Beside several major bug fixes this release also includes the new additions from Graal v2.21:

  • faster network code, less traffic & lag
  • tiles are updated when downloaded
  • the playerlist is sorted, most recent pm at the top
  • the playerlist is only half-transparent now, so you see the player names easier
  • scripts can directly trigger clientside weapons
  • ganis work on the stats layer, animations shown with showani are animated
  • resizing of the window works better
  • the weapon list displays weapons and folders correctly, a memory leak with displaying weapon folders have been fixed
