GTK+ client should now work with GTK+2.0
+
+# 1.5.4 03-03-2002
+- Basic configuration file editor added to GTK+ client

+- Win32 client now uses "proper" dialog boxes (i.e. without a window menu)
+- Icon added for GTK+ client
+- Bug with withdrawing cash from the bank fixed
+- URL in GTK+ client "About" box is now clickable
+- Crash bugs when running on PPC systems fixed (with thanks to Zeke
+ and Brian Campbell)
+
+# 1.5.3 04-02-2002

+ connect later with the -A option)
+- Windows server can now be run as an NT Service
+- Fatal bug when visiting the bank (under Win2000/XP) fixed

+- Win32 install for current user/all users
+- Code cleanups
+

+- Support for HTTP proxies and authentication
+- SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 (user/password) support
+- French translation added by leonard
+- Boolean configuration variables (TRUE/FALSE) now supported
+- Many code cleanups
+- High score files now have a "proper" header, so that file(1) can
+ identify them, and so the -f option cannot be used to force setgid-games
+ dopewars to overwrite random files writeable by group "games" - use
+ the -C option to convert old high score files to the new format
+- GNU long command line options now accepted on platforms with `getopt_long`
+- Simple installer now in place for Win32 systems
+
+# 1.5.1 19-06-2001

+- Various minor usability fixes on Win32 systems
+
+# 1.5.0beta2 29-04-2001

+- Completely rewritten fighting code
+- Internationalization (i18n) support
+- Tense and case-sensitive translated strings handled via `dpg_` analogues
+ to glib's `g_` string handling functions `%P` = price,
+ `%Txx` or `%txx` = tense-sensitive string, `%/.../` = comment (ignored)
+- Networking revamped - now uses nonblocking sockets to improve server
+ responsiveness and to remove deadlocks (previously, any client could
+ halt server by sending an unterminated message); "abilities" added to
+ allow backwards-compatible protocol extensions; player IDs used rather
+ than player names to save bandwidth, with newer client+server
+- Drug values now stored by server (e.g. "you have 5 Weed @ $600); sent
+ only if DrugValue config. variable is set, and only to new clients
+ (based on a patch by Pierre F)
+- Spying fixed (cannot now spy on a player until they accept your bitch)
+- Longer `T>alk` and `P>age` messages allowed in curses client
+- Minor bug fixes to configure options

+ (of the format { "string1", "string2", "string3" } ) are now supported
+ for configuration of subway sayings, "stopped to" and overheard songs
+- Timeouts bug fixed
+- MaxClients bug fixed
+
+# 1.4.8 09-07-2000
+- Several fixes to Win32 networking code
+- IdleTimeout and ConnectTimeout variables added, to allow the server to
+ break connections that have been idle for too long, or take too long
+ to (dis)connect, respectively
+- Servers now use UDP packets to communicate with metaserver, for
+ a faster response to changing game conditions; the client, and older
+ versions of the server, still use the "old" CGI script interface;
+ MetaServer.Port variable split into .HttpPort and .UdpPort
+- MetaServer.Password can now be used with a blank MetaServer.LocalName
+ (with the new metaserver interface only) in order to identify servers
+ whose IPs are dynamic (but are otherwise the "same" server); this password
+ must, again, be acquired from the metaserver maintainer
+- Metaserver now records current & maximum numbers of players, high
+ scores, and last update time and uptime, for each server
+- Servers now re-register with metaserver when players join or leave,
+ on receipt of a SIGUSR1 signal, and periodically
+- Metaserver list in client now lists uptime, and current/maximum
+ numbers of players

+ now takes them back to the fighting screen
+
+# 1.4.7 14-01-2000
+- Minor fixes to Win32 code
+- dopewars now uses autoconf to (hopefully) build properly on odd sytems
+ such as HP-UX, and also to build "out of the box" under Cygwin (win32)
+- long long datatype used for all prices on platforms that support it
+- fixes to strtoprice and pricetostr code; replacement of code which
+ uses printf("%ld") for prices with pricetostr calls (with thanks to
+ Coolio)
+- "Leave" option added to Bank
+- Messages window is now only displayed for network games
+- Binary can be compiled without TCP/IP networking support (e.g. for use
+ on standalone systems) by configuring with --disable-networking
+- Minor modification to config. file handling to allow variables to be set
+ to null strings (use "Variable=")
+- Option to allow the "local" server name to be specified when registering
+ with the metaserver - MetaServer.LocalName variable. Useful when the
+ metaserver refuses to resolve your IP address to your "preferred" domain
+ name or when connecting via an enforced web proxy. Email the metaserver
+ maintainer, for an authentication password (MetaServer.Password) linked to
+ your chosen domain name, to use this option successfully.
+
+# 1.4.6 12-11-1999
+- Bug fix for message window and "sew you up" prompt
+- Bug fix for server hanging in LoseBitch function
+- If player opts to play again, server selection method used last time
+ is used again
+- Terminal resizing now handled properly
+- Port to Win32 (Windows 95,98,NT) console mode
+
+# 1.4.5 21-10-1999
+- Limited support now for terminals at sizes other than 80x24; but response
+ to a resize during the program run doesn't work properly yet...
+- Minor improvements to AI players
+- Corrected website address displayed by client on connecting to a
+ server of a different version
+- If player opts to play again, defaults to the name they used last time
+- Server now disconnects clients when their game ends (rather than
+ waiting for them to politely disconnect) - this gets around the problem
+ of particularly unresponsive clients getting killed and then sitting
+ around in an "undead" state, able to be repeatedly killed by other
+ players
+- Armed players cannot now "stand and take it" (why would you want to
+ anyway?) in multiplayer fights
+- Client now offers to obtain the list of available servers from the
+ metaserver, to select one to connect to
+- "Special" values (MetaServer), (Prompt) and (Single) (including the
+ brackets) now accepted for the "Server" variable, which instruct the
+ client to list the servers, prompt the user for a server, or play
+ in single-player mode, rather than connecting immediately to a server
+- "MetaServer.Port" variable added to facilitate connection to the
+ metaserver via a proxy server (with thanks to Tony Brown)
+- Signal handling cleaned up
+- Buffer overflow problem with ExtractWord() fixed (hopefully) (with thanks
+ to Lamagra)
+- Command line option -S for running a "private" server (do not contact
+ the metaserver)
+- Prices for spies and tipoffs can be customised; this information is not
+ communicated properly between 1.4.5 and earlier versions, of course.
+ In such a case, the game will still work properly, although the client
+ may report erroneous spy and tipoff prices
+- Fixed dodgy "pricetostr" function
+- Bug fix for "Drop" command in single-player mode
+- Command line option -g for specifying a supplementary configuration file
+- FightTimeout variable fixed - it now actually does something...
+- GunShop, LoanShark, RoughPub and Bank variables corrected so that they
+ take actual location numbers now - not (location-1). WARNING: this
+ breaks old configuration files!
+- Full HTML documentation now provided
+- Prices of bitches for hire can now be configured - Bitch.MinPrice and
+ Bitch.MaxPrice
+- Removed description of non-existent "die" command in server
+- Minor fixes in antique mode
+- Fix of NumDrug and NumGun processing (now allows more than the default
+ number of drugs and guns) (with thanks to Matt Higgins)
+- "ConfigVerbose" option added to display extra feedback during config
+ file processing (with thanks to Matt Higgins)
+
+# 1.4.4 16-09-1999
+- Full compatibility with 1.4.3 servers and clients maintained
+ (although a warning is displayed to upgrade as soon as possible)
+- dopewars client now properly redraws the screen when Ctrl-L is pressed
+- Server output is now line-buffered by default for more sensible output
+ of log files
+- `L>ist` bug in single player mode fixed
+- Number of game turns can now be configured with the "NumTurns"
+ variable, or the game can be left to go on forever if it's set to zero
+- The shortcuts "k" and "m" are now supported in any input of numbers
+ (e.g. money to put in the bank). So, for instance, typing 1.5m would
+ be short for typing 1500000 (m=million, k=thousand)
+- Server now automatically contacts the dopewars metaserver (actually
+ a CGI script), at bellatrix.pcl.ox.ac.uk, whenever it is brought up or
+ down, to keep the list of servers on the dopewars webpage up to date.
+ Aspects of the server's communication with the metaserver can be
+ configured with the MetaServer.xxx variables
+- Names of the two police officers which chase you (originally
+ Hardass and Bob) can now be configured with the variables
+ "Names.Officer" and "Names.ReserveOfficer" respectively
+ (provided by: Mike Meyer)
+- Several uses of the string constant "bitches" rather than
+ the variable "Names.Bitches" have been spotted, and corrected
+ (provided by: Mike Meyer)
+- "Sanitized" variable - if nonzero, removes drug references
+ (random events, the cops, etc.) - obviously drug names need to also
+ be changed in the config. file to complement this. Turns dopewars into
+ a simple trading game (provided by: Mike Meyer)
+- Minor formatting cleanups to accommodate longer drug names on the
+ screen neatly (provided by: Mike Meyer)
+
+# 1.4.3 23-06-1999
+- Bug with random offer of weed/paraquat fixed
+- `L>ist` command now offers list of logged-on players or high scores
+- "Out of time" message to explain why the game stops suddenly after 31 days
+- Bank is now a little more user-friendly
+- Messages announcing players leaving or joining the game now appear in
+ the central "messages" window, rather than the main, bottom window
+- Clients should now behave properly after the server crashes (or they
+ are pushed off the server) - i.e. they should revert to a single-player
+ mode game
+- `price_t` type used for all prices
+- Server interactive interface is now greatly improved, complete with
+ help screen
+- `SO_REUSEADDR` set so that server can be restarted immediately if it crashes
+- Facility to drop unwanted drugs, with the accompanying chance that you
+ are caught by Officer Hardass and shot at
+- Fighting interface greatly improved:-
+ - All player-player fighting now occurs in a specialised window. Players
+ can switch between the standard "deal drugs" window and the fighting
+ window with the D and F keys
+ - Number of keystrokes required to shoot and acknowledge all the
+ relevant messages now greatly reduced
+ - Some indication is now given of the other player's status (number of
+ bitches and guns)
+ - Server now imposes timeouts on fights, so if an opponent does not
+ return fire within a set time, a repeat attack is allowed
+ - A bounty is paid out for killing an enemy bitch, and any guns/drugs
+ they're carrying are passed on to the victor (if he/she is able to
+ carry them)
+ - A dead player's cash is appropriated by the victor of a fight
+- Handling of configuration files now greatly improved; the same options
+ that are set here can also be set within the server as long as no
+ players are connected. A large number of dopewars settings can be
+ changed and customised from here. Customised settings will be used
+ in single-player mode, and if dopewars is used as a server the settings
+ will be propagated to any clients (of version 1.4.3 or higher) that
+ connect. Not everything can be customised, but any remaining changes
+ should be server-side only (and thus require no alteration to the
+ clients). Options include:-
+ - MaxClients option to limit the maximum number of players connected
+ to the server
+ - FightTimeout option to alter the length of the fight timeout
+ - StartCash and StartDebt to change the default starting cash and debt
+ of every player
+ - Probabilities and toughness of Officer Hardass and his deputies can
+ be "tweaked"
+ - Numbers and names of locations, drugs and guns can be altered
+ - The words used to denote "bitches", "guns" and "drugs" can be
+ customised
+ - Drugs can now be sorted by name or by price, in forwards or reverse
+ order, with the DrugSortMethod option (can take values 1-4)
+
+# 1.4.2 16-05-1999
+- AI player improvements
+- Message structure changed to use less bandwidth and neater code
+- Now easier to break out of buy/sell drug prompts etc. (by pressing an
+ 'invalid' key or ENTER)

+- Cleanup after a player leaves the server; i.e. remove any references to
+ their spies or tipoffs with other players

+ Dunno how that one slipped through... I blame my beta testers... ;)
+
+# 1.4.0 27-04-1999
+- Fixed bug with server; server now detects if standard input has
+ been closed properly (previously if its input was redirected from

+
+# 1.3.8 26-04-1999
+- Message structure changed; separator changed from : to ^ and extra

+- Option added for computer players (non-functional however)
+
+# 1.3.6 14-03-1999
+- BreakoffCombat routine added to terminate fights cleanly when one

+ clientside.c (client-side code)
+- Drug prices now generated by server, not client - so synchronisation
+ of turns (and drug prices) should be easy to implement in the future
+- Minimal functionality - networking backbone only...
+
+# 1.2.0 13-02-1999
+- Stable release; some bugs in fighting code cleaned up
+
+# 1.1.26 13-02-1999
+- "PolicePresence" member is now read - when a fight is started, there
+ is a finite chance (varies from location to location) that the
+ perpetrator will get attacked by the police
+- MinDrug and MaxDrug members added to Location struct - some locations
+ may have a smaller range of drugs on offer than others
+
+# 1.1.25 11-02-1999
+- Added an "Inventory" struct to keep track of players' belongings
+ and anything dropped during a fight; winner of a fight now gets
+ whatever the other player dropped (guns and/or drugs)
+
+# 1.1.24 9-02-1999
+- Put in code to "finish" fights properly when one player escapes
+- Attacking player is now told whether they hit the other player or
+ not when in a fight
+
+# 1.1.23 3-02-1999
+- "Jet" command replaced with "Run" when in a fight
+- "PolicePresence" member added to Location struct
+- GunShop bug fixed (guns were taking up no space)
+
+# 1.1.22 30-01-1999
+- Implemented very simple "shoot at another dealers" code; players, on
+ arriving at a location where another dealer already is, can choose
+ to attack (if they have any guns). The attacked player can then
+ choose to return fire or run for it...
+
+# 1.1.21 29-01-1999
+- Added support for the "spy on another dealer" bitch errand
+
+# 1.1.20 29-01-1999
+- Added support for the "tip off another dealer to the cops" bitch errand
