51 * Notify players about room name change: there should be a new message type added to the protocol. ("ROOM", "RENAME", "oldName", "newname"). A possible implementation could be to pdate the Qt-Frontend that it accepts messages of the format posted below at that it updates the room list; after accepting the message the user interface should reflect the name change. So room list gets updated and if player is in that room s/he'll see a notice message in chat about the room name. |
