Progressive Save Timers

• Server Saves will now occur at every 10 Minutes + 1 Minute for each consecutive days of server uptime (no crashes/patches)
• For instance, if the server has been online for 5 days without crashing/patching, server saves will be occuring every 15 minutes

Lift Delays

• Performing a Lift Action (lifting an item) will no longer create a delay for players to Use an item

Disarm / Hamstring

• Fixed some issues that may have been causing some players to have their Disarm / Hamstring “untoggled” after various intervals (requiring them to re-toggle it back on)
• Players who have Hamstring or Disarm set to automatically untoggle will now receive “You may now attempt to Hamstring/Disarm your opponent” messages after swing attempts

• Each Shrine Corruption Wave creature is now “released” from their summoning portal and appears after a random duration (3-30 seconds)

• Fixed an issue where players could summon Mount Tokens in certain Mountless areas (although they would be dismissed as soon as the player moved)

Tamed Creatures

• Whenever a player or tamed/summoned creature performs a harmful action to another player’s tamed/summoned creatures, it will flag them (and their pets) as grey to the victim for the next 2 minutes (this is a safety check to ensure players can fight back against players doing harmful actions to their pets)
• Tamed/Summoned creatures that have been Pacified with Peacemaking are no longer frozen, and instead may use the following commands: Come, Follow, Stop, Move
• Fixed an issue that was causing the Mender trait to not grant the full healing bonus to pets

• Players are still capped at having an effective max of 100 Magery for damage purposes, even with scrolls, however
