Changelog

Issue numbers refer to github issues: https://github.com/lynnfaraday/MUSH/issues

  • 6 (Bug) Can’t Be Over 40 in +age
  • 7 (Bug) IC Time Has Limited Range
  • 26 (New feature) Simple IC Time

IC Time had some fundamental flaws and has been replaced by a new IC time with a simple year offset.

  • 13 (Bug) Install Manager Gets Halted

There was an important bug in the installer that affected small databases. It was fixed by making the install manager smarter. NOTE: You may see “HALTED / RESTARTED” messages when installing systems now. As long as the halt occurs right next to a restart message, don’t worry about it.

  • 27 (Bug) Moderate Wound Modifier Too Low

The moderate wound modifier has been raised, so you shouldn’t be seeing people take 5-6 moderate wounds and keep on ticking (unless they’re -really- lucky).

  • 25 (Bug) Small Wounds Shouldn’t KO

It was previously promised that a single light or moderate wound wouldn’t KO you, but now it’s actually true!
