3.15 - Portuguese edition

Vadi2

Scripting improvements and Portuguese language in this mid-autumn release!

Scripting improvements

Thanks to JorMox, many API functions have been improved: see the changelog for details.

Less spammy timers in Debug view

Have a timer that needs to fire often and ends up cluttering the Debug view as a result? Thanks to SlySven you can now specify the minimum interval for timers, below which they won't appear in debug:

Timers less than 10s won't appear in debug

getMudletHomeDir() for Windows

getMudletHomeDir() will now return the path separated using a / on Windows, macOS, and Linux now. This'll remove the need to convert backslashes to forward slashes for use with labels while still keeping compatibility with all existing functionality!

Portuguese

We've added a new language for the interface in Mudlet - Portuguese! Thanks to DrAntarctica for doing the translation which is up to 17% now. Help Portuguese get the 95% gold star⭐ by translating it.

Timer suppression is great, thanks. I can get rid of my messy code that turns animated timers on and off.
