Sometimes when I switch between 2 levels very quickly the players/NPCs in the level I stop in will be missing completely until I switch levels again or reconnect. This happens in Graal v2 too.

Someone else was able reproduce it, and they also ended up in the wrong X/Y position once or twice. Also, the other day on Unholy Nation I was in townsparmedium.graal, walking out to townsparlobby.graal and ended up in a wall across the room.

Possibly just "load lag"? But it can be a problem when it happens accidently. For example, when I was on UN with the previously described problem, they disable "unstick me" in those levels so that most people wouldn't be able to get out without asking for staff assistance.

All signs point to GMAP.

I actually edited my post to remove the levels I originally posted because I thought it was happening to almost any 2 levels. (It's 10 AM right now and I haven't slept, don't ask )

But here are 2 examples:

Classic:
graalcitybank_inside_01.nw <-> graalcity_outside_03.nw
taylorrichards_inside_01.nw <-> graalcity_outside_01.nw

Yes, a part of it could be gmap related, but there have also been problems in non-gmap areas such as the ones I posted about already on UN.

This happens of v2 also. You can also do it under the nafet's river bridge, it's quite fun, people got to areas before they were supposed to be able to.

UN uses a GMAP don't they?

If you maximize Graal4, then quit, then start Graal4 again, the window starts up at basically fullscreen, but it is not maximized.

Oh, it works if you select multiple people and choose "Message" from the context menu, but not if you select the first person you want to receive the message, then double click on the last one; in that case, it sends to the last person that you double clicked on.

Ah double-clicking should always send to just one person, is it displaying "to selected" or actually the name of the player you have double-clicked? Does this work in v2?

It does work (show "to selected") in v2, but not in v4. I'm used to mass messaging with double clicking this way too, it's easier/faster.

(In v4 it just shows the name of the person you double click on, which is unexpected, as multiple people are selected)

This is more of a request than anything else.
With the global playerlist and the way that the tab flashes when you receive a PM, being able to double-click the tab (instead of searching down the list if you have more than one server open) to open the PM would be nice.

Displays correctly for me when I Alt-Tab.

When running in fullscreen mode at 1280x800 resolution, everything is stretched slightly.

This I noticed when hopping from Maloria to Maloria Dev. After going on Maloria Dev form Maloria, I noticed that the heart gani and chat from Maloria was showing up on Maloria Dev. Not on the player, just sitting in the level. If I changed levels, the heart/chat gani would follow me. It would stay at the same x/y in the level. Even if I reconnect to the server, it is still there. If I connect to another server (Ol' West for example) it still shows up.

When switching from the 'Global Guild' tab on the Playerlist tot he 'Event Channels' tab, the refresh button is not destroyed.

Small feature request:
If the serverliser is down, allow players to enter the IP and Port of a server to connect to it.
