59 take move_on/move_off into account (e.g. buttons).
60 - display (exit) or (random map) in client for those objects.

80 - no longer use uppercase identifiers for saving anywhere, but support
81 them on loading, for old playerfiles and maps.

85 - replace move_ob/move_object functiony by the equivalent move method.
86 - update to automake 1.10.

107 - do not invoke perl on every user command anymore by providing
108 a comamnd and an unknown_command event.
109 - move mark, run, run_stop, fire and fire_stop commands back from
110 perl to C++, for speed reasons (basically undo patchset 1304).
111 - add a client_destroy event, so we don't have to hook the
112 attachable destroy event (which is called much more often).
113
1142.93 Sat Feb 13 15:52:36 CET 2010
115 - (maps) fix travel to valdor and back.
116 - do no longer by default eval map cod ein safe compartments
117 (this can be re-enabled using the safe_eval config option).
118 - (maps) fix an apparent crash bug caused by broken generstors
119 in lorak.
120 - fix data corruption issues caused by recursive calls to
121 unordered_mapwalk - now every caller must provide its own
122 buffer.
123 - (maps) improve tindervale maps slightly.
124 - (arch) considerably decrease slag ex price.
125 - (arch) fix filth archetype.
126 - extension dependency resolve was completely broken.
127 - multipart objects would cause save_throw_object to crash - it
128 now acts on the head only.
129 - do not try to connect to an irc server unless explicitly configured.
130 - do not expect decltype() to be available in gcc 4.4.
131 - extended the safe perl environment by loops.
132 - (arch) fix "armless cook" facings.
133 - the "experience table" resource item did not have a proper
134 hash associated with it, so updates could not be detected.
135 - fixed poison traps in doors.
136 - player->killer_name did not properly flag the name as unicode.
137 - aggressively mark many more methods as utf8 or octet-expecting,
138 and provide a non-destructive SvPVutf8 variant.
139 - do not allow dragon players to change their title via the settings.
140 - ratelimited jeweler skill nugget conversion.
141 - under high load, the server stopped swapping out to make
142 the server more responsive, but making it impossible to reduce
143 the load by... swapping out. slot queuing will now always make
144 some progress.
145 - improve the quality of the load-avg calculation.
146 - (maps) fixed quest npc in jeweler dungeon quest.
147 - don't fail to write the runtime file if the temporary already exists.
148 - ipo.ext no longer uses (synchronous) CFDB, stores mail directly at
149 player now.
150 - rewrote hiscore code from scratch to use async I/O, store uuid and
151 timestamp and use a tab in the client to increase awareness.
152 - npc dialog setflag/setsatte now check for defined'ness, so
153 setflag 0 is possible.
154 - make install now deletes old extensions, to ease upgrades in the

156
1572.92 Thu Dec 24 04:51:56 CET 2009

173 - (maps) block most vault-type mlab locations, open up
174 imperial converters for anybody to use.
175 - (maps, arch) replace all permanent stat potions by random
176 variants.
177 - (maps) spread gorokh demon styles more evenly over 1..100.
178 - TRIGGER events got passed a garbage pointer instead of a
179 real player object on player changes.
180 - diseases and maybe other things could sometimes reduce the speed
181 to below MIN_ACTIVE_SPEED, deactivating the monster and causing
182 much grief.
183 - speed_left randomisation was, apparently, totally broken.
184 - introduce FLAG_RANDOM_SPEED instead of using the sign bit
185 of the speed slot internally and in map save files. among other
186 things, this gets rid of all the abs (speed) calls.
187 - reduce map file save files by using abridged keywords aliases.
188 - shop specialisation calculation was totally broken.

194 - materialnames would change "randomly" on every load, only
195 set the material when the materialname was not set before.
196 - balancing change, halve rod recharge speed (instead
197 of 4.8s, the standard rods now recharge in ~10s. not a solution,
198 but still.
199 - reduce cpu time used for map saving by >>50% by avoiding
200 the costly flag-checking loop in most cases and using a simple
201 repeat-cache for speed_left.
202 - always delay stats update for players on insert/remove till
203 next tick/command, which saves a lot of cpu cycles on drop/take.
204 - add hint about havign to run to attach unaggressive npcs.
205 - pet monster level was not displayed correctly in "showpets index".
206 - clean up floating point conversions and many similar nitpicks.
207 - fix hanuk altar.
208 - overhaul material system to be much faster, and having less bugs, but
209 still having a lot of cruft :/.

215 - optimise mapspace updates.
216 - cache volume/items per mapspace.
217 - use fabs, min and max consistently (surprisingly for a code size
218 decrease).

222 - fixed crash bug in learn_spell command.
223 - remove all traces of FLAG_NO_FIX_PLAYER.
224 - avoid sv_derived_from calls (lots of hash lookups) when converting
225 from perl to c++.

227 and use it in some "inner" loops.
228 - rename flags to attachable_flags to avoid confusion :=).
229 - fixed jeweler experience output to not be floating point.
230 - added lock/unlock commands, thanks for the patch go to Shawn Robinson!
231 - (arch, maps) introduce inactive_shop_floor and fix some shops with it.
232 - try to prefetch memory inside process_objects, which can give
233 enourmous speed gains.
234 - make some small optimisation to the process_objects loop.
235 - move facedata chksum calculation into cfutil, make server more flexible
236 handling different chksum lengths.
237 - check for hash collisions in cfutil.
238 - reduce face checksum size from 6 to 4 bytes.
239 - don't crash when a map uses empty sound/sound_destroy/face.

246 anymore, due to get_str never returning a 0-pointer.
247 - code cleanup in move_symptom.
248 - removed arch_to_object (replaced it by ->instance ()).
249

251 - some Andrew Madloch wanted, despite being specifically told
252 multiple times that the Deliantra parts additions are under AGPL,
253 lock up the source code of the server within his company.
254 some reorganisations have been done to the sourcecode to make
255 it clearer that this violates the Affero GPL. Help to keep

275 - (maps) define a new whalingoutpost region.
276 - (maps, arch) add all changes to mlab between 2006-08-01 and 2009-10-28,
277 and most archetypes that go with them (without stoning and swallow effects),
278 casino tokens and stock certificates are also missing.
279 - (maps, arch) add a number of minor maps from crossfire to scorn, navar
280 and santo dominion.

293 and to not add a "put your code here" force needlessly.
294 - (arch) fix or improve many plurals.
295 - markers do no longer add a force if the slaying field is unset.
296 - sped up search-items implementation, but it's still horrible.
297 - (maps) bigchests are now properly non-unique, per_player and no_reset.
298 - editor_folder can now be used to override whatever cfutil sets, and was
299 used to reogianise the illogical arch tree a bit.
300 - (maps) import most map names from crossfire.
301 - nuke image_sums/image_info subcommands from the protocol.
302 - fly_high movement gives better los, ignoring blocksview.
