24 - make monster smell logic dependent on their wisdom stat.
25 - put the detah reason into a separate tab.
26 - introduce shstr_tmp for fast temporary shstr passing.
27 - replace one-at-a-time hash by faster than smaller FNV-1a hash
28 when hashing strings.
29 - considerably optimise shared string implementation by
30 making its null value a compiletime constant.
31 - use shared string matching insteafd of strcmp in a lot of places,
32 as well as using shstr_cmp to pass shared stringsa round efficiently,
33 for lots of code size savings.
34 - monsters which breed new monsters shouldn't breed new monsters when
35 they are sleeping: generators now check for the sleeping flag.

372.74 Mon Dec 29 15:23:38 CET 2008
38 - fix a longstanding bug that teared multipart monsters
39 at map boundaries apart.
40 - temporarily make permanently invisible player visible when
41 he/she makes noise.
42 - fix being able to see through walls a bit.
43 - improve look at output.
44 - completely replaced the line of sight algorithm with a variant
45 of spiral fov capable of visibility grades and arbitrary
46 shadow angles, that uses less memory and less code.
47 - the new los code supports arbitrary map rectangles and loosens
48 other restrictions of the old code, supporting further optimisations.
49 - update los if blocksview-objects are inserted in a map, not just when
50 removed (e.g. for summon fog).
51 - permanent invisibility doesn't make immune against making noise:
52 implement a noise system that allows monsters to locate the player
53 when he/she makes noise.
54 - implement a primitive smell system that monsters can use to track
55 players.
56 - create bomb now also works when casted by door traps.
57 - (arch) new torch graphics.
58 - (maps) considerably soften the subway spider.
59 - (maps) made the portgate of navar safe ground, to protect
60 the guards from being killed by players.
61 - (maps) lots of tweaks in and around scorn.
62 - (maps) use special non-blocksview jungle, mountain and
63 darkforest freely on the worldmap, to get gradual sight obstacles
64 instead of total blackout in those areas.
65 - no maximum darkness for outdoor maps anymore.
66 - add more hints, fix some messages.
67 - fix a bug: firing rods should tell you something about them.
68 - make light additive even within players.
69 - darken xrays effect a bit.
70 - improve handling of los changes when inserting or removing
71 objects, not perfect yet.
72 - make map darkness signed (formerly unsigned) to allow
73 ambient lighting and centrally manage darkness as an offset.
74 - revamped, fixed and documented the server calendrics, also
75 tell users the current time and data, to improve awareness.
76 - implement proper wizlook flag and handling of wizlook, instead
77 of dumbly just clearing los once.
78 - speed up los code - it's now about 2-3 times as fast as the old one,
79 and has a smaller runtime variance.
80 - daylight/nightfall can now increase/decrease past the natural limit,
81 making them actually useful.
82 - see_in_dark now increases the viewing radius by 3.
83 - implement a fast tiled map iterator and use it in LOS for a 20%
84 speedup, as well as in many other places.
85 - remove support for extended map infos - these are not used
86 by the deliantra client and removing them gives us a 10% speedup
87 when sending map changes.
88 - remove most gcfclient and other client bug workarounds, as well
89 as now obsolete protocol versions, simplying the code.
90 - optimise and simplify generation of random numbers.
91 - correctly provide a non-zero default density for materials, to
92 avoid crashes, fix other bugs in the material handling code.
93 - fix volume calculations.
94 - fix cfpod parsing when multiple verbatim blocks were separated by
95 newlines.
96 - increase monster detection radius from wis/5 to wis/3.
97 - remove old pickup modes.
98 - remove obsolete disarm and search commands (search wasn't working
99 anyways).
100 - fix a crash when an npc applied a sign.

1022.73 Thu Dec 18 20:56:31 CET 2008
103 - this release is assumed to be very stable.
104 - (maps) radically redesigned and improved tutorial.
105 - directional casting no longer immediately removes the invisible effect.
106 - magic ears now trigger when used inside the NPC dialogue.
107 - fix overflow in lighting calculations.
108 - negative glow radii can no longer cause total darkness.
109 - allow lookat on spaces where we only barely see, as opposed to
110 only maximally-lit ones.
111 - class selection has been reworked completely and their documentation corrected.
112 - swashbucklers got the oratory skill now.
113 - jump skill was fixed to adhere to all the flags a mapspace has got.
114 - (maps) small fix w.r.t. magic ear in /scorn/houses/wizz.entry
115 - fix deadlock in Jeweler::improve_ring_by_plan.
116 - use Coro::SemaphoreSet instead of our own lock management
117 (which was probably broken, too).
118 - support negative glow radii during daytime, too.
119 - use circular, not rectangular, viewing area.
120 - use minimum viewing distance of 2 in outdoor maps.
121 - negative glow is stronger than viewing area or lamps.
122 - (arch) new darkness spell face.

1242.72 Thu Dec 4 22:20:19 CET 2008
125 - (maps) completely redesigned scorn.
21 - "cast light" now works on oneself. 126 - "cast light" now works on oneself.
22 - bump max light radius to 9, rewrote glow lighting calculations, fix 127 - bump max light radius to 9, rewrote glow lighting calculations, fix
23 negative glow radii again (they were totally broken before). 128 negative glow radii again (they were totally broken before).
24 - the "worldmaps sometimes are black" bug is finally fixed. 129 - the "worldmaps sometimes are black" bug is finally fixed.
