Can you pass this on to the KOLmafia devs?
When I upgraded the Noblesse Oblige buffbot to run on the newest KOLMafia version at the time of download (version 16852.jar), it was only a couple of days later that I discovered that this buffbot seemed to have stopped working.
Investigation of the problem showed that, instead of actually buffing people in response to the messages, it was treating the message as a non-buff message and saving it to the "saved" folder, but not actually handing out any buffs.
This had been going on for two days. Reverting to an older version of KolMafia (16809.jar) seems to work fine, and Botty is now buffing again.
But I would like to be able to update mafia sometime because otherwise *eventually* some game change will happen which breaks compatibility with old versions of mafia.
Worse still: I managed to inadvertently delete the most recent 100 messages - after checking they were all buff-requests with a trivial amount of meat (I dealt with all the ones that weren't) so I can't even hand out the most recent buffs manually. :-( And there are about 450 older messages in there which I may have to go through one at a time.
Botty is now back working again, and will buff people properly *in future* as long as I don't update mafia... but I don't want to have to use out-of-date versions of mafia.
