Wanted to mention some of the updates that have gone in recently. Mostly I’ve been working on the Survivor’s Quest pre-content, which is coming along now.
- In the inventory, empty equipment slots are listed if you have some of that item type available. Thanks to Mag for the suggestion.
- Corrected an error where Vigilante fights weren’t costing Energy consistently. Good catch, NeonGrey!
- Fixed up the dates on the Updates pane to say 2010… you know, the year we’ve been in for a while. Thanks for catching that, DanBob!
- Corrected how stuns (mostly Petrol Splash) are displayed so you shouldn’t run into situations where a stun is displayed after a round where they did nothing. This was the topic of enough bug reports, I figured it counts as broken.
- Percentage Penalties are now displayed properly.
- And some good ol’ fashioned typo fixes from Llamaman, Vholes Piper, Mag, NeonGrey, and Cryptodynamic.
Cheers!

- Deactivating alarm in Midgard Bioresearch should work properly. Thanks Llamaman!
- Fighting Shard is no longer a free action. Good catch Factitious.
- Poetry notes now only work on the noted document. Thanks for the bug report, Mag.
- The Golden Chip links back to the net rather than the streets. Good suggestion, Plus4!
- The bauble items (from the Lost Son quest) are gadgets rather than offhand now, to match the switch for Slags IDs. Thanks to Vholes Piper for this one.
- And some typo fixes from Mag, Vholes Piper, Thrillhouse, Plus4, and Borkman.
There are probably some other changes that I missed. If anything leaps to mind, drop me a line and I’ll make sure it gets added.
Cheers!

I just got back from my vacation in Florida (Clearwater, if you’re curious). Bug reports and the like should be caught up, so if you have any outstanding bugs, feel free to pester me again.
As it turns out, all the bugs I remember fixing over vacation are hacking/net combat related. Well that and a lot of typos :)
- Unplugging from a net combat should now replenish net stats properly. Thanks Nyther!
- Javascript should no longer go utterly berserk heading from a net combat to the meatspace kind (well… net-meatspace rather than net-net… yeah) while in Firefox. Thanks for the bug report, Cryptodynamic!
- Intercept Code and Extract Code should now play together properly rather than getting into a fight and breaking all their toys. Good catch, Mag!
- Also, thanks to Llamaman, Al, Xerf, Plus4, Mag, and Thrillhouse for reporting some typos and grammatical weirding.
Cheers!

We have a festive batch of interface updates and bug fixes today… most of which seem to involve gang warfare… hmmm…
- In possibly the most festive update, there is now a gift link in player’s profiles. Top notch suggestionf rom TekRunner.
- Chat now includes a /channel command that will tell you about which channels you’re in and which you could be in. Good suggestion, Wyrd.
- Also chat related, the long-standing request for doublepost prevention was taken care of. Thanks to Llamaman and The Kitchen Sink for getting this on the list a ways back.
- In “shopping” encounters with old coins, your number of old coins in inventory should appear before the choices. Good suggestion, Steaming.
- Corrected some database problems causing issues in PvP. Thanks for the bug reports Caradal, xKiv, and Pyren.
- Changed the Dock’s name in Gang Warfare. If that sets anything on fire, be sure to tell me. Thanks for pointing that out, Vholes.
- In another old request off the list, gang message and description changes are now displayed in the gang log in their own section. Thanks to The Kitchen Sink for that one.
- Also corrected some very festive typos with help from Plus4, Mag, Vholes Piper, and Factitious.
Cheers!

Lots of updates this week. I’ve been puttering around fixing stuff and haven’t gone back to actually post the list, so I apologize if I missed anything.
- Made some sneaky improvements to the riot quest. Good suggestions, Llamaman and Plus4.
- Lo should now respond to Dr. Amundsen’s death properly. Good catch, Soulmech.
- Hitting Enter will search the Mall properly now in Internet Explorer. Thanks for the bug report, Polygon.
- The Ghost Ship should now show up in Completed Quests. Good call, Llamaman.
- Fixed some weirdness with Mikhail acting as questgiver if you let Lo die. Good catches, Happy Yeti and Factitious.
- Targeting a hacking defense twice won’t make the targeting arrow go away anymore. Thanks Wyrd!
- Entering hacking from an encounter will now work properly if you only have 1 energy left. Good eyes, Happy Yeti.
- Corrected an issue with Time Bomb not entirely destroying defenses. Thanks JTN2002!
- I broke Kingly Favor and Ghoultouched with code for the new donation item. Thanks to xKiv, Bonbon, and Borkman for helping me track these down.
- Also corrected a whole load of typos thanks to Mag, plus4, Wyrd, PaidPiedPiperPal, Blarghgh, Jick, and Thrillhouse.
Also, bats.
Cheers!

Alrighty, have some changes in today.
- There’s a new ‘Medicine’ category in inventory for those items that where part of the healing retool. There are a few stray equippable items that use the same mechanic (such as the first aid kit), but these are most of them.
- Stunning Techniques have been reworked so they behave consistently. The short version is that all stuns start on the next set of combat actions. Previously, they were all over the place (with most affecting active players and opponents differently). Thanks to Pyren for kicking off this train of thought.
- When you select an outfit from the dropdown, it should automatically populate that name in the text field, making it easier to modify and delete outfits. Good suggestion, Rykar!
- Fixed a bug that was causing onsite hacking to cost Energy twice. Thanks Llamaman!
- Mikhail now has an appropriate response if you rescue Hel after letting everyone else die. Thanks for testing the corner cases, Factitious!
- And some typo fixes from Mag and Slyspawn. Thanks!
In an unrelated note, there will be a few items being marked as craftable in the near future that won’t necessarily have recipes with the items you have available. I’d prefer to have a few extra marked now than risk forgetting to mark them properly later.
Cheers!

Have a pretty healthy list of updates and have been churning on the Survivors’ Quest. If I get far enough ahead this weekend, I might just drop in some of the hacking goodies I’ve been hinting at. No promises, but I’m feeling good about it.
There were enough hacking fixes that I broke them out into their own section (below).
General Stuff
Ghoultouched’s scaling now caps at a more reasonable level compared to other foods.
Your buy offers in OmniMall won’t show up in the sell column. Thanks to PaidPiedPiperPal and dfmchfhf for reporting this one!
The conversation with Dr. Thomas about Hawk bailing on the deal is now only available once. Good suggestion, Wyrd.
Buying an over/under for the Third Eye at the Happy Hour will now consistently take credits and take them at the appropriate time. Thanks, Al!
We also have a nice round of typo catches from Al and Mag. Thanks :)
Hacking Stuff
- There’s now a “Try Again” option when you don’t overcome hacking defenses, but can still access the target. Good suggestion, slyspawn!
- Sites granting the mimetic sheet recipe should work properly now. Good job not panicking, Mag!
- Fixed an issue where hacking targets could have duplicate names. Thanks slyspawn!
- Also corrected an issue where targets tied to a specific location were showing up in the list. Good catch, llamaman!
- You can no longer hack at 0 HP. Good catch, slyspawn.
- Disabled hacking defenses will no longer report back to the main system. Good catch, Argeth.
Cheers!

A fair amount of updates this week. Mostly today, really. I spent most of the week taking a leg of the Survivors’ Quest from “straightforward” to “wee options!”
Two things from the “accidental petition” mailbag:
- Hawk and Dr. Thomas now have explicit responses to you bailing on their deal and trying to free your friends directly.
- There’s now a link to clear all of your hacking targets, if you’re so inclined. I take no responsibility if you regret clicking it later.
A bunch of bug fixes:
- Corrected some issues with adding new hacking targets to the list. Thanks Argeth and Al for your help sorting through this one.
- Fixed a craaaaaaazy bug where end of round damage could take out an entire group of enemies when paired with an earlier area of effect attack. Thanks to Mag for his spading and patience while I figured this one out. It was quite the doozy.
- The character pane should now refresh after encounters that cost no energy (reflecting new locations, effect changes, attribute increases, and the like). Good catch, PaidPiedPiperPal.
- Hacking encounters shouldn’t give ironic SQL errors when you defeat the defenders. Thanks, Argeth and RazielSonofKain!
Let’s see… SDnanos are now salvagable with interesting results. Thanks, Llamaman.
Also corrected some typos courtesy of RikiTikiTavi, Mag, Caradal, Thrillhouse, Blarghgh, and Al. <3
Cheers!

Alrighty, a couple updates over the past few days.
- When you have multiple opponents in combat or net combat, you should have a little arrow indicator showing which you have targeted. Thanks to Al for the little arrow indicator and everyone who’s tried to convince me to do this over the previous months.
- The drones that Officer Stone brings on are now appropriately replaced when you’re etheric. Thanks Llamaman!
- Officer Stone now stops appearing when he goes into hiding to figure out his next step, rather than waiting until he’s finally defeated. Good suggestion, Llamaman!
- Fleeing from a Gang Warfare fight will give the appropriate name for the person you’re fleeing from. Nice catch Llamaman! There seems to be some sort of pattern with this week’s bug reports, but I just can’t put my finger on it.
- While I was in working on the targeting update, fixed an issue where net combat would go all sorts of crazy if you disabled the defenses on the right first. Good job, self!
- Also fixed up some typos courtesy of Mag, fr00d, and Rykar. Thanks!
Cheers!

OmniMall has gone through some upgrades and will now remember any item that has been listed there for future searches, even if that item isn’t currently listed or in your inventory. The data began recording today, so items not currently in OmniMall should show permanently the next time they are listed.
There are some other updates as well:
- Resolves some issues with today’s new donation item. Many thanks to Al, Zelandoni, and PaidPiedPiperPal for helping me sort this out.
- Corrected some strange issues that occurred when trying to target destroyed hacking defenses. Thanks, Mag!
- Fixed the link back from the donations page. Good catch, Ricket!
- Vigilante encounters in the Sewers shouldn’t refer to Fangs’ setbacks that haven’t occurred. Thanks for keeping me honest, Thrillhouse :)
- Network Scan and Eavesdropping Tools now allow you to see alerts like the Network Interpreter does. Good suggestion, Llamaman and Argeth!
- Also fixed some typos thanks to Dfmchfhf, PaidPiedPiperPal, and particularly Mag.
Cheers!
