Client can't exit, selecting shut down shuts down server

Postby 90c4 on Wed Sep 29, 2004 1:43 am

I'm using the latest version and can't exit my client - selecting the exit doesn't do anything... but if I select shut down, it shuts down the server. I'm using Heavy Metal, but I'm 90% sure it was doing this with the default skin to. Am I missing something obvious, or is this a bug?

Its not a bug as such but the changes to the resource manager etc have changed the way this happens, yes it does happen with the default skin as well.

The way to overcome it add client commands to the event in the event manager. So where there is mimimise add an extra event for client minimise and for exit add client exit, xlobby will know if you are on a client or the main program and apply the vorrect event.

I only did this myself this week. :)

Thanks. I was hoping not to have to learn how to use the events manager, but I've got pressure from my wife to get this working correctly, so I guess I'll have to!

The event manager is not so bad, once you try it you'll wonder why you didn't want to.
