It has come to my attention, that the current release scripts.dll 2.0 is broken in some ways. Setting the mine limit for windows crashes the fds.

We are about to release a new SSCP1 version which included a scripts 2.0 based SSAOW version which also includes this mine limit setting feature. A new version of brenbot (1.41) makes use of this, and sets the minelimit automatically - obviously, on windows it crashes. works fine on linux.

This is rather annoying for windows server admins, because they cannot use a feature that was promised for scripts.dll 2.0 - instead, their server crashes each time they try it.

Confronting jonwil this this issue, he confirmed that it is actually not working. However, he says he wants to fix it for an upcoming scripts.dll 2.1, which is still far away. His reasons for delaying it that it "would probably take too much time". SSCP1 1.3 is coming out this weekend.

Crimson and me think that this is rather unsetteling. This feature has been promised and brenbot makes full use of it. Bugs, no matter where should be fixed.

Also, the ip address fix for Linux servers is broken in scripts.dll 2.0 - which makes 2 fixable bugs for a scripts.dll 2.0.1

Vote yes, if you think that jonwil should fix bugs, instead of ignoring them and let users suffer the consequences

Win32 Server Admins, post how you feel about that.
