plMouseDevice::HideCursor can crash if it is called before the cursor is
created. This happens if the client pops up a disconnected dialog before
initialization is complete. I've seen it happen!
Setting these values is optional. If they are not set in the ini file, default values will be used. This way, we don't have to change all our ini files.
plRegistryKeyList::Read assumed that plUoid object IDs are always
sequential. This is not the case since f664e8b resulted in all keys
getting an ID. The problem manifested itself here because there were
temporary materials that were being created and thrown away, causing
object ID gaps.
Due to a complicated set of circumstances, this was the problem that
caused console key input eating on Gehn. Always remember kids, ifdef
include hackery is teh ebils.
Shhh! I'm sneaking this "feature" in for Gehn 18. The idea is that we
should no longer require MOULa installs for the installer to work. So,
after we've extracted the files but before we quit the installer, we fire
up `UruLauncher.exe -Repair -ServerIni=repair.ini -PatchOnly`. This will
download all the standard MOULa stuff, exit, and the install finishes.
Whew!
It appears that the hsTArray memory management really sucks for smart
pointers like plKey. The crash mentioned at
http://forum.guildofwriters.org/viewtopic.php?f=117&t=6291 went away
immediately after switching plKeyCollector to an std::set.
This was overlooked when the consolidation was done in 3027e0605c.
With this fix, the number of frames to be loaded is entirely defined
in a single place. This also prepares the code for a future commit
to remove the necessity of the compile-time definition entirely.
So this is interesting. If you disable Planar Reflections and visit an age with a DCM, you will crash after a few minutes. This is because plDynamicCamMap is sending the wrong plRefMsg to the plLayer. This does nothing (aside from waste time), so we keep sending the ref again and again and again and again until we get some weird heap corruption and KABLOOOOOOOOOOOEY!
