Patch Release Information:

v1.2.1 was released 2004-11-17. This patch fixes only a couple of issues with v1.2 and allows now serverbased replay watching.

New features

Ready button, all player have to click ready before host can start!
The host can no longer immediately start or has to ask every player if it is
ok to start now, all players can just press "Ready" and the host can start
is everyone is ready to go (all players are always informed about all ready states).
Notice: Only real players have a ready button, observers don't got them,
who cares about observers anyway (if they are ready or not).
Fixed problem with online watching replays.
There were a couple of things wrong in v1.2, all fixed and improved now:

Online watching is no longer screwed up (twice as many messages were sent,
everything was going like crazy), server does not touch replay data anymore.
Up to 12 players (but also counting the replay players) can join and watch
an online replay, all chat, voice and webcam features and replay playback work now nice :)
If host leaves, another player gets host status and can control the replay now
Also improved resaving of replays for commenting them or adding a webcam stream to it
Newer replays have also a new identification, if you load older ones you will see a
warning that the playback might be wrong (but it works still ok in most cases)
I fought long to fix all playerlist bugs with replay playback, 2 long nights,
not that this has anything to do with the features, but I just wanted to tell you ^^

Fixes

Fixed problem for some people with the display initialization (anni666, Iradex,
etc. thanks for reporting). Now the older fine working v1.1 display code is used again :)
Fixed: When entering the serial, the button to login is not valid
(e.g. if serial was stored or when entering the first time
Now button state is reseted when showing screen for first time.
Also fixed demo-button/full-button for usa serial.
Also last players are now remembered and stored even if something goes wrong.
Thx to netfreak for helping out trying to find that bug.
Fixed replay saving, when game name contained '*' (thanks for some online guys to create crazy game names)
Fixed problem with serial deletion on client side, server always asked for serial
everytime the player wants to log on (authenticationErrorMessage stuff).
Fixed bombing run/double domination bomb/key reset if unit dies,
is was reseted to start point if unit died while dropping bomb/key off to bombplace or
domination point. Thanks to n.SK)AIL for reporting that.
Ladder games use always 5 captures and no timelimit, player can't change that.
You can always change to fun mode for all options.
Fixed display bug for daily statistics, joining player were not displayed,
also there was a bug with the number of created players and accounts (not all where counted).
Funmode and 3on3 are no longer rated as ladder games! Thx to n.SK)AIL for testing.
Remove ping display for leaved players (by fun screenshot from leba ^^)!
Fixed: windowed mode startup command was changed/ignored when loading was finished (by anni666)
