Considering your penchant for certain types of nicknames I'm surprised they don't already have STDs.
*Tinker* Posted Sep 30, 2008, 1:48 pm	did someone say Bugs! hope soon
*sam* Posted Sep 30, 2008, 2:07 pm	The patch also adds an auto-afK feature. I'm still debugging the squads 'ready list'. edit: ok, seems to work now.. far more of an effort than it should have been; hopefully will be a useful feature... edit2: bugs, yeah... hmm.. I'd like to get stuck into something substantial like that.

*Zothen* Posted Oct 2, 2008, 1:48 am	Yes, to the pillory with him! Bring tar and feathers! Oh, and auto-afk is cool, but please dont let it jump in when im in and event, cos Im really not afk from the lobby! Guess you already know Sam, but theres a button called "Lobby" under the chat window in an event!
*sam* Posted Oct 2, 2008, 8:43 am	The auto-AFK actually looks at all chat, Zothen, including in-event stuff. I guess it should also consider actual submitting of moves in-game as meaning that you're not AFK?
*Zothen* Posted Oct 2, 2008, 12:41 pm	Why dont you simply check for the "in event" state? If (player state) != inevent set player state "afk" Acutally you can omit the afk-check at all when a player is in an event...
*Zothen* Posted Oct 2, 2008, 2:48 pm	Ah Sam, auto-afk jumps also in if you dont type in green but chat via IMs.
