[CF-Devel] PATCH fixing town portal bug if remembered map couldn't be loaded

[crossfire-devel-admin at archives.real-time.com]

Hi!

If you remembered a position with town portal and the map isn't available any
more, you get a message "Something strange happens.\nYou can't remember where
to go!?".
But after that, the force object marking the lost location isn't removed from
the player, so he gets this message each time he casts town portal, from now
on. Several players on metalforge are already affected by this.

The attached patch removes and frees the relevant force object, so that the
next time town portal is cast, the player will remember a new position.

Bye
Jochen
