Family is going on a vacation over spring break, I won't be around until the 31st.

There is not, sadly. It only exists through the justice system or an immortal-only command. Mobs cannot do it, there is no mpsever command.

The Underdark Wilderness The Underdark Wilderness (the mappable area existing between the various areas of the Underdark) has been fixed. Previously, a serious stability issue existed which was causing the game to crash, so people were advised quite seriously to stay out of the Underdark. We're cau...

Bard Adjustments For those who are unaware, bards have had some editing done to make them a bit more group-friendly. Bards have been given access to many mass spells which they previously did not have access to, and those at one level lower than other classes. For example, mass bulls strength is av...

Evenings are always better for Thelemas

I just wanted to open up a little bit of a discussion about the nature of evil characters, and how they fit into your roleplay, either as an evil character yourself, or someone who interacts with them. My own personal opinion is that to be a really successful evil character, you as the player need t...

My own philosophy for building the world has always kind of been, surface = easy, underdark = medium, planes = hard, but the planes aren't in yet. Of course certain areas of the Underdark, like the region around the Darklake, are 'easy', just to allow players in the region to survive. I've never run...

Just to acknowledge the point about withdrawing from a faith at any point, I completely disagree. Once a person is established in a faith, there always have been and should continue to be long-term consequences to withdrawing from a faith. There are some fairly obvious reasons why this is important,...

I built much of the Underdark and I can at least say when I built the Svirfneblin tutorial purple worms had an override for the purple worm race, they were set as race_snake because they were newly hatched, so if they're now race_purple_worm then that is a big problem! In any case, I always wanted t...

This was a test spell I made to show what people could do with the spell research system, it shouldn't be on the main port, I can remove it from the skills.dat at the next opportunity.

I think in general we need to look at bigger rewards for participating in events. Coming in first place in medieval tournaments was a huge, huge deal and even defeating a single person in combat meant you had a claim on their armor, weapons, horse, which they'd then usually ransom. People could come...

If someone literally cast an instakill spell (or any) based on a conversation without discussing the PvP aspects, then that's a violation of the pkill rules in help pkill.

I've been involved in a lot of PvP in the past. And once the RP devolves to the point of PvP, the purpose of it is to win. I was invested in some RP enough to actually fight someone, I don't want to lose. Many spells that clerics and wizards have in the 7th, 8th and 9th level are their best spells t...

It also apparently needs a qlog set for it.

She was attacked by the quest mob when she picked up the thing, this area is seriously haunted. Somehow it may have prevented the body drop by the mob. I fixed her up.

Fixing this now...

There's a program you can download that checks areas, but I'm not sure how recent its information is. I don';t have a copy on this computer and I don't see the link, but it was called like fkcheck.exe I think...

Do we still use Area Check? I just let tortoise check the area out for me when I upload it, that tells me my errors right off.

Caster level in code terms is not the level of the caster in terms of the game, like the level you see on your score sheet, but rather a factor we take whereby we translate the MUD-level into a true D&D level. So our level 50 = caster level 20. Thus, for the most powerful mages it's not going to...
