Subject Sockets 'getting name'.
They'll now get random colorful kender responses and be booted off at 5
minutes if they haven't chosen a name.
I know I know, took me a while :P

Subject Fishing poles in containers
You can now put fishing poles inside quest containers of any type (Jairs,
cornucopias, map cases etc). Just not normal ones.
Thanks for the idea Falk!

Subject Logging Chars
I've made it so that there is another folder in player/logs called
player_logs (lol). Basically there will be a Name.txt that has their logs in
it (one file). The logs still go in the regular 1000.txt log files, I just
wanted to look at individuals logs easier (ie new imms or issue players
etc).

Subject AUTO command
Hey all, changed up {HAUTO{h command.
So that it's more in line with {HTOGGLE{h,
Things turn on/off and you can click them in the {HAUTO{h menu
if you have an MXP client, ie Mudportal, Mushclient, Mudlet etc).
Ps. Welcome back players!

Subject PEEK ALL
There is now the option to {HPEEK ALL{h when in a room. You'll need to have
your peek skill practiced up a bit, and it will...
Peek all, ever (humanoid) in the room.
There's a little lag, except for our little borrower friends as they're
constantly looking at everyones bits and pieces anyway. :)
Have fun!

Subject Some spell adjustments
Summon works as intended now (we had it NOT allowing summoning of mobs
with quest parts... forgot the 'mob' part, so it stopped summons of players,
fixed).
Lightning now does more damage underwater (if you are able to cast it, ie
free action/water breathe), as well as above any 'water' zones.
Magic Missile does a little more 'oomph' at lower levels, with chances of an
additional missile.
Thanks!

Subject FEAR SPELL stacking?
Fear no longer stacks, holy holy smokes. Had a -1500 hitroll on a mob on
another port. Fear no longer does that, simply fear/no fear.

Date Wed Sep 20 15:31:53 2023
Subject SCRABBLE SUBMIT/POINTS
The MudScrabble game now can be used by the players themselves without
needing an Immortal/Implementor.
(You'll still need it for DL words)
Simply type {HSCRABBLE{h to see how to use it.
{HSCRABBLE SUBMIT{h will turn in _ALL_ tiles in your inventory.
{HSCRABBLE POINTS{h will show you the points, and how many you have.
If you DO wish to turn in Dragonlance Names/Characters for 2x/3x...
Turn them in to an Immortal :)

Subject STAFFS (Imbue/Charge)
The 'magicstaff' code has been looked into for all spells. Some stayed
the same, many got a slight 'power' boost (not level when it comes to PVP).
Durations a tad longer etc. Also the GEM cost for {HIMBUE{h is 1/3 what it was.
See also: {HHELP IMBUE{h.
And... because I'm _me_... Superfood exists sometimes in create food :P.
Created food is less filling, more healing. Superfood is MOAR :P.

Zivilyn's massive staff flares.
The Mysterious lantern of Rocigz's resistance is overcome by your staff! <------

Date Fri Sep 29 15:45:52 2023
Subject Ranged Attack Spells
Wearing a Charged Staff will:
Increase the number of Magic Missiles that come out.
Increase the odds for that second HFS WTF Lightning Bolt.
Increase RANGE of ranged attack spells by 1
Knowing a spell VERY well will also increase range by 1
Magic staffs cost _loads_ to charge, but give that back
in durations, damage, extras etc. Keep an eye out.

Subject PETs REPORTING AFFS
Your pets will now 'say' their affects (if they're able to, could be
funny with dumb ones lol).
A Master Thief says 'I am affected by armor, fly, giant strength, and haste.'

Subject Random Spell Components
We've added... a blue marble (see {HHelp Component{h to the mix, and lowered
the amount of components some (let us know if it's TOO low, it was pretty

To use:

Subject PORTING SRC FILES
Hey all, new script in /mud/coder/src/
cpall.sh
Syntax: ./cpall.sh
IE: ./cpall.sh shop.c
This goes into playport/src, and builder/src,
copies the original C file (or H) to the backup directory,
and keeps original date appended to the name.
IE You'll see something like this:
Ok, zivilyn!: Copied shop.c to Player port.
Backed up to /mud/playport/src/backups/shop.c_2023-11-14_1915. Compiling.
Just a nice way to NOT overwrite things, or roll back bugs :)

Subject PORTAL STONES (warpstones)
Warpstones that appear around the world randomly now have the
chance to have more than ONE charge... You'll have to figure
out the rarity, and it's a touch randomized.
Now, if the warpstone has more than it's usual one charge, it
will show in the spell IDENTIFY, as well as Imm's stats.
They now only 'vape' when completely used up.
Builders, you can now also set that 'extra' charge.
