Aardwolf MUD general updates – January 27th 2010 Lasher, January 27, 2010 General Aardwolf changes this update: The effect of the elementalist air/water/fire/earth focus spells has been doubled. Keep in mind these affects include damage done by weapons also. There is a new lbid filter: ‘lbid filter outbid’ which shows items you have been outbid on. Lots of people suggested this or similar so no particular name next to it, but thanks for all the great feedback. We see a lot of new users trying to use ‘speak’ or ‘talk’ in the game so have added a command which displays a brief help when either of those are used. Also added ‘status’ as a global alias to ‘score’. The health inspectors were concerned about food and drink sitting around in a vault for extended periods of time. They can no longer be sold via the long term auction (marketplace). This includes manor pies. As mentioned on mudinfo – the ‘daze’ test on bodycheck was broken and is now fixed. See mudinfo note #1122. Green Death was incorrectly using strength rather than dexterity to help determine whether or not the poison lands. Now fixed. Have changed the effect of the sharp flag some, it should work more often now. You probably wont notice it in individual hits, but anyone using a damage tracker should see some benefit from it. You can now bid on containers on the marketplace regardless of level. Trying to enter a level locked area will no longer set the explored flag as if you actually did enter the first room. Have changed the code that updates notes with bugtracker links to no longer repeat the note on the board. It still appends to the original note and sends a personal note to the original poster. Anyone interesting in keeping up with all bugtracker additions can just subscribe to the RSS feed on it. The auction number on ‘lbid <#>‘ is now validated correctly. Before the change, ‘lbid 45lks’ worked just fine with the ‘lks’ ignored. The ‘elemental’ location in Aylor has been renamed to ‘elementalist’ as the elemental area conflicted with it. ‘Runto setweight’ also works. The academy leaflet can no longer be listed on the marketplace – this item is intended to teach new players the regular auction system and the ‘bonus chance’ code for it also does not work on the marketplace. The vote editor can now accept dates past 2010. I tested it up to 2030, so maybe we’ll have the same problem again then? 🙂 Berserk success message has been changed slightly. Your pulse races as you go berserk! MUD News
