Planio CocoMUD client - Bug #155 (Open): Path evaluation in #play function fails if file is on different...https://cocomud.plan.io/issues/1552019-12-04T18:05:56ZVincent Le Goff
<p>The culprit is this line:</p>
<pre>
return os.path.relpath(filename, location)
</pre>
<p>If <code>filename</code> is on a device (say E:) and <code>location</code> is on a different one (say C:), then a <code>ValueError</code> exception is raised. Instead, encapsulate this call and go back to the absolute path if the relative path can't be found.</p> CocoMUD client - Bug #148 (Open): The audio library doesn't shift audio controllershttps://cocomud.plan.io/issues/1482018-12-23T09:36:28ZVincent Le Goff
<p>The audio system works great (and I was even told the sounds were better in this version). However, when we force the system to change the current audio device (if we plug in an external headphone by USB, for instance), the <code>audiolib</code> will keep playing on the main audio device, now muted. Check if there's a better way to find the default device and keep playing through it.</p> CocoMUD client - Feature #143 (Open): Translate CocoMUD in Spanishhttps://cocomud.plan.io/issues/1432018-12-06T09:07:15ZVincent Le Goff
<p>There was a great job done in CocoMUD's code to port the translation to Spanish. There remains a couple of entries that are still in English, due to the fact that no Spanish project existed on CocoMUD. This is now fixed, so I suggest a task with no time constraint.</p>
<p>We now have a Spanish project in CocoMUD, <a class="project" href="https://cocomud.plan.io/projects/es">es</a> . For the CocoMUD's projects, the English version is on the <a class="project" href="https://cocomud.plan.io/projects/cocomud-client">CocoMUD client</a> (the main project), sub-projects are for other languages (like <a class="project" href="https://cocomud.plan.io/projects/fr">fr</a>). It is not possible to alter the language of a project on Redmine while maintaining the language of separate projects, although users can select a default language to see Redmine in a more friendly way. With a full Spanish project, there are two things that could be done:</p>
<ol>
<li>Update the few entries that remain in English, in the <code>translations/es</code> catalog. See for instance "translations/es/ui/dialog/bug.yml" where the message and URL could be updated (for the URL you will need to specify the project ID of <a class="project" href="https://cocomud.plan.io/projects/es">es</a> , you might try various numbers and see if the project is selected when you open the URL).</li>
<li>The next task is more complicated: the wiki pages on <a class="project" href="https://cocomud.plan.io/projects/es">es</a> should be translated as well. Now, that's a lot of work, and I advise you to not do it at all, working extensively on translation isn't the most fun and the documentation isn't that light. The <a class="wiki-page" href="https://cocomud.plan.io/projects/es/wiki/Builds">Builds</a> page in particular is extremely long as it lists all builds of CocoMUD and new features. You do not need to translate it, we could leave the previous versions in English and only add Spanish for the new releases. To be discussed.</li>
</ol> fr - Bug #131 (Open): problème au niveaux des alias et des macroshttps://cocomud.plan.io/issues/1312018-04-16T12:33:38ZClarisse Bachelet
<p>Bonjour,<br />Voilà mon problème :<br />Je joue à un jeu (Vancia) avec plusieurs personnages :<br />Pour facilité le jeu, j'ajoute des alias et macros, toutefois, que je fasse le raccourci ou la touche avec n'importe quel personnage ça fait agir le dernier personnage connecté. J'ai eu ce même problème avec star wars fr à l'époque ou il était encore jouable.<br />Que dois-je faire.</p>
<p>En attente de vous lire<br />Clarisse B</p> CocoMUD client - Feature #113 (Open): Joypad for macroshttps://cocomud.plan.io/issues/1132017-10-25T07:12:38ZMoritz Wolfart
<p>Hey hey!<br />I realy would love the feature to use a joypad for macros.<br />Is this possible?</p> CocoMUD client - Feature #104 (Open): Have an auto-building strategy set for Linuxhttps://cocomud.plan.io/issues/1042017-08-01T08:43:27ZVincent Le Goff
<p>The updater currently supports only Windows. However, adding a Linux support shouldn't be too complicated. It would require building each version, just like under Windows, but it might provide the same level of accessibility. Furthermore, allowing CocoMUD to update on Linux shouldn't be a complicated task.</p> CocoMUD client - Feature #102 (Open): Offer console-like alternatives to configure and manipulate...https://cocomud.plan.io/issues/1022017-08-01T08:36:20ZVincent Le Goff
<p>Although wxPython is the most accessible window toolkit under Windows, its accessibility on other platforms, particularly Linux with Orca, tends to be a bit limited. Lists, in particular, do not render well, and manipulation through the arrow keys doesn't select anything, which generates errors.</p>
<p>Re-coding CocoMUD in GTK+, the accessible alternative on Linux, would be a major hardship, considering both versions would have to be maintained for accessibility. However, it turned out that the AccessPanel was completely accessible in Linux, particularly in the "screen reader support" mode. Therefore, a good compromise would be to allow users to access these areas secured by lists and other inaccessible elements through a console-like approach, with commands that should be quite close to MUD commands with a specific syntax. In fact, CocoMUD's sharp engine could easily be tied to such an interface.</p>
<p>The suggestion for a better accessibility goes as follow:</p>
<ul>
<li>If under Linux, open CocoMUD in its AccessPanel, with no current world selected, instead of opening the connection window.</li>
<li>The user would have to enter the <code>#connect</code> command, with either a world's name (if configured) or a full configuration instruction (host name, port, protocol).</li>
<li>Most settings will need to be changed to allow editing from this interface. Something like <code>#setting lang it</code>.</li>
</ul> CocoMUD client - Feature #101 (Open): Offer CocoMUD's accessibility on Linuxhttps://cocomud.plan.io/issues/1012017-08-01T08:27:30ZVincent Le Goff
<p>For the time being, CocoMUD has been successfully built on Windows, but not on other platforms. Most Python resources that are used are multi-platform libraries. However, respecting accessibility on another platform will prove much more difficult. This issue encompasses both aspects.</p> CocoMUD client - Feature #88 (Open): Place shortcut on menu itemshttps://cocomud.plan.io/issues/882017-01-17T19:40:00ZVincent Le Goff
<p>It would be more than useful to create user-defined shortcuts for some dialog boxes, like <code>Ctrl + T</code> to open the trigger dialog box. The user could change this shortcut.</p> CocoMUD client - Feature #83 (Open): Remove accents from input when possiblehttps://cocomud.plan.io/issues/832017-01-16T22:55:17ZVincent Le Goff
<p>One interesting feature would be to remove accentuation from input before sending the command to the sever. It might be useful, for some MUDs where accentuation would be expected to the language, but isn't handled by the networking system. <code>unidecode</code> can do the trick.</p> fr - Feature #82 (Open): Traduire la documentation sur les triggershttps://cocomud.plan.io/issues/822017-01-13T10:04:39ZVincent Le Goff
<p>La documentation en anglais sur les triggers se trouve <a class="wiki-page" href="https://cocomud.plan.io/projects/cocomud-client/wiki/Triggers">ici</a>.</p> CocoMUD client - Feature #38 (Open): Hide the input when typing a passwordhttps://cocomud.plan.io/issues/382016-10-26T03:41:34ZVincent Le Goff
<p>When typing a password, the input should be hidden, either replacing the input by stars (*) or something else.</p>
<p>This update should be brought into AccessClient itself.</p> CocoMUD client - Feature #10 (Open): Support the NVDA screen readerhttps://cocomud.plan.io/issues/102016-09-19T22:06:31ZVincent Le Goff
<p><a class="project" href="https://cocomud.plan.io/projects/cocomud-client">CocoMUD client</a> has to work with the <a href="www.nvaccess.org/">NonVisual Desktop Access</a> screen reader, including its different navigation modes.</p> CocoMUD client - Feature #8 (Open): Translate CocoMUD client into different languageshttps://cocomud.plan.io/issues/82016-09-18T21:50:10ZVincent Le Goff
<p>CocoMUD will be primarily developed in English, but translating the client into other languages remains a major concern. Volunteer work will be necessary to achieve effective translation in the future. The tools to effectively translate will be provided and documented, to simplify the process for translators without skills in programming.</p> CocoMUD client - Feature #7 (Open): Provide a portable and accessible MUD clienthttps://cocomud.plan.io/issues/72016-09-18T21:47:53ZVincent Le Goff
<p>Whether using <a href="www.nvaccess.org/">NVDA</a> or <a href="www.freedomscientific.com/Products/Blindness/JAWS">Jaws</a> on <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/" class="external">Microsoft Windows</a>, <a href="https://help.gnome.org/users/orca/stable/" class="external">Orca</a> on Linux or <a href="http://www.apple.com/accessibility/osx/voiceover/" class="external">VoiceOver</a> on Mac OS, supporting accessibility would be more than useful. Accessible MUD clients already exist on Windows, as it is, but they tend to be more scarce, if not absent, from Linux or Mac. Although CocoMUD client will attempt to be accessible on Windows at first, it would be very interesting to have the same level of accessibility on other platforms, perhaps even iOS and <a href="https://www.android.com/" class="external">Android</a>.</p>
