Whoops. Minor bug detected - and I'm ashamed that no one else
caught this. That is, Minor in size, major in scope.
You'll notice that instead of creating new zedit command files, it
creates a new version named <zone#>.zon.new. It's supposed to copy it
over, but as per testing, I had left those commands commented.
If you have the source and don't want to go through the trouble of
downloading a new version, the fix is simple. Open World.cpp, and scroll
to the bottom. The very end of the last function (save_zone) has two
lines commented out:
// unlink(temp.c_str());
// rename(temp2.c_str(),temp.c_str());
Just remove the comments and recompile.
A fixed copy has been placed on the website in executable and
source form. I hesitate to upload a new copy to the circlemud ftp
site.... seems like me causing others to do alot of work for a 2 line fix
consisting of removing comment delimiters.
So, I shall assume that if you download the program from the
circlemud site, you've done so because of an announcment on this list, and
I can expect you to be aware of this problem.
v 0.4 - when I finish it, and upload it will actually have this
included of course.
