Fixes, additions, and other changes for WarBirds 2.5r2 released 11/16/1998
• changes made require new versions of "bitbut.dll" and "wbdlgs.dll"
• Keyhelp wouldn't switch panes on larger monitors. Now it does.
• Keyhelp can be closed by hitting the same key that opens it.
• WarBirds now works nicely with Kaleidoscope
• added "CLEAR","PAD_SLASH", "PAD_EQUALS", "PAD_ENTER",
"F13", "F14", and "F15" to KeyMap
• reduced flicker in tower menu due to switching pages in setup dialog
• shaved a few more instructions off the message buffer drawing code. Actually,
that's not accurate-- it's almost completely rewritten. It should be so much
faster that it's frightening.
• select dialog in tower draws less visibly
• plane selection now remembers if you were on the fighters or bombers list
• plane selection now handles first plane correctly
• *May* have fixed starting altitude text entry (boy, I hope I did).
• fixed some weird inputsprocket stuff
• Nighttime now works right (or at least better)
• If there are no fighters/bombers available, we handle the situation
more gracefully
• Warns user if a terrain file is missing, rather than quitting
ungracefully
• Offline games are now available!
• HeadToHead now works (Not compatible with versions of DrawSprocket
prior to 1.1.4)
• First-time logins now *really* work.
