Padding characters in format()

[Dach]

It seems that format() has stopped reading the padding characters properly. Normally, something like this:

NPC Code:

---

format("okay, the date is %02d:%02d",this.hours,this.minutes);

---

would have an output along the lines of:
okay, the date is 12:02

Now, it outputs:
okay, the date is 12: 2

I noticed this in a server npc that outputs the date to RC, I would test for weapon and level npc outputs, but I don't have the Graal client installed here.

Weird...
(this.minutes.length() != 2? "0" @ this.minutes: this.minutes)?
Use that?

I will need to check that. The format options are not supporting everything from printf, it is mainly coverting everything required for the mudlib, but more options can be added.
