autologin.
 
Could the autologin be changed back to what it was: let it try to reconnect till the end of time.

In the mud that I am playing, you may get several advantages if you just happen to be online. But then again, sometimes the mud can be several days in wizard lock, so the connection timers will stop reconnecting.

If I understand your question correctly, you don't really want to change the autologin. You want to adjust the settings in the menu View|Preferences|General. Pop down to Conection and try tweaking it there. Although from what I see it looks like it will give up after 40 tries no matter what.

As this is a suggestion for an added/altered feature it should probably be on the Beta forum.

For a fix that will work now, first turn off auto reconnect. Then, write a script something like this:

#AL atconnect {#T- reconnect;#VAR quit 0}
#AL atdisconnect {#T+ reconnect}
#AL quit {#VAR quit 1;~quit}

#CLASS reconnect
#ALA 30 {#IF (@quit) {#T- reconnect;#VAR quit 0} {#CONNECT}}
#CLASS 0

This should attempt to reconnect once a minute, at 30 seconds past the minute, until you disable it. Note that typing "quit" will disable it even when you aren't connected.

Oh. That did the trick.
I wasnt aware that there is those 'atconnect' and 'atdisconnect' things that you could program yourself to do something.
