[conquest] Conquest 8.1d (devel) is available




At the usual place: http://radscan.com/conquest.html


It primarily corrects a UDP keepalive problem apparently affecting several people, and a few other minor issues. It will probably become an 8.1.1 (stable) release in a week or so.

Here's the release notes:

Version 8.1d (devel)

        - during playback of a recording, honor the user config
          NoRobotMsgs option.

        - send a UDP keepalive packet every 60 seconds to keep
          UDP connections alive for certain firewalls that seem to
          timeout the connection if there is no client->server
          activity.

          The symptom is that you could get into the game and play for
          awhile (10-15 minutes) then suddenly all ship movement
          would stop.  Everything else would work (commands, etc) just
          no ship movement.

        - clean up some compiler warnings regarding possible use of
          uninited variables.

- When a geno occurs, send a message notifying everyone.
