Windows v6 beta test

Don't know if this also happens with v5, but comparing an attribute (this.attr[1]) to -1 results in true when the attribute carries a string (this.attr[1] == -1 -> true when this.attr[1] = "foo", for example). Doing this on the clientside. Didn't give it a try with non-attribute variables. Seemed quite strange to me..

It's showing the paused for other people, but not for me when I do showname. It also happens sometimes when I log into Graal and I minimize it as well. On v5 this doesn't happen.

Converting the string to a number will be -1 if it's not a number.

That's the issue: I'm not converting it. I'd understand the behavior if I'd throw the attribute through int() beforehand, but I'm not doing that.

When i try Graal v6, the background is black and i can only see players?

Okay so I was playing Graal Kingdoms on a trial account, and I noticed on V6 Beta, when I was doing the starting quests, you get to the part where you get familiar with Mining. On V6, I was talking to the James guy after I got my minerals to give to him to continue the quest, but it wouldn't let me trade the minerals to him. I logged off V6, got on V5, and when I went to the James guy, I was immediately able to transfer the minerals to him. I think this might be a glitch for V6. Also, when I was noticing casting with the mouse on Graal Kingdoms, the targeting thing is a little higher than the mouse than it is on V5. Just thought I'd post it up here.

Equality between a string and a number implicitly coerces the string to a number and then performs the equality check. It's the usual way for an equality check to work in a dynamically-typed language.

Hm. Guess I've never noticed. Or I just never did it before.

Happens with all signs on GK, so even though pause is disabled, a lot of people look paused while they're walking around and you can move through them because they read a say2 sign somewhere. It's a little annoying for PKing and stuff.

Ok it's a server-side thing, will turn that off with the next npcserver-update.

My profile keeps clearing.

If I zoom in using alt+8 images start to distort, nicknames become blurry and the blackness that is outside of the level area starts to copy the tiles of the level. If I make my Graal window fullscreen when I have zoomed in the screen freezes.

The level being copied in the black happens on Mac as well. Images and nicknames look great though.

Graal v6 (on Windows) is now available via Start->Install Packages on the login server, it is also able to update itself automatically now when we release a new version. This version is not bringing new features compared to the version from last weekend, except the version number and update functionality.

Can you make the nicknames and chat on the Windows client display in bold? Every other client is okay, and I've posted this a fair few times now.

I use the numpad to move, but every time I log on I have to reset the keys because it won't let me walk downwards with 5, what do
