Creatures stuck IG "(dead)" should now properly die if you attack them again. Violence IS the answer.

Related fix: Guard creatures (friendly or otherwise) should no longer 'interpose' these deadites, allowing them to die properly.

After over a week of digging through every possible line of code related to warranting and lawkeeper AI, I've found the source of the no-attack-after-warranting bug and fixed it.
Note for vanity: It had nothing to do with any changes I've made recently to lawkeeps and had to do with some peculiarity in jail code. While on topic: * Short Version: I've gone through every line of code every GM has contributed to lawkeepers over the last sixteen years and cleaned it up. * Long Version: The excessive multi-warrant bug that seemed to emerge every few months on people should be completely fixed as of today as well. If it isn't, please @report. In the vast majority of cases, NPCs will only issue 1-2 charges for any given crime (there are intentional exceptions, but if you find yourself going to jail with 85 charges of Petty Theft, it's a bug.) I've also made some general improvements to AI: - Constable smarts and skills have been upgraded. - Random bonuses to their attacks have been reduced. - I've also done my best to minimize insta-repeat-attacks. Part of the high rate of repeat attacks (which affects all creatures) has to do with server processing and isn't entirely avoidable. - Processing speed for constable AI has been streamlined and they should perform better, overall. Note: They're the guinea pigs, so other lawkeeper types will be improved only as changes are proven to work, though bugs are fixed universally.

Bows shouldn't get stuck worn and in your hands any longer. If so, PLEASE report the steps that lead up to it.
As a general reminder: showing how to reproduce a bug makes it 1000 times easier to find and fix, than just "This is broken, fix it." |

Regardless of lag levels, you should no longer be able to look for more than one NPC from a crowd at a time.
Incidentally, lag as a result of repeat crowd-pulls should be drastically reduced.

I think I fixed the bug that causes lawkeeper NPCs to obsessively patrol 2-3 rooms after making an arrest, but that bug is weird on so many levels.
So if it does crop up again, please @report.

That one constable that was wandering for the last couple hours was left IG intentionally as my lab rat.

Want a drag?
The drag command has been put in its place.
Its processing has been streamlined and should, in most cases, have faster system response times. The fatigue drain fix is a double-edged sword: The math was previously written in a way that resulted in either NO fatigue drain or an insane amount of fatigue drain. This should be normalized now: drag properly uses fatigue every time. The amounts vary based on several factors. Note: How wounds affect dragging has not been touched. Wound levels can be low and still affect fatigue drain, depending on the type and location of the wound. If you do still find odd cases of fatigue drain that you suspect are a bug, please @report them with as many details as possible. Forum threads don't provide me with any useful data to reference in the game.

Built portals no longer circumvent lighting with LOOK <dir>.
Previously: - Looking east on an open street with no portal would tell you it's too dark. - If there was a gate between the two streets, you could see anyway. Currently: - If it's too dark, you can't see.

Not really an ideal fix, but considering this has baffled every coder we have and continues to inconvenience players, I've put together a bandaid:
When you have an item that turns out to be both worn and inhand, you can force a fix using REMOVE <item>. It will be cleared out of your inventory and then moved back into your hand (or the ground, if your hands are unable to be emptied.) It will also send data to the GMs to further help us track down this glitch. This bug was most often noticed by archers and their bows, but it has on occasion affected other items.

I removed 226 idle sewer snakes from the bandit caves, and (I believe) repaired the bug that prevented them from going anywhere.

PS: You've always been able to stand in the room with the ladder. I've renamed it slightly to be more obvious that it isn't mechanically restricted.

The Signal Tower Island gulls should (hopefully) no longer spawn fatigued.

The bug with language tutors has been fixed. Thanks to the honest folk who reported it!
