21 - (maps) fix bug causing the Greyshield and Greysword to have
22 inappropriate item power.
23 - (maps) fix intwell balancing issue.
24 - improve the look of generated books.
25 - make slag no_drop so it can't be dropped from the cauldron.

30 - got rid of motd/rules/news code in C++ part, move motd to it's own tab

34 - create simpler match expression compiles in many common cases.
35 - reduce object size by removing obsolete "seen_by" member.
36 - removed the rather broken make_list_like utility function, taking advantage
37 of the new dynbuf::splice function (which gave an unexpected net win

39 - the server will no longer complain (and subtly fail) when an object
40 being removed from a map causes another object to get removed.

122.54 582.81 Mon Oct 12 20:00:18 CEST 2009
59 - display spell description for spellbooks, rods, wands, potion and scrolls,
60 but not horns (to make them more useful for content-creators).
61 - fix a number of bugs in check_move_on: 1) it didn't update the flags
62 2) it skipped spell effects and 3) it didn't handle the case where
63 and object was destroyed while iterating over it correctly. all this
64 allowed players to sometimes walk onto spaces they should not be able to
65 walk on.
66 - fix an exploit where inscription/marking runes could execute arbitrary code.
67 - examining an object now dumps the serialised object form when the user
68 is a wizard (wizlook).

71 - added complex object matching framework (cf::match), and make altars
72 and pedestals use it.
73 - identified skill-tools show what skill they grant.

76 - improve effectiveness of special foods created by woodsman skill,
77 adding more variety to the different mushrooms.
78 - fix a minor cfpod formatting bug.

82 - clarified that all deliantra-specific parts are under the Affero GPL.
83 - enable the object loader to also dump archetypes.

85 - (maps) put the trapdoor above the floor in sisters/necro_ruins1.

87 or a monster, so it does not have to be specified anymore.
88 - fix a bug where recasting an ability changing spell could shorten
89 its remaining duration.
90 - fix pedestal and floor building with builder.
91 - fix RUNATT attack mode, which was broken before (used e.g. by mice).
92 - fix a broken bow-related speed optimisation by using splay - speed

102
1032.80 Tue Sep 15 20:22:31 CEST 2009
104 - fix the "screen stays black on login" bug and remove debug instrumentation
105 that ultimately was not helpful to catch it :)
106 - split outer_env into outer_env and outer_env_self, and fix
107 all callers to use either one or the other, as appropriate. This
108 fixes the (rather fragile) light spell, maybe others.
109 - fixed an overflow and exploit in the bank/payment code.
110 - fixed a bug in the jeweler quest and added the 'Tome of Jewelery'
111 to explain the skill a bit more.
112 - removed a buggy check for zero attacktype. So that we might find
113 the real bugs in the archs/maps/objects.

123 - earth wall health bar is now correct.
124

136 - added a few party spells (by Job Vranish).

156 /elmex/mana_fountain.
157 - store arrow->slaying in custom_name, to get rid of the spellarg slot.
158 - reduce size of casting_time, move_status, attack_movement,
159 last_heal and last_sp slots, squeezing some more space out of struct

165 didn't work.

167 effects (w.r.t. put_more) per mapspace, to give the server a chance
168 to survive a hundred deathsheads.

219 - considerably optimise shared string implementation by
220 making its null value a compiletime constant.

222 as well as using shstr_cmp to pass shared stringsa round efficiently,
223 for lots of code size savings.

244 - the new los code supports arbitrary map rectangles and loosens
245 other restrictions of the old code, supporting further optimisations.
246 - update los if blocksview-objects are inserted in a map, not just when

272 tell users the current time and data, to improve awareness.
273 - implement proper wizlook flag and handling of wizlook, instead
274 of dumbly just clearing los once.
275 - speed up los code - it's now about 2-3 times as fast as the old one,
276 and has a smaller runtime variance.
277 - daylight/nightfall can now increase/decrease past the natural limit,
278 making them actually useful.
279 - see_in_dark now increases the viewing radius by 3.
280 - implement a fast tiled map iterator and use it in LOS for a 20%
281 speedup, as well as in many other places.

286 as now obsolete protocol versions, simplying the code.
