39 - display spell description for spellbooks, rods, wands, potion and scrolls,
40 but not horns (to make them more useful for content-creators).
41 - fix a number of bugs in check_move_on: 1) it didn't update the flags
42 2) it skipped spell effects and 3) it didn't handle the case where
43 and object was destroyed while iterating over it correctly. all this
44 allowed players to sometimes walk onto spaces they should not be able to
45 walk on.
46 - examining an object now dumps the serialised object form when the user
47 is a wizard (wizlook).
48 - party spells didn't work all that well.
49 - display the duration of change_ability spells when examining them
50 (missing: protection spells, but they are a hack...).
51 - fix a minor cfpod formatting bug.
52 - do not talk about the hintmode so much - die-hards are expected to find
53 the hintmode setting on the settings page.
54 - enable the object loader to also dump archetypes.
55 - (maps) fix guild teleporters to Pupland Terminal.
56 - (maps) put the trapdoor above the floor in sisters/necro_ruins1.
57 - force the initial face when loading an object that is time-animated
58 or a monster, so it does not have to be specified anymore.
59 - fix a bug where recasting an ability changing spell could shorten
60 its remaining duration.
61 - fix RUNATT attack mode, which was broken before (used e.g. by mice).
62 - fix a broken bow-related speed optimisation by using splay - speed
63 up splay operations as well.
64 - use NDI_CLEAR for the body command, and make it use observe.
65 - implement introspection data for C++ classes (%REFLECT).
66 - (arch) add name_pl fields for building materials.
67
682.80 Tue Sep 15 20:22:31 CEST 2009
69 - fix the "screen stays black on login" bug and remove debug instrumentation
70 that ultimately was not helpful to catch it :)
71 - split outer_env into outer_env and outer_env_self, and fix
72 all callers to use either one or the other, as appropriate. This
73 fixes the (rather fragile) light spell, maybe others.
74 - fixed an overflow and exploit in the bank/payment code.
75 - fixed a bug in the jeweler quest and added the 'Tome of Jewelery'
76 to explain the skill a bit more.
77 - removed a buggy check for zero attacktype. So that we might find
78 the real bugs in the archs/maps/objects.
79 - Fixed enabling torches with lighters.
80 - (maps) Added Heaven Town region.
81 - (arch+maps) Fixed & normalized warriors on map
82 /quests/peterm/CTower/Barracks.
83 - fix the light spell (and possibly diseases and other lights).
84 - (arch) The clawing skill didn't have the physical attacktype.
85 - (maps) make the greenway accessible again - this bug was introduced
86 a long time ago, and similar cases are still to be found in the maps.
87 - make the socket_timeout configurable in the code (but not yet for users).
88 - earth wall health bar is now correct.
89
902.79 Tue Jul 28 00:56:36 CEST 2009
91 - IO::AIO chaged to using eventfd internally - updated server to not
92 freeze with IO::AIO anymore due this change.

94 - allow a spell argument for dimension door.
95 - move shop item listing and some otherstuff into the info tab.

100 (by Job Vranish).
101 - added a few party spells (by Job Vranish).
102 - use a common message dynbuf.
103 - destroying tear down objects will now use the full hp range
104 for animation and will only destroy/lastframe when hp < 0.

120 - (arch+maps) added rate limited converter and adjusted
121 /elmex/mana_fountain.
122 - store arrow->slaying in custom_name, to get rid of the spellarg slot.
123 - reduce size of casting_time, move_status, attack_movement,
124 last_heal and last_sp slots, squeezing some more space out of struct
125 object, also declare expmul as constant 1.0, as it isn't used
126 anywhere.
127
1282.78 Sun Apr 5 20:04:29 CEST 2009
129 - fixed bug in alchemy, where finding the right object for enhancements
130 didn't work.

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

181 when hashing strings.

183 whether the right cauldron is used.
184 - considerably optimise shared string implementation by
185 making its null value a compiletime constant.
186 - use shared string matching insteafd of strcmp in a lot of places,
187 as well as using shstr_cmp to pass shared stringsa round efficiently,
188 for lots of code size savings.

210 other restrictions of the old code, supporting further optimisations.
211 - update los if blocksview-objects are inserted in a map, not just when

237 tell users the current time and data, to improve awareness.
238 - implement proper wizlook flag and handling of wizlook, instead
239 of dumbly just clearing los once.
240 - speed up los code - it's now about 2-3 times as fast as the old one,
241 and has a smaller runtime variance.

245 - implement a fast tiled map iterator and use it in LOS for a 20%
246 speedup, as well as in many other places.
