May

• Removed phantom item from token store.
• Added all new Victory and oVictory scenes to the Hyena Herm, as well additional spicy Defeat scene material (including variants for submitting).
• Worked through around half of all monsters so far clearing out dead ATB (Active Time Battle) values.
  • In some cases, these took 40-50% of the data stored on a mob, resulting in nearly double properties copied each time a mob was spawned.
  • Clearing them subtly speeds up combat initiation.
• In-game crafting help removed from the help file.
  • Should in-game crafting be restored, the help file will be back dated to include that information again.
    • Crafting items for in-game use is still possible via the web-interface.
• Attempting to search for a specific target now tells you it has no impact on how likely they are to appear.
• Updated Feral Modes to properly clear all current Feral powers when changing Feral Modes (should keep players from having powers from multiple Feral Modes).
  • In addition, all Feral players will have their Feral Modes refreshed to remove any extra powers.
  • Feral Modes now grant powers based on your true level instead of your effective level.
• Updated Sheet/Score to include a '+' on Proficiency levels to account for group's Skill Improvements.
  • It won't be directly added, instead included as a '+X' with your proficiency level.
  • This will be 10 or less, depending on the proficiency level and your current effective level.
• Female Husky and Alpha Husky given a Kemonomimi description.
• Updated Sheet to no longer show the + from Group Skill Improvements should the bonus be 0.
• +bg/edit has been locked with a message mentioning it has been deprecated.
• Alien revised to remove dated 'you' references from autodesc, remove potentially copyright-infringing parts in its descriptions, added in Color Chooser support, added in Kemonomimi support, and gave it Wi flag checks in Defeat and OVic.
  • Alien also given missing Clawed and Tailed flags, and Tail Divider support added to their butt.
• A new Defeat scene has been added to the Anubis Servant infection.
  • While this cannot be accessed through ordinary means, it will now generate a message if an Anubis Servant is ever spawned artificially by a judge for a scene and defeats a player.
• A new Victory and oVictory scene have been added to Blue Gryphon as well as more variety in the Defeat.
• Added a cunnilingus sex scene to Tess the Succubus.
• Abnormal breeder now functions correctly, those with the merit may want to be more (Or less) careful about your sexual habits.

  • This should fix some bugginess with certain abodes.

• New cunt descriptions added to Female Husky and Alpha Husky.
• Fixed a bug that caused a lot of statuses to go through the string parsing process unnecessarily.
• Form examination is ready to be used!

  • Syntax is fex (infection).
  • It supports partial matching identical to that used in the shift logic.
• Added the Clawed flag to the Legs slot of forms with claws on the feet.
  • Also added the Hooved flag where appropriate.
  • In String Parsing, please target the slot you wish to evaluate Clawed for from now on: [if clawed present in arms of [target]] vs [if clawed present in legs of [target]].

• Cleaned up the Ebony Raven form, giving it a cunt TF message and adding checks for flags in the Victory/Defeat.

  • The warrior's size have been knocked down from from 14 to 7 and the matriarch from 15 to 10.
    • In addition, the Victory/oVictory/Defeat messages for each have received extra parsing to account for flags, and their descriptions/TF messages have received some polish.
• Malfunction in card payment fixed!
• Fixed Average Trade - Goodies, which was using only 2.5 PP instead of 5.
• You now, based on your active subscription(as in what you got from payment, not permanent status) have a chance of scoring a second vial from a prime fight(34% per level, so 33% at hiker, 67% at survivalist, 100% at Wasteland Warrior)
• Primes and their reinforcements are now immune to charm.
• Fixed small bug in power code that could cause a crash on calculating secondary magnitudes.

  • It cannot be forced to target a non-pet.
• When using standard consumable items (ones that are not complex or not used up), a message will now tell you that you have used one.

• A new +request command has been added.
  • +request/priority <ascend/descend> sorts your requests into three priorities which are as follows.

        • High (last comment not by yourself).

  • If it affects males, it targets your current NPC-pregnancy.
    • The default is both.
• +mako/Pregcast updated to work on people with male-enabled PBRDs. Similarly, the pregnancy-ticks now take them into account.
• Being offline will no longer halt your NPC-pregnancy's progress.
  • It will move along at the same rate as a regular pregnancy in that case.
• Fixed a serious bug in the offline-progress of NPC-pregnancies that would either invalidate a regular pregnancy or set the time of your regular pregnancy wrong.
  • Anyone affected by the former has been set to the minimal pregnancy-time due to fairness-considerations.
