What A Mission!, posted on Wed Sep 11 14:36:18 2024 | Posted by: Fran | Category: Special | Your dedicated creator team has fixed a number of mission related bugs this month. The most notable are:
* A new keyword, $localtime$, has been added to the alias system. Please see "help alias tutorial" for details, in the new section "What Time Did I Do That?"
* A bug in Pennie Laced has been fixed; it is now no longer possible to accidentally find the required item twice by queueing search commands, and hence it is no longer possible to accidentally lock yourself out of getting the mission ...Read The Rest Of This Entry |
Connecting Securely, posted on Sun Jun 23 08:27:43 2024 | Posted by: Fran | Category: General and Web | The mud now supports secure connections both when playing from the browser with DecafMUD or using a third party client[1].
To connect with a third party client use host discworld.starturtle.net and port 4245.

[1] If the client supports secure connections. Check your client's documentation for support and instructions to enable this feature. |
What's On The Menu?, posted on Thu Apr 25 11:22:09 2024 | Posted by: Fran | Category: Web | I have tweaked the website menu to be slightly more usable if you're using a browser on a mobile device to view it.
If you need to navigate to menu item that also has a sub menu, you'll now have to tap on it twice.
The desktop experience should not have changed in any way.
If you experience any issues please let me know with the command:

The Reed Must Bend When The Wind Blows Across It., posted on Sat Apr 6 12:03:19 2024 | Posted by: Fran | Category: Cwc (domain pages) | We've fixed the following bugs in the weapons crafted by Wan Bending Reed:
* They would lose enchantment unexpectedly.
* Their value would sometimes drop unexpectedly.
* The judge command sometimes reported misleading or completely incorrect information.
Note: None of the weapons have had any changes to their utility in combat for customers of Wan Bending Reed.
You will need to su with the weapon in your inventory for the fixes to apply if you're online when this is posted.

Fairy Tales Now *more* Fair, posted on Wed Jun 28 14:50:32 2023 | Posted by: Fran | Category: Forn (domain pages) | I have fixed a bug that caused some players to be locked out of some of the quests in Bois for much longer than was intended.
I have also reset the lockouts for all players for these quests to let those of you who were already affected start these quests.

Scroll Right To The End., posted on Sat Jun 10 09:16:58 2023 | Posted by: Fran | Category: Web | I've fixed a bug in the DecafMUD client (accessible with the Play Now link) that was preventing the automatic scrolling from working in some browsers.

Visualising The Good And The Bad, posted on Wed May 31 07:33:55 2023 | Posted by: Fran | Category: Web | For creators: I have updated the bug statistics graphs page so it works once again.
For players: I have made the creator bug graphs available to everyone so the curious can now see how many bugs we fix, how many bug reports players make and more! Check out the Bug graphs link in the Creating menu to load it up.
Enjoy,

Recovering Mortal Remains, posted on Thu May 11 17:05:11 2023 | Posted by: Fran | Category: Guilds | The find corpse ritual has been updated:
- It now requires a target when you perform it instead of asking at the end. See help find corpse for details on the syntax.
- A bug with some of the distance indicators is fixed.
- It now is clearer when some poor soul happens to have more than one corpse.
- You can now find your own corpse if you lose track of it.

Dead Letter Update, Part III, posted on Mon Mar 27 12:02:23 2023 | Posted by: Fran | Category: Am (domain pages) | The vague address letters for delivery in Djelibeybi, Ephebe and Genua have been updated to work with the recent skill update.

Less Picky Paperwork., posted on Sun Oct 30 13:58:18 2022 | Posted by: Fran | Category: General | I have updated how you can refer to scrolls by the spell they hold. You no longer have to fully specify the spell name and may just use parts of the name.
This fixes a bug that made it impossible to refer to a Cherry Blossoms in Bloom scroll (or A Cup of Tea and Sake scroll if you had options input andascomma=on).
Existing scrolls will only be updated when they next load, so if you have any issues with a scroll you can su with it in your inventory to fix it.
