| My MUSHClient v3.25 seems to refuse to save the port address on any world if the port address is greater than 4 digits.
I have to manually type in the port everytime to connect to 204.176.33.70:34283 (Dragon's Gate). | | Top |

| | I'll fix that in the next version - I think I limited it to 9999. |

| The problem is actually that the port number is greater than 32767, the maximum for a signed integer.
It was writing it to the world file as:
port="-31253"
You could edit your world file (with a text editor) and change that line to:
port="34283"
Unfortunately that change will be lost if you save the world again, however that might be a short-term workaround.
It will be fixed in 3.27 to write it out correctly. |

| I am using Mush 3.26 now, and I am having the same trouble on my Laptop, with the port being reset to 4000 every time i save it (i turned off autosave on exit), but my PC at home doesnt have this problem at all, running the same version. It's set to autosave on exit, plus i save it several times per session just because i am OCD like that, and it always remains the same. Incidentally, i am playing the same game as Kelston; it's that same port 34283.
The laptop is running WinXpPro, and the PC is WinME, i can't think of any other major differences between the two. The world files are identical on the two machines.

| | It should definitely fail in 3.26 - since it saves it as a negative number it will revert to the default of 4000. I can't explain why it works on one PC but not the other, the only explanation being that maybe if the world file hasn't changed it isn't really being saved. |

| Terribly sorry to post bad info, but indeed i do have the same problem on the PC. I only recently upgraded to 3.26 from 3.17 so maybe i just hadnt saved the world on it yet.
PS - Is it possible to change one's PW for this forum?
