Logging

How to start logging
At the bottom right of your Mudlet window there is a little display showing network latency and line processing speed, alongside which is a number of buttons. One of the buttons, as shown below, is a blue folder with a green arrow, and when toggled on displayed a red 'X' overtop.

While activated, Mudlet will log all output (including modification by triggers, such as gagging etc, although it seems to be not perfect) of the designated type, i.e. plain text or HTLM, to your 'log' folder inside the Mudlet profile directory. Example path to log files may be "C:\Users\Shakralay\.config\mudlet\profiles\Avalon_RPG\log\" with a file such as "2017-06-30#01-16-47.html" if using HTML logging option.

When to log
Some players prefer to log only during combat, and other such as myself log the entire time, so that one may arduously find information for clarification if needed. While this suits me, it does create many and larger log files (large being near 100MB for a day or two, not huge size wise but very large to display in a text editor), which have to be dealt with specially, covered more in the Backup section of Using Mudlet.

Logging Options
There are two options that should be considered when logging, whether to use HTLM or plain text, and if to append time stamps or not. Both of these options are checkboxes under the "General" tab in preferences/settings.
 * I suggest always using HTML vs text; while the file sizes are larger (but still small by today's standards, 10's of megabytes), the ability to retain colouring is immensely useful and also allows you to display your logs in your browser of choice (Chrome handles display large log files particularly well, even if it takes a couple minutes for it to load and parse the entire file).
 * Timestamps are a personal preference, but more information is more useful, so I would suggest keeping timestamps on, as you can see timing in combat and such.
