Update of /cvsroot/netrek/client/netrekxp/resources/docs
In directory sc8-pr-cvs7.sourceforge.net:/tmp/cvs-serv31529/resources/docs
Modified Files:
changes.txt hints.dat
Log Message:
Moved message HUD display into local DrawMisc() function rather than updating
local independently, as it was causing problems with double buffering.
Added HUDbuf and showHUD variables to let local.c interact with smessage.c for
displaying messages on tactical.
Made HUDoffset a global variable.
Removed unused mdisplayed variable.
Readded some BlankChar calls that had been removed (no idea why), these missing
calls
were causing message cursor to not be erased properly on
delete/backspace/ctrl-u.
Fixed wrong info in hints about SB phaser cycling.
Message window will now say "Click here to send a message to ALL" until any
message
is sent, then it will be blank as usual.
Left clicking on message window will either a) start a new message to ALL board
or
b) continue current pending message.
Added explanation of what DI is in the rank window.

scouts offer the fastest speed and maneuverability, but are best used for
bombing or taking. They are too brittle to be used for space controlling.
starbases are the strongest ships in terms of fire power and can only be

"to ogg" means, the process of cloaking and appearing adjacent to an enemy
while firing torps and tractoring on to him, with the purpose to kill that
player, without caring about dying in the process.
"to doosh" means, killing an enemy ship which is carrying armies. People often
yell "doosh!" after they kill a huge carrier.
a "planet scum" is someone who only cares about taking planets so he gets good
ratings. This often hurts the team because the wrong planets are taken, or the
planets are taken with little armies and easily captured back.
