24 - temporarily make permanently invisible player visible when
25 he/she makes noise.
26 - fix being able to see through walls a bit.
27 - completely replaced the line of sight algorithm with a variant
28 of spiral fov capable of visibility grades and arbitrary
29 shadow angles, that uses less memory and less code.
30 - the new los code supports arbitrary map rectangles and loosens
31 other restrictions of the old code, supporitng further optimisations.
32 - udpate los if blocksview-objects are inserted in a map, not just when
33 removed (e.g. for summon fog).
34 - create bomb now also works when casted by door traps.
35 - (arch) new torch graphics.
36 - (maps) considerably soften the subway spider.
37 - (maps) made the portgate of navar safe ground, to protect
38 the guards from being killed by players.
39 - no maximum darkness for outdoor maps anymore.
40 - add more hints, fix some messages.
41 - fix a bug: firing rods should tell you something about them.
42 - make light additive even within players.
43 - darken xrays effect a bit.
44 - improve handling of los changes when inserting or removing
45 objects, not perfect yet.
46 - make map darkness signed (formerly unsigned) to allow
47 ambient lighting and centrally manage darkness as an offset.
48 - revamped, fixed and documented the server calendrics, also
49 tell users the current time and data, to improve awareness.
50 - implement proper wizlook flag and handling of wizlook, instead
51 of dumbly just clearing los once.
52 - speed up los code - it's now about 2-3 times as fast as the old one,
53 and has a smaller runtime variance.
54 - daylight/nightfall can now increase/decrease past the natural limit,
55 making them actually useful.
56 - see_in_dark now increases the viewing radius by 3.
57 - implement a fast tiled map iterator and use it for los for a 20% speedup.
58 - remove support for extended map infos - these are not used
59 by the deliantra client and removing them gives us a 10% speedup
60 when sending map changes.

65 - directional casting no longer immediately removes the invisible effect.
66 - magic ears now trigger when used inside the NPC dialogue.
67 - fix overflow in lighting calculations.
68 - negative glow radii can no longer cause total darkness.
69 - allow lookat on spaces where we only barely see, as opposed to
70 only maximally-lit ones.
71 - class selection has been reworked completely and their documentation corrected.
72 - swashbucklers got the oratory skill now.
73 - jump skill was fixed to adhere to all the flags a mapspace has got.
74 - (maps) small fix w.r.t. magic ear in /scorn/houses/wizz.entry
75 - fix deadlock in Jeweler::improve_ring_by_plan.
76 - use Coro::SemaphoreSet instead of our own lock management
77 (which was probably broken, too).
78 - support negative glow radii during daytime, too.
79 - use circular, not rectangular, viewing area.
80 - use minimum viewing distance of 2 in outdoor maps.
81 - negative glow is stronger than viewing area or lamps.
82 - (arch) new darkness spell face.

842.72 Thu Dec 4 22:20:19 CET 2008
85 - (maps) completely redesigned scorn.
86 - "cast light" now works on oneself.
87 - bump max light radius to 9, rewrote glow lighting calculations, fix
88 negative glow radii again (they were totally broken before).
89 - the "worldmaps sometimes are black" bug is finally fixed.
90 - the "player objects are referenced in _GENxx globals" bug has finally
91 been fixed, by not relying on buggy perl internals when serialising.

94 back to the player.
95 - attuned/repell and spell base level system reworked.
96 - rewrote skill cache (last_skill_ob) system and usage - might
97 be less erratic now.

99 (to avoid writing it in early crashes).
100 - pathsync the directory after saving a file for added slowdown^Wsafety.
101 - speed up emergency_save by not syncing every file separately.
102 - no longer reattach perl to every object on reload, it's slow, and no longer
103 necessary since we don't nuke stashes anymore.

105 better error reporting.

115 dragonfire has been introduced for the non-dragon players.

117 - change "weapontype" object slot to uint8.
118 - convert "hide" object slot into flag.

126 and update mapspaces if necessary.
