Outnet v.2.0
============
Finally, the next release of Outnet.  This one had a few complications and I was very
busy for about a month or so with a art portfolio.  That is why it has taken so long
for me to finish this version.  Although not much *seems* to have been done, everything
has been re-coded.  I wasn't happy with how I coded the first release of Outnet so I
deleted everything and started over from scratch.  This release has much better code
and should be easy for me to add features and fix bugs.  Just a quick note that you
must make sure that you have the level of the game you want to join before trying to
join that game.  Anyway, Enjoy!!  Requires mIRC 5.7 and above.

=========
Whats New
=========
-Added the ability to ping the games in the topic.  This is done with a red, yellow and
 green light indicator beside the IP address.  You can click on the light to ping the
 game again.  It is not perfectly accurate with the Outlaws ping, but I am getting pings
 that are 10 - 30ms off, and that's close enough for most people.
 Green = 0 - 400ms
 Yellow = 401 - 600ms
 Red = 600ms and above
-When hosting a game, you can have the names of the levels you have list in a drop down
 type box so you can just select the name to insert into the topic.  This is turned on
 and off in the Options menu with the List Levels check box.
-Ability for nickname to change when joining or hosting a game.  The default is the
 nickname you are using in IRC but with AWAY tagged on to the end. *NOTE* Once the nick
 changes, you have to manually change it back.
-Quick Join option is now in the IP selection screen.  So is the manual IP enter box.
-Auto detecting of Outlaws install Dir.  Outnet will now find where Outlaws is installed
 and will let you set that Dir or another one manually.
-Totally new Outnet Config setup.
-Outlaws Configuration can now be opened from Outnet.

Thanks To
=========
I'de just like to send a little thanks out to all the people that have beta tested this
script for me.  I'de especially like to thank Kohna, Lefty, DK and Ves for puttin up with
my constant tests in the early stages of the first script.  Also like to send a special
thanx out to Garbo, the hardest working Op there is.

==========
Known Bugs
==========
-When joining a game, sometimes Outlaws will exit and go back to windows.  This *!IS NOT!*
 a bug with the script.  It is the Win98 bug and instead of going to the menu screen, you
 return back to windows.

====================
