  14. New player command: PAGEBREAK. Also, pagebreak and linewrap added to CONFIG command. -- You can also enter x, quit, or exit at the pagebreak prompt to stop output.
  15. LIST LOG now streams its data for extreme speed.
  16. Players more than 10X fatigued will have a 1% chance/tick to fall under the sleep spell.

  18. Players will be notified when users on FRIENDS list log off, just like logins.
  19. FieryRoom Behavior tick parms apply to damage now, instead of room destruction (other parms for that anyway).

  26. New Prayer: Sense Alergies
  27. Internal: Some time/CPU control has been implemented for skills that require scanning the whole map (like Teleport or Gate, etc. This means that for large maps, players may notice those skills have gotten much "slower", though in reality, it will help your mud support more people doing such things.

  33. Cooking will now give slightly more specific names to the final recipe (Fried Water Fowl instead of Fried Poultry, etc)
  34. Channel socials can now target Cataloged mobs (targetting other out-of-room mobs would have required a world scan)
