And as per usual I f*ck something up. This time I busted auto_note. Fixed.

Made it more obvious in the auto_note and search_roles that the Warband is in 8-8-8 enforcing mode, so people might be more ready for eventual kick when joining.

I broke the 8-8-8 formation logic in 0.9.27. Now fixed.

Fixes

• Added the missing zones to the non-RvR-zones check.

New Features

• mDPS override for bombers – treats Bright Wizards and Sorcerers as melee DPS. Toggle in the GUI or with /ab bwsmdps.
• Same-race warband – restricts the warband to the leader’s race, with matching updates to auto_note and search_roles. Toggle in the GUI or with /ab restrictrace.

And fixed b0rked .init.

Was missing a couple of city-zones-id's.

As usual I manage to sneak in a bug. Fixed. Bleh.

Fixed typo regarding the new/returned feature.

2025-04-13: Made the /ab pr setting visible in gui on the Tools-tab. Reintroduced the ability to not allow stealthers (wh/we's) into the wb (disabled by default).

Fixed bug.

Added some color to the wblead name when advertising for others. Also some other small fizes.

Remade /ab searchroles (and the gui version on the tools tab) so it can be used even if youre not the warband-lead, to make it easy to have non-wbleads to advertise for needed roles in the warband. Also some other small fixes.

Bah, managed to get alot of xml-errors and break another function in 0.9.17. Now fixed. Loads without errors.

2025-04-09: More customization, splash of color in channel outputs, and extra icons sprinkled in.

2025-04-08: Improved the autonote and /ab searchroles functions for clearer role search. Added warband leader location to search messages when using /t4 or /5. Fixed GUI bugs where certain flags were not displaying correctly.

Added the /ab searchroles -functionality to the GUI, on the Tools-tab.

Remade the auto-note and /ab searchroles message, should now only write relevant info, so no more advertising for 0 of some role.

Fixed bug with autonote going out even though warband is full.

2025-04-06: Introducing DPS Weighting, an optional feature for automatic 8-8-8 warband balancing. Leaders can now define specific targets for Melee (MDPS) and Ranged (RDPS) counts within the 8 DPS slots.

Toggle the feature using /ab dpsweight [on|off]. Set limits with /ab setdps <mdps_count> <rdps_count> (counts must sum to 8). Can also be set within the GUI. If disabled (default), AutoBand continues to balance the 8 DPS slots without distinguishing between melee/ranged types, retaining previous behaviour.
