Halite Snapshot v 0.3.1.8

I’ve released a new Halite snapshot to SourceForge.net.

First, and very important, there is a known problem where if UPnP is turned off then Halite can crash (quite frequently) at startup. This is a problem in the underlying libtorrent layer and is being worked on. I was going to wait till that issue were fixed but a recent vulnerability in libtorrent has prompted this earlier release.

Anyway to address the UPnP issues that feature is hardcoded always on. I know some will not like this but it is temporary, once the bug is fixed I’ll release that correct version ASAP.

Otherwise a new feature is the shutdown scheduler. Feel free to suggest other functions for that feature but note, for reasons already discussed here, a ‘shutdown when downloads are finished’ or similar option is not planned.

See the forum thread for additional details.

Thanks goes to Tw@in for all his help and thanks to all the translators.
