we have found a strange problem, when a ladder list has more than one page. For example we had "25" as people per side for the ladders and what happens now:

• People on positions 1-25 can only challenge people from 1-25
• People from 26 on side 2 can only challenge people on side 2

When you go to another page than you are listed on, it will also give you the option to "join the ladder" again.

What it did now was changing the 25 in the settings to 200, so I don't have the problem... but it would be nice, to have the possibilty to show the ladder rankings on more than one page.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Has anyone found a fix for this yet? It's holding me back from using this mod to it's fullest.

Thanks.

Not sure to be honest, it is going to take a long time. Definitely not going to start before this weekend, after that i'm not sure how busy i am, and so how much free time i have available to recode the modification.
