This mod has grown over the couple of months I've been building it, and now with the release of roster 1.7.3 I am happy to release to you
AltMonitor 2.0. This features some technical improvements, and finally a long wanted feature: Alt detection on character uploads.
A sadder point is that this is likely to be the last big release of AltMonitor. There may be a 2.0.1 or 2.0.2 if there are bugs in this version or to keep maximum compatibility with a possible future release in the roster 1x line, but there will almost certainly not be a R2 version of AltMonitor as an addon. Part of the mod's functionality will return in the R2 core. Part may disappear. I don't know yet myself, but time will tell.
Anyway, the release notes for 2.0:
- Fiddled around with the altlist indentation a bit.
- Cleaned up localization. It's in 1 file per language now, since organizing it like that makes it easier to keep the wordings in sync.
- AltMonitor triggers no longer even attempt to run if its own tables aren't there.
- Added an uninstaller. Basically it drops the tables.
- Added a small change to the installer so it's possible to close the last statement with a ; now.
- Added an option to switch between updating on guild updates, char updates, both, or neither.
- Added a system that writes manual alt entries during character updates.
- Added some fixes from the main memberslist to altlist.php.
- Updated to use message_die rather than die_quietly for install/upgrade messages.
- Shortened update log output (only 1 line per character now).
- Changed default sort to level then name.
