UB bug still present in v16, [split by Baronius] Options

[Baronius]

The bug was known for v15 already. Wouldn't it be easier to fix it in UB itself?

Okay, so two quick points:

1) I think it would be silly for anyone to suggest that this site doesn't host good mods (and I hope no-one is making that suggestion). Grey Clan and Tower of Deception are, by common consent, excellent. Improved Anvil has a huge fan base who regard it as having transformed their BG2 experience. NEJ and TS I hear less of, but many people swear by them. Personally I've never played any of them - ToD and TGC are my kind of mod and I'll doubtless play them soon; the others, less so - but I think the evidence from player reports is pretty conclusive. Personally, I participate in these debates partly out of intellectual interest but largely because I think the people concerned have earned the right to be taken seriously. That in turn is largely because they've produced stable, serious, professional mods. Kudos.

2) Since (for my sins) I'm currently involved in moderating G3, I feel some need to respond to comments on it. I do think that those who think there's a double standard are (innocently) mistaken. There isn't, as it happens, a "SCS sucks" thread, but if there was, no-one would close it down. There are, I think, a couple of "fixpack sucks" threads from a while back; there's been at least one "G3 sucks" thread that I can think of, I hope that it's the case that things get dealt with even-handedly and with a very light touch. Example: I split that IA thread because I thought the random anti-BWL vitriol had no place on a thread in "mod discussion" which purportedly was about what people think about IA. The split thread now lives in G3's "random discussion" section, where people are welcome to say what they like within (very broadly construed) reason. The original thread contains some pretty harsh criticism about IA, but hopefully it's still on topic.
