Written by: Ilyos, the Arbiter
Date: Sunday, March 15th, 2020
Addressed to:


- There is now a Top PKer honors for being 1st in %7RANKINGS PK% (as this is just coming in, I will be awarding it to the top 3 in current rankings just this once)
- There is now a Top Xenoloogist honors for being 1st in %7RANKINGS XENOZOO%
- Some learning issues with general tutors have been fixed
- %3Demented Vision% will no longer replace %3Comm Blackouts% on sensory damage thresholds, but will stack beside it
- Curing the %3Prone% affliction now gives a third party message informing those present that the person stood up
- The %3Blind% affliction will now prevent you from using the %7MAP% or getting an updated GMCP Room.Info. Please BUG if you manage to bypass this
- %7RAGE AFTERSHOCK% will no longer re-apply %3Prone% if that was the last thing your opponent cured
- %7GADGETS JUNKJET% now scales off Aim rather than Techcraft
- %7OBLIVION QUAKE% should now properly interrupt channeled actions in adjacent rooms
- Despite it claiming otherwise, %7NANOTECH WIREBLOCK% has always just prevented Wetwiring mending. It now properly prevents all subsystem repair while it is in effect. Let us know how this plays out
- %7NANO MISLEAD% will now also mislead %7COSMPIERCER SCOUT% attemps
- When you %7MWP SMASH% a prop, there will now be indication of people who have been uncovered by this action
- Adding to yesterday's update, %7EVALUATE% will now also indicate if the mob is capable of channeled attacks
- %7HACKING SLICE% will now actually be able to take you through 2 rooms if you specify 2 directions
- Bounties will now complete if the hunter is killing a target while the target is hacking
- Having a custom separator set via %7CONFIG SEPARATOR% will no longer cause the game to prevent you from sending blank lines
