RSW version 0.91
Posted: Mon Sep 10, 2007 5:29 am
This is a meaty release. The big news in this one is the new "Export / Share" menu: easily share the world information of your choosing with your allies, with just a few mouse clicks. You can even lie about certain details if you're that sort of person.
One of the options in the export window is "include data supplied by other players", which is intended to differentiate between world data downloaded from the server, and that received from another player (or imported from an xml file). Since previous versions of the client didn't make this distinction when importing data, if you have ever previously imported any world data directly into the client, that data will always be exported regardless of the setting of "include data supplied by other players". You can correct this by deleting the game from the client game list, and allowing it to fully redownload (then importing the xml file again).
