Revision as of 06:14, 1 October 2021

Dog Song says, "It's spooky month, and you know what that means: The Trick or Treat Motel is open for business again! Bit early, you ask? After some thought, the time window for availability has been changed from the hard-to-remember October 28-through-November 3 to the entire span of October (00:00 October 1 to 23:59 October 31, server time). This change also is consistent with the availability of holiday forms throughout the month of October. Have fun!"

Just a Tinkering Critter squees, "The Beast Warden class is now available for purchase at the Feral Training hut in New Dawn! Keep in mind this is the first Pet class I have made so it is prone to being... uhhh... either too strong or not strong enough. Feedback appreciated, feel free to mail Critter=(Topic) me about it!"

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

Dog Song says, "The class helpfiles have been overhauled. The parent directory has been renamed from Class to Classes to catch on both singular and plural forms, matching Roles. The "Class Levels" and "Class Mastery" helpfiles have been merged into one since the latter just directed you to the former, and the merged helpfile is now called "Class Levels and Class Mastery". Added information about the XP bonus per class mastered at the bottom of the file."

Dog Song says, "Wishing Wells are now more discoverable and have improved documentation. See help Extras/Wishing Wells for basic information and enter toss at the specified locations for commands."

Dog Song says, "Updated the filename on oviposition commands from Extras/ovi to Extras/Oviposition and Ovipositors for improved discoverability."

Avatar says, "Item (1633165862) placed onto the poll board by Song, called '+jnote Trust Level Requirement. +poll/view +jnote Trust Level Requirement to look at and vote in this poll."

Dog Song says, "The +request help menu has been cleaned up. The +request/summary command is no longer in the "Staff and Judge Specific Commands" section, as the command is available to all players. Some sentence structure has also been adjusted for clarity."

Just a Tinkering Critter squees, "There is currently something haunting the flags of Kill Command. The statuses apply as they should, however the damage it deals is reported as healing for some reason. I am using this as an opportunity to sniff for bugs in the system, however for now the power's primary function is essentially working. The healing has also been curbstomped to prevent the power from being malfunctional. Until further notice however, it will report as Healing the enemy for... 0 health. Thank you those who reached out to report the issue."

eWrecked Glitch nasally huffs, "The area of Saltpeter Isle that had previously been web-only prior to the web combat reform is now attached to the on-grid Saltpeter Island (pending descriptions for the rooms, still, but it's open, for now)"

Dog Song says, "There is now a new tag for forms: Elf. See tags elf for a (likely not yet complete) listing of elven forms."

eWrecked Glitch nasally huffs, "Saltpeter Isle is now describified, woot!"

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

eWrecked Glitch nasally huffs, "Candy Dragon's milk has been updated to represent the description better. Try it out and see!"

eWrecked Glitch nasally huffs, "Due to popular demand, the +pet command will be opt-out for trust qualification. This means nobody will be blindsided by +pet by default and can choose to participate easily with a TRUST prompt. Trust can still be disabled for it with the same command that would have enabled it before. Also, as belly rubbing is a new feature, a special toggle has been made for it, #nobelly so that that specific style of petting can be opted out of for those who're uncomfortable with that type of petting. All changes are reflected in the pet #help documentation."

eWrecked Glitch nasally huffs, "The commended command now lists how many, after the list, numerically you've commended."

eWrecked Glitch nasally huffs, "The pet command also updated so that if no parameter is given, it'll default show the #help rather than crashing."

Dog Song says, "4 new lore entries have been added for characters: Alex the zebra, Anton the bull, Ellie the Latex Fox, and Alice the Gun Bunny. These files can be earned just by visiting and talking to them. Characters who are unaffiliated with the factions or larger areas are now part of the "Wastelanders" set. Anton is part of the "Clairmont Residents" set. In addition, performed general lore file formatting cleanup."

Dog Song says, "Minor change to the Pause? function in talkscript: The printed text was changed from "Type x(then enter) to continue" to "Type x (then enter) to continue.""

Dog Song says, "Fixed the Quad-Ruler item unintentionally appending to the autodescription when you're already in a form that has the feral flag due to some deprecated stringparsing."

Dog Song says, "Fixed a double-space after a comma in the Mysterious Glowing Key description specifically when generated from +reward (the description in the Mako store version didn't have this error). Note that newly generated keys might not stack with older keys from +reward as a result."

Dog Song says, "*page me if you'd like that your existing keys to be manually fixed to stack right."

Dog Song says, "A new form has appeared in the Xanadu Gardens: the Opium Drake. Search this exotic creature out at your own peril. Form written by Acetyl."

Dog Song says, "Fixed broken stringparsing in the Cerberus Herm torso description that resulted in code appearing in descriptions."

eWrecked Glitch mistily breathes, "*SQUISH* That's the sound of the bug in balls causing uniball and other odd shifting nuts issues to occur getting splattered."

eWrecked Glitch mistily breathes, "A few more extreme kinks placed into +kinks, including Popping, Ball Popping, Prostate Popping, CBT, and Breast Torture all under BDSM. Onomatopoeia has been added into the General kinks as well *kersplat*."

eWrecked Glitch mistily breathes, "And Handholding, you pervs."

Dog Song says, "Fixed the Ebony Raven form missing the Beaked flag. You can now lick its beak."

Dog Song says, "Added missing Beaked flag to Dandy Peacock, Farm Hen, Graceful Crane, Gryphoenix, Hummingbird, and Parrot Lady. Credit to Vann for locating these omissions."

Dog Song says, "Added missing Clawed flag to Ankylosaurian arms, Balaur Taur arms, Deinoraus arms, and Philosraptor arms. Added missing Feathered flag to Australian Magpie, Balaur Taur, Graceful Crane, and Hummingbird. Added missing Hooved flag to Momma Bronto. Added missing Scaled flag to African Rock Python and Anery Stripe Cornsnake."

Dog Song says, "Fixed some unusable 'Painted Wolf' vials appearing in NISD units. These vials could not be consumed and were a typo of the 'Painted Wolf Herm' form."

Dog Song says, "Added Latex flag to Inflatable Latex Sex Toy and Rubber Balls. Removed incorrect Template tag from Rubber Balls. Added missing Template tag to Inflatable Latex Sex Toy. Added missing Template special property to Inflatable Latex Sex Toy, Trapped Booty, and Uddertaur."

Dog Song says, "The Muscle Hulk form has received an improved cock description and groin TF message, content courtesy of Richard."

Dog Song says, "Touched up the Marbled Fox form's scenes. The defeat scene now has a brief acknowledgement when you submit instead of being downed by HP loss. Also fixed some grammar and stringparsing issues in the defeat scene. The oVictory scene now targets the victor and not the loser when determining whether the victor lacks a mouth to give oral."

Dog Song says, "In the event that the Latex Snow Leopard spawns as a male, it no longer makes a fourth-wall-breaking comment that the player gave it a cock."

Dog Song says, "Fixed several stringparsing bugs in the Lynxaroo Victory and oVictory messages that caused size comparison checks to always return false. Added pronoun substitution code to the Victory and fixed buggy substitution in the oVictory."

Dog Song says, "Fixed lowercase pronoun substitutions after punctuation in the Aquafeline Victory and oVictory and Shiba Inu Victory (eg. ". she"). Fixed the Cabbotchon oVictory printing "him arm" and "him chest" due to using %o instead of %p substitution."

eWrecked Glitch churrs adorably, "Thanks to a very popular suggestion by Ankh, Mako Pools for adding a thigh and cheek option for the fuck command have been set, completed and followed through with. Enjoy the new options!"

eWrecked Glitch churrs adorably, "Badges awarded, too."

Dog Song says, "Fixed the listforms #lstats readout including "color3" due to incomplete filtering of Color Chooser-specific parsing. Fixed the Heroic Humanoid "uncovered" lstat being non-functional due to not specifying a target to evaluate. Fixed the Usagi Boi using "Okami Boi" in the lstat name. Fixed the Planar Panther "mode" lstat being typo'd as "Planer Panther" in the groin field."

eWrecked Glitch churrs adorably, "Yay! The bugs plaguing fuck in regards to 's and with are now fixed! Also nipped a few small bugs along the way."

eWrecked Glitch churrs adorably, "Bug in ScentEx that wouldn't handle species listings with / in it now fixed."

Dog Song says, "Fixed the Skink Skank groin transformation not displaying correctly due to a stringparsing error. Fixed the Noble Fox skin description not displaying correctly due to a stringparsing error. Fixed a doubled "the" in the Lynxaroo ass description."

eWrecked Glitch churrs adorably, "Errors in displaying previews when using the Monster Maker in-game are now fixed."

eWrecked Glitch bumble-buzzes, "A new infection has been sighted in Japan, at the Irradiated Township. Reports indicate it's a Bumbleboi. Bee nice."

Dog Song says, "Fixed errors in Color Chooser support in the Bumblebee form. The color2 checks in the ass and long skin descriptions now correctly print color2 instead of color."

Dog Song says, "*Bumbleboi, not Bumblebee, oops"

Dog Song says, "The Male Gator now has an anal defeat scene variant."

Dog Song says, "Added a new, long, kinky Defeat scene to the Quicksilver Serpent when submitting to it as another 100% Quicksilver Serpent."

Dog Song says, "Fixed typos in the following: Bumbleboi ass description, head description and transformation, legs description and transformation, and torso description; Buta Yarou ass transformation, legs kemonomimi description, and skin transformation; Painted Wolf Herm ass description; Silk Moth cock transformation and torso transformation."

Dog Song says, "Fixed the Steelfang Jackal "cyber" local stat being nonfunctional in the arms transformation due to the check referring to the form as "Uber Schakal" instead of its current name."

Codeberker Inutt says, "Licking an orifice clean should no longer lock up your client until forcibly disconnected - now you can felch to your heart's content! Or at least until you get tired, anyway."

Codeberker Inutt says, "For those that prefer a less moist lifestyle, the licker now has #on and #off toggles to prevent anybody from licking you (and to prevent you licking anyone else)."

Dog Song says, "At long last, the Church of Promethea daily questline no longer hands out AI precepts. These drops did nothing now that the precepts are granted to players by default. As part of the rework, these AI items have been replaced by a small chance to get Vial Tokens and even Training Tokens (worth 5 Reward Tokens). Additionally, the Unpredictable mod has a 50% chance to drop from the Priest (80 hour cooldown) and Chibi Skunk vials are substantially more common to make mastery easier. (Since there's been a myth about it, no, talking to the Odd-Looking Skunk to accept their quest repeatedly does not alter the quest's odds or queue anything. It's a simple active-inactive toggle depending on your reply.)"

Dog Song says, "Church of Promethea quest, Take 2! Made several bugfixes and quality-of-life changes. The quest now cycles through all defeated boss rewards when speaking to the skunk again, rather than having to talk to her 3 times. Chibi Skunk vial likelihood has been reduced again to equal weighting with Vial Tokens and Training Tokens (25% chance per boss each, still higher than it was pre-update). All 'low'-tier rewards are now equal weighting, so you're less likely to get Sexual Fixative or Neutralizer - M and more likely to get Neutralizer - F and Nanite Funnel."

Codeberker Inutt says, "Generating an anti-licking aura (with lick #off) now also makes you completely unaware of when other people get licked too. Yay for less spam, if you're not into that!"

Codeberker Inutt says, "Those with a quirkily long tongue should now be able to lick slightly harder to reach parts than those with normal length tongues now."

Nuku smoothly says, "Fixed a bug that'd make it hard to view some accounts properly."

Codeberker Inutt says, "Minor fix to +jnote to correctly display other peoples' total quirk points correctly. (This may also affect the website display, but not confirmed)"

Codeberker Inutt says, "Renaming your womb room with +womb name= will now take effect immediately, and no longer requires everyone to vacate and re-enter."

Codeberker Inutt says, "Minor comm system adjustment - you can now say @ on its own without triggering an accidental Yoda-like rearrangement of your sentence structure."

Codeberker Inutt says, "OK, so maybe you can't use @ on its own after all. Please stop now :-)"

Codeberker Inutt says, "Comm system tweaked again, now until someone finds another edge case (so probably about three seconds), messages can now end with an @"

Codeberker Inutt says, "Comm system edge case (probably) fixed, and @'s (an '@' followed by a apostrophe then anything else) should no longer cause issues."

Dog Song says, "Beefed up the King Cobra defeat scene with additional details. It now has slight variations for submission, multiple vaginas, and characters with the Doesn't Breathe perk."

Dog Song says, "Adjusted the formatting of monster bounties, daily missions, salvage missions, and RP hot spots to include a blank newline after the message for neatness."

eWrecked Glitch bumble-buzzes, "Raincatcher is quasi-complete. Code's made and appears stable, item available in the Token Redemption at the 100-spot, and all badges and items have been awarded to Backers. Let's see if this thing floats! I mean, catches rain! Or... yeah."

eWrecked Glitch bumble-buzzes, "Found a naughty typo in Scentex bugging code. Fixed."

eWrecked Glitch bumble-buzzes, "Huzzah! Correct display of Raincatcher has been fixified."

eWrecked Glitch bumble-buzzes, "Jello Data renamed to Gelatin."

eWrecked Glitch bumble-buzzes, "New function: Nanomagic #list will list your data files in a much more organized and readable fashion. Hopefully."

Dog Song says, "Updated the Chiller form. Fixed broken parsing in the Victory scene due to a missing [end if]. Cleaned up the description and TF messages. Added some gender parsing for more masculine players. Added a more appropriate cunt and clit description."

Dog Song says, "Powers that are not of the "Nuke" type no longer have the "Nuke" AoE target and have been downgraded to "Large" AoE. This change has been made for two reasons: 1) Reducing the total amount of simultaneous effects stacked on enemy or ally targets in full groups to reduce server load, and 2) To make the "Nuke" type feel unique with massive AoEs, rather than the type being a strict negative. Affected powers include: Aim True, Alms Wide Open, Atomic Hide, Always Whole, Belittle, Cover Me, Diabolitics, Favored Terrain, Fiery Blanket, Fires of Hell, Infectious Vitality, Intelligent Plans, Light of Spring, Paint Target, Retaliate (triggered by Ambush), Security Drone, Serenity, and Tears of Life."

Fun Police X-ray beep boops, "Filled messages shall not state that snakes have legs."

Dog Song says, "Bounty Hunter's Ambush power has been reworked. Instead of applying the Retaliate defensetrigger on the user, it applies it in a Large Ally AoE. The Retaliate defensetrigger has had its duration reduced from 20 to 5 rounds, its target changed from Large Enemy AoE to Single Enemy, and had its buff component removed. Motivation: Ambush didn't work well for group play previously since most attacks targeted the group tank(s), and the Bounty Hunter would draw more aggro than intended when it did trigger. This change also makes the defensetrigger scale with the user who receives it, so AoE-increasing skills and Concentrated apply."

Dog Song says, "Fixed some repetitive wording in the Hotdogger arms transformation. Added gender parsing to the Scorpilion's victory and defeat scenes. Expanded the Stagtaur's victory and defeat scenes: Added many new body type flag checks, added missing fill code to the defeat scene, added missing impregnation code and fill code to its victory scene, and added gender parsing and detailed multi-genital support to all scenes."

Nuku smoothly says, "hir/sie is now her/she by default."

Dog Song says, "The Hermerific perk has been removed since it is no longer functional. View your perks list to refund the vanity perk point. In its stead, you can set yourself to see custom pronouns for any gender configuration. See help string parsing/Pronoun Replacements for the command and details."

Dog Song says, "Well, it had to happen eventually. Chock Milk has been slightly nerfed. It's no longer a Large AoE + 1, but just a regular Large AoE, matching its template power Group Heal. The power's other attributes remain the same."

Dog Song says, "*With how often it's paired with Rapid Mending, this may yield a minor positive performance improvement to combat."

Dog Song says, "Two popular hostile auras have been... adjusted? Reworked? One of those two. Atomic Hide and Quill Wag have been reduced from Large AoEs to Small AoEs. However, their damage has been buffed from 6 to 8 to compensate for this. The changes are part of a larger look over hostile auras to reduce damage calculations while maintaining similar power. Future tweaks (buffs *or* nerfs) pending depending on how the changes pan out."

Dog Song says, "The ps (power search) command can now find Milk Chug based on its damage numbers."

Fun Police X-ray beep boops, "Hotfixed cheeks and thighs fucking."

Dog Song says, "The Cheetah and Nectaurine form victories no longer play a watersports scene if you're set to dislike the wat wi flag."

Fun Police X-ray beep boops, "Teached nanites to understand 'yes' when gathering vials."

Dog Song says, "Sniper has been adjusted. Accuracy 1->2, Fast Loading 0->-1. Motivation: At extremely high-level content, big hits eventually starts to peter off compared to DoTs due to enemy resistances, hpbuffer, and effective level-difference-based defense overwhelming raw damage. A higher Accuracy stat allows Sniper to remain useful for burst damage in extreme content, at the expense of recharge time on those nuking single-target hits. Thematically, it's more appropriate for snipers to be highly accurate."

Dog Song says, "The Commando class has been retooled. Its concept has been narrowed down from the very broad DPS/Repeats/DoT/Debuffer/Concentrated into a more focused DPS/Repeats/Concentrated. The following skill changes were made: Damage 1->2, Flurry 1->2, Healing -1->0, Opportunity 1->0, Tactician 1->0, Speed 2->1. The Suppressed Fire power has had its debuff component removed and its Damage buffed 15->18, retaining its low-aggro-draw properties. The Knife Thrust power has had its debuff and DoT damage components removed and Damage buffed 14->20, RepeatAttackDuration nerfed 1->2. The Covering Fire power had its ally buff property removed, but it's no longer NoAoE, now scaling off the recipients AoEmod and Controlled Burst. Future changes pending depending on how it performs in practice."

Codeberker Inutt says, "Pregnancy counting in +groin/+size now actually counts all pregnancies, not just eggs. Whoops..."

Codeberker Inutt says, "Several flag checks updated in the fuck command to check both template and base forms for increased fuckability."

Dog Song says, "Adjusted the Sniper class - again. Fast Loading -1->0, Avoidance 1->0. Motivation: The previous cut to Fast Loading to increase Accuracy resulted in a net loss of DPS with power rotations that use consumables and pocketables. This new change makes the class not glacially slow anymore at the expense of being even more of a glass cannon. Be gentle."

Dog Song says, "The OOC Button - Random Encounters object has been moved to the second floor of the Zephyr Lobby. Motivation: Since the lobby is more frequented, this reduces overall room clutter, and it seems more appropriate next to the danger and pheromone technicians."

Fun Police X-ray beep boops, "Failed fuck attempts due to lacking specific body parts will now print to the whole room, not just the receiver."

Codeberker Inutt says, "Mute flaw and muzzle item mechanical effects removed, as it was causing issues during RP. Speech restrictions will no longer be enforced so that non-verbal poses work better."

Codeberker Inutt says, "tport command help updated to remove references to features not supported on FS."

Codeberker Inutt says, "#detail option removed from +size command, as showing stats we don't actually track is a bit misleading."

eWrecked Glitch bumble-buzzes, "Some bugs in the web interface code found and squashed. Not sure of their overall impact, but they were definitely bugs that hindered some of the code form continuing."

Codeberker Inutt says, "The licker has received a bit of behind the scenes attention to improve reliability and flexibility. There shouldn't be any player-facing changes, but please report any issues."

Dog Song says, "Added missing Multiarms flag to Cherry Cordial."

Codeberker Inutt says, "RSX's R-Mart Software store has closed for good, having been put out of business by the freely available AI plugins that all agents have these days. Any enquiries regarding taking over the premises should be directed to RSX management. (They only sold AI software items, which are no longer required since being made available to all players by default)"

Codeberker Inutt says, "For those that use it, the keys and related commands have had an exploit fixed, and all invalid keys have been removed."

eWrecked Glitch bumble-buzzes, "More revisions to the Fuck code have been made, including making sure you can't try fucking others when you have it #off, giving you a message to let you know how to turn it back on when you try and have it off. Some tweaks made for when you use the fuck command with jsut 'fuck <name> that will hopefully now explode anymore or block folks from fucking normally."
