Automated Multiplayer Updates/2022 March

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Slight tweak to +pet keeping the belly rubs chaste, friendly and non-kink-specific, as originally intended witht he command."

Dog Song says, "A new form has been sighted roaming the second-floor halls of Hotel Oblivion, the Masked Bandit."

The Hammer, the Anvil and the Critter squees, "Calming the Storm had a bunch of typos in its description. No idea why, but they were resolved."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Bug in Masturbate command fixed."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Slight tweak to ScentEx (can now add support of target pronouns, not just those of teh scenter.)"

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Fuck/Femfuck now shows the helpfile if you put in no parameters."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Pot's recorded poses will now be prepended by the poster's name for resolving confusion of who's posted recently."

Dog Song says, "Minor changes to powers on monsters. Masked Bandit: Skitter, Tail Flip -> Blade Flurry, Headshot (representing the weapons the infection... uh, 'grows'). Sexy Exosuit: Superior Fist -> Scythe Sweep (more accurate to the blade-arms)."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Slight update to mark #help, adding in color for commands."

The Hammer, the Anvil and the Critter squees, "Serenity description updated, it no longer mentions a game system currently no longer present within the game."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Added a little extra clarification to Serenity on its effect on what it doesn't do."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Minor bug from last +tentacle update fixed."

The Hammer, the Anvil and the Critter squees, "The Hell Raiser class has been marked for a rework. Nobody is currently using it, but do avoid doing so until it is touched up."

The Hammer, the Anvil and the Critter squees, "Hell Raiser has been rethemed and toned down from what was essentially a fire flinging soul-sucking hellspawn into something more tame and less... Roleplay-breaking. Its combat skills were significantly changed, terminating the support part of the class and putting it in like with the dedication it hails from. The Hellhound. 4 out of its 6 total class combat skills were reworked and given new purpose, also tied together such they work off of each other, rather than each one being a different version of "I cast fire." It has additionally been given a theme more in-line with the dedication of origin, and structured in a way that makes it much more desirable for offclassing, especially for builds that love Negative and Heat damage. Hopefully the new look and feel will be to the liking of more folks, as its previous state was being used by a total of... no one."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Minor bug in +kinks remedied. +kink <shorthand> will show you the proper entries."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Soaking kink added under General."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Alright, the kinks command is all updatified and cleaned up."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Part of the update is it showing the shorthand version of kinks and categories at the bottom when displaying for one."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "All infections that have a skin mutation now have their longdesc set. Sure, it's the desc with " flesh." tacked on, but it's done!"

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Slight update to the List Edges command. It now supports no-color indicators of which you've gained and which you haven't. Also, you can do a #short version to only list edges you haven't yet purchased."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "list <perks|quirks|flaws> also given #short and colorblind support."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Slight update in Ball Size. It's CLOSER to human average for size 5, now. Closer, but still above because it'd be a VERY dramatic change to put it at actual human average (1/4 length rather than 1/2 length of what it was, which would be 1/64th volume rather than 1/8th volume)"

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "WS's (WhoSpecies's) Sex field lengthened to accomodate for the various longer sets, like Female Herm and Hermaphrodite and the like."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "New WS and WI updates. You can now sort how they display, both player order and flag order."

Chinthliss says, "Moved the check for proficiency badge rewards out of the code for getting a proficiency and into a regular background pulse. Shouldn't make a noticeable difference to most people but fixes some odd stalls."

Chinthliss says, "Fixed a typo that prevented the badge for having all doctorates being given out. If you're eligible, it'll be rewarded next time you check 'sheet'."

Dog Song says, "Fixed a grievous bug in the Unpredictable modifier. It now correctly adds +30% multiplicative Status Mag instead of +30 additive Status Mag (no more free 30 DamageImmunity). Credit to Ascii for finding and reporting the bug."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Slight visual changes in layout for +mmenu's Monster Maker Menu."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "+help theme/killing added. Short, but to the point."

Changed the Balls field in fex saying "Balls: 2(set to 2)" to "Balls: 2" since the balls property is now 1:1 with actual ball count."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Some design edits to the in-game +mmaker, including adding in some size/groin support within the Preview in the program."

Avatar says, "Item (1646918610) placed onto the poll board by Nuku, called 'Combat Nature. +poll/view Combat Nature to look at and vote in this poll."

Chinthliss says, "A bunch of connection notifications weren't running (ticket status, bboard status, running polls, adventuring group motd, etc) and have been restored. Making a note of in case there's something in the smorgasbord of notifications that no longer should be."

Chinthliss says, "Fixed an issue where the perks page would crash if you had previously deleted perks."

Nobody Expects The Inutt says, "+pregtime once again shows fertility status for both males and female (and any combination thereof), and has some slight improvements to pregnancy display."

Nobody Expects The Inutt says, "Genital size comparison in fuck command updated to no longer tell people their cock is inadequate when it's approximately the same size as the cunt it's being inserted into (other orifices aren't tracked well enough for comparisons). The thresholds for each size description may need tweaking as a result, so feedback appreciated."

Nobody Expects The Inutt says, "Slight adjustment to the licker - it now considers the *visible* number of bodyparts when determining how many you can lick, not the *actual* number. TL;DR: You probably won't notice a difference, but mentioning it in case you do."

Nobody Expects The Inutt says, "With a great rending of flesh the universe quite literally tears everyone a new arsehole as their ass cheeks are split in twain, revealing the cleft between. The licker now considers everyone to have two butt cheeks per butt instead of one."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Tags code has been updated with a revision to speed it up. Success!"

Chinthliss says, "Minor cleanup of boxutils so that it defines public functions in an up to date manner. Shouldn't effect anything but noting in case it does."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Bugs in Mlotto code borking winner name and amount won now fixed."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Small bug in +pet when turning it #off and #on and an extra message popped up after the disable/enable message fixed."

Nobody Expects The Inutt says, "+lotto command typo fixed, now it shows you the full info again."

Nobody Expects The Inutt says, "Obsolete eqset/* commands disabled. In the unlikely event that anyone was still using them, please contact staff to have things transferred over to the replacement."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Coasting through the waters around the island, the streamlined figure of the Blue Shark has been sighted near Saltpeter Isle."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "The last Update brought to you by Stretch Goals, the letter G, the number 27, and viewrs liek you."

Chinthliss says, "Command to control avatar support added - 'avatars #on' will turn it on. At the moment requires a beta version of Beipmu."

Nobody Expects The Inutt says, "duty push will no longer spend your patrol points if you're still on cooldown, and will tell you how much longer you have to wait before doing it again."

Nobody Expects The Inutt says, "Several gender related perks have been renamed: Always Male -> At Least One Penis, Always Female -> At Least One Vagina, Male Preferred -> No Vagina, Female Preferred -> No Penis, Neuter Preferred -> No Genitals, Herm Preferred -> Always Herm. Descriptions are currently being tidied up by [Song], but they should be functional in their new form now. Please report any issues."

Dog Song says, "Updated all merit descriptions, gear descriptions, and multiplayer wiki pages to reflect the changes from the update to genital lock naming conventions. Please report any omissions you find."

Dog Song says, "Added additional words to the genderless infection suffix removal list: gal, boi, shemale, dickgirl. This changes appearances like "Male Brown Bear Shemale" to "Male Brown Bear", "Male Gel Gal" to "Male Gel", "Female Usagi Boi" to "Female Usagi", and more."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Bug in #sortview for ws fixed."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Perks/+Jnote viewing on other players made a bit nicer and better sequenced, both in wording and function."

Nobody Expects The Inutt says, "Following the renaming of perks recently, a caching issue has been identified. All relevant caches have now been forcibly updated, and gender related perks should now be accounted for correctly again. Please continue to report it if they don't."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Size/groin will no longer display an item if it is size 0/lacking a size value."

Nobody Expects The Inutt says, "Comm system channel list (from channels/ncomm #list) updated to include a non-colour based indicator for whether or not you have a channel enabled or not, and a brief explanation of what the colours mean."

Nobody Expects The Inutt says, "The +adept command has gained the ability to target individual penises and vaginas, letting you easily change their mutation individually with +adept shift cock1=<form> and similar. Note that your first penis/vagina does not require a number after it (+adept shift cock=<form>). +coyote will follow if no bugs are found in the new code."

Avatar says, "Poll 'Combat Nature' has ended. +poll/cview Combat Nature to see the results."

Nobody Expects The Inutt says, "The +coyote command has now joined +adept in being able to target specific penises and vaginas for mutation."

Nobody Expects The Inutt says, "Apologies for the temporary offline comms - it's fixed again now"

Nobody Expects The Inutt says, "After much temporary borkage (sorry about that), the comm system has been restored. Setting titles for comm channels is now done with <channel> #defaulttitle <title here>, eg; pub #defaulttitle Background. pub #title Background will set a title just for pub, and pub #title clear/pub #defaulttitle clear will un-set your channel specific title or default title, respectively. pub can be replaced with any channel name, as usual with the comm system. pub #titles will list all of your currently set titles. These new commands replace the previous +badge/title and +forms/title commands. +mako/title remains as-is, to keep the distinction between paid for titles and normal ones."

Chinthliss says, "Badge system replaced. Functions the same but now no longer suffers from noticeable slow down on players with lots of badges. '+badge #help' for more information. The old command (and pre-conversion data) still exists as +oldbadge for the next week, in case anyone wants to check/show missing entries."

Chinthliss says, "Oop, didn't realise +oldbadge was so particular about its command name. Tweaked it so it's actually usable. :)"

Nobody Expects The Inutt says, "Wildly Famous and Merit Badge perks restored to functionality following the recent comm system updates. Rejoice random title enjoyers!"

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "The #title and #defaulttitle parfameters shoudl now accept your Mako-purchased titles. +title list to look at your permanent mako titles, and then <channel> #defaulttitle/#title <your permanent title> to set it!"

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Should be able to refer to ** titles without the ** when using the title parameters."

Dog Song says, "Made a variety of edits to the Flexible Survival wiki. The "Flexible Infection Primer" page has been renamed to "Flexible Survival Primer" and received an editing pass for clarity and conciseness. The "Newbie Primer" page now correctly mentions that RSX is in Fairhaven and has had other outdated information removed or changed. The "Proficiencies" page now uses the updated description for the Comprehension skill (mentioning Breadth of Experience instead of Jack of All Trades). Please let us know what other specific pages contain outdated or unclear information if you notice any."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Some updates done with wi, including updating #help display, removing non-reversibles on some flags and adding a couple new flags (Feminine Biased and Masculien Biased)"

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Tagged Chimera Serum hs been added because we love you all. Same spot, up from the Zephyr Lobby!"

Avatar says, "Item (1647807422) placed onto the poll board by Song, called 'Jnote List Trust Level. +poll/view Jnote List Trust Level to look at and vote in this poll."

Nanomachines Song says, "Cleaned up the description of the Clothing recipe."

Boopable Coder Inutt says, "Fixes made to fluid decay - your fluid filling should now decay properly over time unless its exit orifice is plugged, in which case it'll stay put."

Boopable Coder Inutt says, "The +fluids command has received a couple of minor fixes, and also now shows approximately how full each filled body part is."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "New Help File: +help kemonomimi"

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "When using femfuck, and you've an active Rainmaker, you will produced a Fill of the appropriate fucktype with your fem-ejaculate."

Boopable Coder Inutt says, "+size now runs faster for those with large numbers of breasts, at the expense of losing a feature that lets you have a different number of breasts for milk production purposes than are visible on your player. (which wasn't used anyway)"

Boopable Coder Inutt says, "Experimantal mav filter added to comm system (disabled by default). ncomm #mavfilter on|off to enable or disable it across all channels, or pub #mavfilter on|off|default to enable, disable, or use the global setting for a per-channel filter. Currently it only detects things that look like pages and very long posts."

Boopable Coder Inutt says, "Mav filter sensitivity turned down a bit, no longer considers everything to be a mav. There's also only one global setting for it now, and no per-channel setting."

Boopable Coder Inutt says, "Auction channel updated to the current comm system, titles should now work on there too."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Bug in in-game dedication fixed. You can now dedicate properly."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "All badge-related fixes shoudl be in place."

Same Old Song says, "The smell command has received a variety of display improvements. Changes made by Glitch: Custom scents are no longer highlighted brown, scents now consistently have a space before the open parenthesis, and the variable "Smells (like|of|similar to)" prefix has been changed to a static "Smells like" prefix to avoid awkward phrasing with some custom scents. Changes made by Song: The transition to form scents was changed from "<form name>; that is, of <form scent>" to "<form name>, a scent of <form scent>", player-set scents in rooms were split into a separate sentence, and an inefficient regex check was converted to a faster instring one."

Boopable Coder Inutt says, "Scent phrasing slightly adjusted in the smell command for better grammar in some cases."

Boopable Coder Inutt says, "There is no longer any need to fear the tits of gravitational repulsion - breast mass should no longer show as -inf, and nor should milk production!"

Boopable Coder Inutt says, "+adept and +coyote should now do partial matching of form names."

Tinkering Little Critter squees, "Favored Terrain has been brought into question many times, and after some testing it was quite literally turning diffused 2 target AOEs info concentrated single target strikes that were more punishing than what one may have suffered had they not used the Favored Terrain ability. Favored Terrain has been put into the box of memories and replaced with Flow State, a personal buff that will hopefully incentivize the use of the Strategist class given it is among the most flexible ones out there."

Boopable Coder Inutt says, "Following a word with Zephyr's technicians about exactly what 'random with a specified tag' means, +adept and +coyote now correctly limit the selection to a specified tag (if provided), rather than ignoring it."

Same Old Song says, "Updated the Groups wiki page (https://wiki.flexiblesurvival.com/w/Groups) with expanded and updated Group Upgrades information. Individual group upgrade pages pending."

Same Old Song says, "The group upgrade Duty has been removed. It appeared to have never actually been coded, and no groups selected the upgrade."

Same Old Song says, "Updated the Getting Started/View helpfile. It now actually says how to remove view, and the commands have been colorized for easier reading."

Same Old Song says, "wi flags have been cleaned up. The internal list of wi flags is now all lowercase, matching how they display to players and fixing some edge-case display quirks. Removed some redundant or unused properties. Removed trailing spaces after some wi flag descriptions. Fixed various typos in wi flag descriptions."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "New warnings in Fuck that let you know if your partner has active items that may affect you directly during intercourse, such as Infectious Cum or alter how pregnancy works like Abnormal Breeder. You can disable the warnings with fuck #woff, and this is also noted in the help file."

Avatar says, "Poll 'Jnote List Trust Level' has ended. +poll/cview Jnote List Trust Level to see the results."

Fun Police X-ray beep boops, "Checking someone's +jnote now requires only READ level of trust instead of TRUSTED."

Same Old Song says, "Turns out, we has both a "Password" and a "Passwords" helpfile. The former has been removed since "help Password" brings up the latter."

Tinkering Little Critter squees, "Hail Hydra had a teeny tiny typo in its head transformation. It has been untypo'd."

Same Old Song says, "The description of Infectious Cum has been modified to reflect that it can be used from your inventory to toggle between off, on, and using a specific infection that you have mastered."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "The Self-Determined vanity perk is now available! Those who donated 50+ have been awarded their badges, and those who donated 100+ have received their additional perk point. This perk allows you to set the text that shows in your Sex entry in WS and the like, whether you want it to be Cuntboy, Dickgirl, Apache Helicopter, or simply Potato. This will NOT affect your pronouns or your sex parts (other perks handle thos)."

Tinkering Little Critter squees, "The Unshielded Prototype had "Energy" damage set as its secondary damage type. Changed to Critical given it's a consequence and should be hard to resist."

Same Old Song says, "Reverted an unannounced content change to the Water Hydra head transformation message. Fixed the Math Teacher infection missing its Defeat message."

Boopable Coder Inutt says, "Minor adjustments to core infection handling code have been made. No player-visible changes should occur, but mentioning it in case of bugs."

Boopable Coder Inutt says, "In an effort to focus their resources on currently relevant projects, Zephyr Inc's R&D team have announced that the TIE mako toy has reached end-of-life and will no longer be supported. All existing devices have been recalled and refunds have been issued to those affected."

Boopable Coder Inutt says, "Zephyr's DNA research bounty should now show the correct cooldown time in +bounty."

Boopable Coder Inutt says, "The issue with Mammary Averaging Devices "averaging" breasts to size zero should now be fixed, along with an additional bug that briefly (and amusingly) caused breasts to appear in place of all other body parts too."

I Code, Inutt says, "+adept and +coyote should now check for an exact form name match before checking for partial matches. For example: '+adept shift plushie' will shift to the plushie form (assuming you have it mastered), '+adept shift plush' will list all the plushie variants you have mastered and ask you to be more specific."

I Code, Inutt says, "+adept and +coyote energy costs corrected to be what they were supposed to be, assuming I fixed the bug correctly."

Same Old Song says, "Cleared out any remaining old badge title properties, which were no longer being used."

Same Old Song says, "Cleaned up the stretch goals list for improved clarity and consistent active voice."

Same Old Song says, "Updated the Latex Fox form. It will now avoid calling your character's ears or cock latex if they do not have the latex flag. Setting yourself to a single color via Color Chooser will now call your skin "color1 latex" instead of "color1 and color2 latex". Also rephrased some descriptions and transform messages to read more smoothly."

Same Old Song says, "Updated the Wolf Beast form to more consistently refer to the ears and tail as black in description and TF message. Also fixed a typo in the torso Kemonomimi description."

Same Old Song says, "Added Tail Divider support to Fox Boy and Fox Girl."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "The ick colors used prior in glance and the like for newer gender listings has been corrected, and Self-Determined's description has been updated, adding a gendercolor lstat for setting."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "For those who don't wish for the extra IC information about a cum's flavor when fucking, you can toggle off the messages with fuck #flavor off or back on with on or without an additional param to simply toggle back and forth."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "When noting on requests, all those who've commented on that request will be notified, including yourself, of the new message. You can silence these with +request/silent on so that you only receive notifications on requests you've placed or just sent a comment to. Setting it off will toggle back to the default of seeing messages. This is only moving forward, so, prior messages you've commented on will not know this distinction."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Missing costs on various sex and gender-related merits fixed."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Costs removed again. Removal will require manual staff removal without Fluid Gender."
