37 - remove support for colour reducing 32x32 images (no cfclient support anymore).
38 - use better dependency tracking for include/keyword.h.
39 - add accept-invitation and suicide to the list of asynchronous commands, so

41 or simply to commit suicide.
42
432.77 Sun Feb 1 16:30:48 CET 2009

65 - make monster smell logic dependent on their wisdom stat.

73 whether the right cauldron is used.
74 - considerably optimise shared string implementation by
75 making its null value a compiletime constant.
76 - use shared string matching insteafd of strcmp in a lot of places,
77 as well as using shstr_cmp to pass shared stringsa round efficiently,
78 for lots of code size savings.
79 - monsters which breed new monsters shouldn't breed new monsters when
80 they are sleeping: generators now check for the sleeping flag.

892.74 Mon Dec 29 15:23:38 CET 2008

94 - fix being able to see through walls a bit.

98 shadow angles, that uses less memory and less code.
99 - the new los code supports arbitrary map rectangles and loosens
100 other restrictions of the old code, supporting further optimisations.
101 - update los if blocksview-objects are inserted in a map, not just when
102 removed (e.g. for summon fog).
103 - permanent invisibility doesn't make immune against making noise:

116 instead of total blackout in those areas.

125 ambient lighting and centrally manage darkness as an offset.
126 - revamped, fixed and documented the server calendrics, also
127 tell users the current time and data, to improve awareness.
128 - implement proper wizlook flag and handling of wizlook, instead
129 of dumbly just clearing los once.
130 - speed up los code - it's now about 2-3 times as fast as the old one,
131 and has a smaller runtime variance.
132 - daylight/nightfall can now increase/decrease past the natural limit,
133 making them actually useful.
134 - see_in_dark now increases the viewing radius by 3.
135 - implement a fast tiled map iterator and use it in LOS for a 20%
136 speedup, as well as in many other places.

138 by the deliantra client and removing them gives us a 10% speedup
139 when sending map changes.

141 as now obsolete protocol versions, simplying the code.

147 newlines.
148 - increase monster detection radius from wis/5 to wis/3.
