The Scroll (The First Day) - Module 1 v1.36E NOW AVAILABLE!

Hi All,

For those following: The Scroll Module 1 will be having another release v1.36E in the coming days/weeks ahead. My wife is following another path that can be taken and experimenting with some other areas of code that have had some “lighter usage”. I have also been making improvements with the code while progressing with Module 2.

NB: None of these issues are game-breaking, but there are some that are “annoying” at times,and so I consider it an important update. You are more likely to encounter these issues if you are playing hard-core mode (death) and/or do a lot of crafting.

Here is the list of fixes, which I will continue to update until testing is over …

    1. FUNCTIONS: Fixed efficiency of some functions that could fail if too involved.
    1. KASANDRA: Fixed rare Kasandra conversation and add to party script bug. (*)
    1. CRAFT TAB: Finally rewrote the craft tab feedback script to avoid TMI with large parties.

    1. HARD CORE DEATH: Ensured rune bag is maintained by a living party member.
    1. AREA EXIT FAIL: Fixed broken companions to allow exit after abandoning them.
    1. PRISONER: Prevent prisoner being killed prior chat. (+)
    1. HENCHMEN LEVEL: Fixed henchmen level resetting. i.e. Fixed their levelling.
    1. MASTER DEATH: Henchmen now auto-reallocate to the Main PC if master dies.

(+) Same issue with neutral faction and reputations.
