[2.13] Tick Timer Keeps Running When Window Is Disconnected
 
I've used this on dialup, and if the connection to the internet drops the tick timer keeps running.
If I do a #DIS it still keeps running. Checked to see if it does so when I use #DIS while connected to MUD
and yes, it still keeps running.

Yes it should the tick timer doesn't care about on/off line. You should use an alarm with a '-number' pattern to have such detected automatically. Alternately you can use the #TIMER command in onConnect and onDisconnect events.

I'm just using the tick timer to keep from voiding. And I'm used to zMUD stopping the timer when you're not connected. Wasn't sure if its a bug or not. Nor for my use does it really matter :)
