When making a timer, it works fine, until I quit and reload.

This is what I get :

Line  572: Invalid character ',' in numeric attribute named 'second' (timer not loaded)



and this is the world file :

<timers
   muclient_version="4.19"
   world_file_version="15"
   date_saved="2008-01-19 19:51:37"
  >
  <timer enabled="y" second="1,00"    send_to="12"
>
  <send>Note("Test")</send>

  </timer>
</timers>


I suppose that comma should be a dot, but why does it saves it with a comma to begin with ?

Hehe. That's the same bug I already had Nick fix for the plugin required-version numbers.

I save floating point numbers supposedly with a dot, but the C libraries try to be smart and say "that is currency", and if you are in France or Holland or such like, it changes the dot to a comma.

Upgrade to version 4.20 or higher, that changes the comma back to a dot:

For now manually edit the world file with a text editor and fix any such places.

Doh, silly me, should have checked for newer versions beforehand.

Keep up the good work, Nick, MushCLIENT is awesome.

I've just upgraded from version 4.07 to 4.37.
Every thing looks great, but for german users there is still a timer-problem with commas and dots :\

If I enter "0,6" in the field "second", the timer works fine. When I save it, it looks like this (dots instead of commas):

<timers>
<timer enabled="y" second="0.60" offset_second="0.00" send_to="10"
group="kampf" >
<send>KICK</send>

</timer>
</timers>

But when I load the timer, I get this message:

Line 2: Timer for 'every' time cannot have zero interval (timer not loaded)

Changing the seconds to "1,2", the timer is saved correctly (second="1.2") but loaded as "1" second (no decimals)

Any suggestions?
Or will I have to stay with Version 4.07?

In confirm that if I switch my regional settings to German I can reproduce that problem. Why, I am not sure, because I don't have access to the source code just now.

I'll look into that in a couple of days, sounds like a bug.

Having the same problem. Fixed yet? Haven't been able to find anything on the forum.

I'll try to work around using a timer in my world file, but I'd rather keep all of my stuff in plugins.

Sorry for reviving this thread, but I prefer it to creating a new one ^^
