[05.19.2010] Server and Client Updates

Post by Koma »

As of the 19th of May in 2010, we are now utilizing eAthena Revision 14296. For precise core changes, click the eAthena link. It's recommended to check the eAthena ChangeLog since it may include information that is not listed here.

NOTE: This also includes updates that were implemented live from last week's maintenance -- as no reboot was necessary for the updates.

Bug Fixes:
  • Leather of Tendrillion - As reported by Roy Revant, Leather of Tendrillion was also missing from Tendrillion's drops. This has been added at 5% base -- meaning 50% by our rates.
  • Old Payon Skill Restrictions - This was an overlooked mapflag that went by under the radar for some time. This was supposed to be removed with all other town maps besides Prontera long ago. It is now removed because Aoi yelled at me.
  • Hat Dude Fixes - A typo in the Hunter Cap description has been corrected as it originally said that there was no slot when there was one as reported by Deathvader. In addition, the White Love Dad Hat has also been added as it was missing.
  • Instance Warp Manager - To mitigate possible (yet very small) abuse of the Orc's Memory warp, the instance warps now follow the requirements set forth for the instances themselves. This means that for Orc's Memory, you must be between levels 30 and 80 to enter. For Sealed Shrine, you must be level 75 and above.
  • Mercenary Experience Rate - Thanks to Roy Revant again for noticing this. The source changes necessary to increase the experience gained for mercenaries were only affecting kills, but not contract end and mercenary deaths. This may have been a positive for some players as it meant they didn't lose 10 loyalty for their mercenaries dying, but it also meant that they didn't get the 10 loyalty bonus for completing a contract.
  • eAthena Updates - These updates include more minor typo fixes! Also, the Juice Maker has been corrected in regards to the "As Many As I Can" option; and the excessive "Next" buttons in the Kiel Hyre Quest have been removed.
Other Updates:
  • Weekly Bonus Gift Drop - For this week, the latest collectible hat is the Silver Tiara[0]! Last week's collectible hat was Frog Hat[0]. Remember, you can message "NPC:GiftDrop" the text "INFO!" and it will tell you what the current Gift Drop is too!
  • Character Limit For Wool - The character limit for Wool has been increased to 3 characters maximum. This should allow players to have a little more variety in their testing.
  • KafraNapping - Minor tweaks have been done to this event to make it easier to host on the staff-side -- thereby meaning it should become more common and exhaust Kiana until she breaks her legs.
  • Hat Dude Additions - Three more hats have been added by Kiana: Solar Panels, Kettle Hat, and Ribbon Hat.
  • Guess The Monster Updates - This event has been overhauled to exclude a number of non-spawning/event monsters, players blocking the NPC, and using kRO names instead of iRO names. The number of rounds has also been reduced to 2 as there have been concerns of too many hats lately.
  • Additional Mailboxes - The missing mailboxes from Splendide, Manuk, and Midgarts Camp have been added to the server.
  • @Request - Additional tweaks have been made to @request.
  • Baby WoE Treasures - The Baby WoE Treasure Chests have been reverted to the normal, non-modified treasure chests. They can be reviewed via an @mi of monsters 2002 to 2005.
