Me with a few buddies
  • Improve Mudlet documentation, which is not interesting for Mudlet users, but only for (some) developers.
    • Including definitions on internal functions,
    • discussions and decisions on coding style conventions,
    • standard procedures like Release Checklist, update lua function list for autocompletion,
    • This is done by adding Categories like "Mudlet Developer Manual" or "Mudlet Admin Manual"
    • etc.
  • Look into improving a11y (accessibility) of Mudlet client and website, etc.

Standardized error messages in code

Old style, not very informative: 

    if (!lua_isnumber(L, 1)) {
        lua_pushstring(L, "createMapLabel: wrong argument type");
        return lua_error(L);
    }
    int area = lua_isnumber(L, 1);

New style with additional information: 

    if (!lua_isnumber(L, 1)) {
        lua_pushfstring(L,
                "createMapLabel: bad argument #1 type (areaID as number expected, got %s!)",
                luaL_typename(L, 1));
        return lua_error(L);
    }
    int area = lua_tointeger(L, 1);
