Ok, I updated the patch on the site to build filelists correct, but I'll need help working out how to do it with searches.

Also if a helpful mod could remove the patch code (not the link) that I put in my post it would be great (i can't edit it)

You know, funny thing is I might have totally forgotten to stop the directory being added to the filelist and searches... umm oops, does the size thing and saves whether the directory is shared or not nicely, guess I'll fix this after my next class :oops:

however if in settings there were little tick boxes next to the shares letting you turn them on and off for all hubs it might be handy. It can be a hassle clicking remove then later going back through add folder again just because you wanted to checkout a few hubs that dont allow sharing of X.

if you want stable code then download 0.306 source from the website, cvs is basically for latest version only, well I guess if releases are tagged in theory you should be able to get them from cvs but website is just easier.

You can't fix locked slots/leechers with such a simple but majorly flawed idea. Considering the client was likely modified to allow slot locking in the first place I doubt it would be alot of extra effort to send some random names from the hubs you're in or from hubs that the op isn't in.
