Recent Changes

Written by: Lisaera, the Ethereal Maiden

Addressed to: Everyone


A short update on recent changes:

-Lots of AB files updated, with better grammar and spelling, completed
syntax and all things sweet and sugary.
-The long-running gender bug with getting runes out of rune bags is
fixed.
-Inyoka, which previously was listed as a snake venom, is now properly
classified as a salamander venom. Said salamanders have also now been
professionally re-educated and should properly show dizziness rather
than stupidity when attacking.
-The emotes squeak and pester were remade in a brand spanking new way,
this shouldn�t affect you too much, though the texts may have changed
slightly. No refunds.
-IMPORTANT: The message for when you have attempted to clot but are not
bleeding has changed, be sure to retrain your reflexes accordingly.
-Guards that were previously confused about their filial roles are no
longer so.
-IMPORTANT: The cure message for collapsed lung has been changed, be
sure to retrain your reflexes accordingly.
-All abominable references to an �elixer� vitae have been tracked down
and eliminated.
-The first message the user of tesseract gets when they begin it has
been changed, this may affect your reflexes also.
-Numerous gender issues, including some worrying ones when resurrecting
(wouldn�t want to wake up the wrong one!), have been tracked down.
-Geomancers no longer �bear� their teeth when attempting to open a
chasm, this may affect your reflexes.
-Some learning texts have been fixed, including those referring to
abilities that no longer exist.
-Numerous message fixes in Illusions and Rituals.
-SET MOTTO alone will no longer show Roark as female if the person doing
it is female� aren�t you glad it was Me that caught this one?
-Denizens will no longer, as much as they would like to, agree with
themselves after being empowered.
-Female merian lords and elfen lords will now be known as merian ladies
and elfen ladies respectively.
-Guild log entry for a change in Divine Patron is now, well� cooler.
-Mooncoven and Nightcoven reject will now show the right people being
rejected by the right people. We thought you�d like to know exactly who
doesn�t like you.
-Pinned foot now looks different when you attempt to do things with it,
make sure your reflexes are right, once again.
-The Order power LISTOFFERINGS should now work correctly. Hopefully.
Please don�t break it.

Finally, a whole slew of guild positions were changed, most notably a
lot of the Guild Envoys in order to avoid �double article syndrome�.
