The SE4 companion - Why the long wait?.

Perhaps a bit fewer crashes 0.72:

All crash reports and other bug reports are welcome, I'm aware that they exist

BTW, when updating the Versions, just unpack and owerwrite previous files, any settings you've made will remain.

Will change the Favorites page so that you can edit directly in the boxes instead of pressing change and clear, like in PBW settings.

If you hear the Audio Alert, it's Mrs Ruatha speaking (Or actually, we have lived in sin for 12 years but are getting hitched in three weeks!)

Must do: Alert if logging in to PBW fails, now it just shows 0 games
Bug: It says intenal browser busy, too often!
Bug: Readme file button doesn't work
Bug: Comboboxes first line is blank after changing.

I'm using IMAP server for incoming mails rather than POP3. Is it possible to add imap support in future Versions?

I will look into it, have never used it myself but see no big objections why it shouldn't be in v 0.8.
Will have to learbn what it is first though
But I think I've seen some easy examples of it so it's a good guess I'll do it.


(But as of current, the PBW server has shut down it's mail functions )

Request:
1. Option to hide Recent games and Favorite games dropdown lists from the main page.
2. Show turn deadline in pbw games status dropdown list (on the main page), ie:
--------------------------------
Space Empires 101
2410.3
Ready
Turn due: Jun 9, 2:00:05 PM MSD
--------------------------------

Small bug: the clones of existing favorite games appeared in my Favorites list (main program page). When tried to choose the clone fav (it's lower in the list than true fav, usually) I've got error:
"When trying to determine savegame Version of the file:

doesn't exist!"

After restart they're disappered.
----------------------------------

I'd like to say many many good words to you Ruatha for your work. You'll henceforth be known as the Great Ruatha, The Magnificent Creator of the SE4 Companion, The Powerful Master of the History Files, The Intrepid Coder for Overbloated Interfaces, etc etc.

Ruatha,

Great job on this utility! I am loving it so far. One thing I cannot seem to get working is getting it to open a mod. Is this feature enabled? I noticed in the favorite settings it has a used mod text area but you cannot put anything there. There is no "change" button like the others. It trys to open the turn just fine but it will not use the mod directory to do so.

Kudos for the "A new turn as arrived!" I like the sound of the voice.
