Some suggestions for the File logging.

1st) Fix the line skipping bug that does not record names starting with * or ^ (thx FLAB) .
2nd) Detailed suiced in the kill-logs: eg. If the players fall in a hurting poly, the Log would say:

...
--- 05-02-26 14:05:29
musornik
musornik
Hurting Poly
...

Or

...
--- 05-02-26 14:05:29
musornik
musornik
Deadly Poly
...

I e-mailed MM about the line skip bug when I first found it last year, so far he hasn't fixed it... maybe he just forgot. It wasnt hard to write an algorithm to fix damaged logs (as best as possible).

btw it skips lines with names starting with ^ or *

As for suicides, they used to just say "Himself" as means of suicide, but i recently suggested that he have the dedicated server once again log the weapon.

If he does put in more detailed suicide information, I hope he releases a full list of what possible suicides there are so that any stats scripts can expect all of them.

I'd rather see the stability of the linux binary go up first :)
