Re: Deep Island "known issues"

I don't know if this is a "known issue", but in the Library the link to KveerMystV does not seem to work. I get the error message pop[up window "... is not available, or does not exist at all".

Hmm - can one "sandbox" this? Set a firewall to prevent TPoTS from "leaving the premises" even if a "bad" age arrives via Drizzle?

Why am I getting a privacy/security/persistency risk warning? And a suggestion to delete the file _socket.pyd?

Re: Offline KI 3.0

After all the Wall did work in UU and I don't remember a single instance of a game being organized. It was so much of a PITA that no one wanted to play.

Re: Drizzle21 (includes UruAgeManager)

Just found and tried to remove the argearchives folder - and drizzle 21 immediately lost all sense of where it was in terms of versions. Restoring the newest files only didn't help.
