Mudlet’s new fast display

by | Jan 21, 2009 | Informational | 2 comments

Mudlet’s new display (what displays the MUD text that you see) is coming together very well.

At the moment, it has scrolling, selection, copying, and split screen capabilities – with screenwidth 0 support coming next.

Preliminary tests results show that it is very fast – as intended! Given 14,258 various lines with color, the new display displayed them all in only 0.6 of a second. To compare, zMud took 2 minutes to display the same text (with cMud scrolling through at 20 seconds).

So stay tuned for when the display is finished and in use :)

    Very nice. One thing that always annoyed me about zMUD is how slow it was displaying. And the splitscreen is nice, it’s the one thing MUSHclient lacks display-wise. What about speed comparison with MUSHClient?

    Same as zmuds unfortunately – ~2 mins.

    I’ll post up a video soon.
