The Reed Must Bend When The Wind Blows Across It., posted on Sat Apr 6 12:03:19 2024

Category: Cwc (domain pages)
We've fixed the following bugs in the weapons crafted by Wan Bending Reed:

* They would lose enchantment unexpectedly.

* Their value would sometimes drop unexpectedly.

* The judge command sometimes reported misleading or completely incorrect information.

Note: None of the weapons have had any changes to their utility in combat for customers of Wan Bending Reed.

You will need to su with the weapon in your inventory for the fixes to apply if you're online when this is posted.

I have fixed a bug that caused some players to be locked out of some of the quests in Bois for much longer than was intended.

I have also reset the lockouts for all players for these quests to let those of you who were already affected start these quests.

For creators: I have updated the bug statistics graphs page so it works once again.

For players: I have made the creator bug graphs available to everyone so the curious can now see how many bugs we fix, how many bug reports players make and more! Check out the Bug graphs link in the Creating menu to load it up.

Enjoy,

The find corpse ritual has been updated:

- It now requires a target when you perform it instead of asking at the end. See help find corpse for details on the syntax.

- A bug with some of the distance indicators is fixed.

- It now is clearer when some poor soul happens to have more than one corpse.

- You can now find your own corpse if you lose track of it.

I have updated how you can refer to scrolls by the spell they hold. You no longer have to fully specify the spell name and may just use parts of the name.

This fixes a bug that made it impossible to refer to a Cherry Blossoms in Bloom scroll (or A Cup of Tea and Sake scroll if you had options input andascomma=on).

Existing scrolls will only be updated when they next load, so if you have any issues with a scroll you can su with it in your inventory to fix it.

I've fixed two bugs in the hedgehog command:

* Hidden NPCs and players who can't resist the music will now come out of hiding when dancing.

* The punishment for singing the hedgehog song in Ankh-Morpork is fixed. You will now be contracted if you ignore the warnings given by the Musicians' Guild enforcers.

Enjoy/beware,

Fran!

I have updated how spell casting works with respect to consumable components.

The checks for consumable components now happen up front - before the scroll is emptied (where applicable), GP is spent or components that can be used are consumed.

When specifying which components to use with the using syntax, components that cannot be consumed will generate an error message now.

When not specifying which components to use with the using syntax, components that cannot be consumed (because they are k...
