Beat And Nearly Feinted? Go Berserk!, posted on Thu Oct 15 16:05:26 2015

Feint and beat no longer work while berserked, putting them in line with other fighting commands.

From a role-play perspective, as feinting is a tactical decision requiring some amount of thought, it makes little sense for it to be available while berserking. The same applies to beat.

The spell Narquin's Mist of Doom now correctly interacts with Chrenedict's Corporeal Covering, just as it did with Chrenedict's Calcareous Covering.

If you try using the rubber version of the spell with NMD though, you may be delightfully surprised.

Players who use blocking as their primary defense might find themselves pleasantly surprised.

Players who fight NPCs with shields might find themselves unpleasantly surprised.

Morporkian businessman Graham Shi - and his Agatean wife, Su - have taken over the lease

for the harbourside fishing supply shop on the west part of Tuna Walk in Bes Pelargic.

Having already managed to push their collusive trade along the bay, the family have used these

new-found profits to revamp the adjoining building as their family restaurant, "The Lobster Pot".

A Morporkian at heart, Graham always welcomes those of ill repute.

A recent discovery of the original research notes of the renowned wizard Chrenedict has unearthed evidence that his famous Calcareous Covering spell was in fact merely a first attempt at a more sophisticated spell.

The Librarian of Unseen University has already replaced the spell by its finalised version, Chrenedict's Corporeal Covering.

Wizards and those who cast from scrolls should be warned that the older CCC spell will continue to work only for a short period. It is advised to replace any lin...

Missing item receipts have been enhanced. You may now kiss missing item receipts located in vessels using a new "kiss receipt in <vessel>" syntax.

Receipts for liquids may only be kissed if they are in a vessel which is large enough for the liquid they will become and which contains no other items.

Some new messages have been added when kissing receipts, specifically relating to receipts for liquids and receipts in vessels.

A new help file for missing item receipts has been added. If you hav...

Canteens, Poison Rings And Similar Wearable Liquid Containers, posted on Mon Jul 27 02:07:08 2015

Some vessels had a potentially abusable bug whereby an unlimited number of items could be stored in them.

Such vessels now have a limited capacity for non liquid items.

This will affect inventory regeneration at log in, especially if you happen to have such a container with a large quantity of non liquid items in it.
