This item weighs more than the sum of its ingredients. I was working in the arena and could move easily before I made several stacks of this and was over encumbered once it had all been processed.

At level 18 I am getting 1078 xp for melting iron and zinc ingots and nothing for melting copper or tin ingots despite the fact that the latter two materials are more difficult to work.

Casting these various metals seems normal with the former materials generating a base 194 xp and the latter two 388.

Is this perhaps an effect of the beginner bonus?

if you flip a treasure chest z180 it disappears as there is no bottom surface nor texture applied to it.

I am using scholars skin which has a dark background in the chat box. I cannot read the class of messages that includes the emote help text and cannot find how to change it in the options. If you type /emote it will display a list of the emotes that can be used in a dull brown color which is fairly unreadable on a black background. I have tweaked all the text color options under options→interface-advance→chat to no avail. I have grep’d through the xml files without any luck. If I have missed the appropriate location please post it here when you close the report.

Fighting today with a shortsword and a q300 iron buckler. I was getting 2 damage results ~300 with sword practice and ~70 with no practice. I assume the lesser one was the shield bash and should qualify for shield handling practice. Perhaps with the new combat system being developed it will be done differently.

I just discovered this by trying to mount my rivnak immediately upon leaving the death realm and spawning at harnquist’s smithy. Summoning the rivnak worked fine but attempting to mount it resulted in “you cannot mount while falling” message. Once I took a step I was able to mount without problem.

Many weapons and armor weight bear little relation to the input materials. a sabre weighs one but it is made from a stock and 2 ingots which weigh 16 and 3.2 respectively. a claymore weighs 4 and takes 4 stocks to make. This would be fine if they were using different base units of measurement such as decigrams and kilograms but there is only one, unspecified, unit of weight.

a set of chain-mail minus the helmet takes about 125 ingots to make which means it should weigh about 200. It actually weighs 25.

standard gem sockets weigh 2 the same as superior sockets which take more input material.
the ingots used for standard are 1.6, superior 3.2 and perfect 4.8, the products weigh 2, 2, and 3 respectively.

Just noticed today that Guile has added Claws Vortex to her spell capabilities. Perhaps that is new, perhaps not. At any rate her spell lasts beyond her death which seems quite unusual as most spells die with their caster, as far as I know.

This seems to be an unintended consequence of enchanting failure. If you take a loot weapon with one or more affixes and put it into a furnace you wind up with affixed dust. I trashed an ornate long sword of the hammer and got an ornate pile of dust of the hammer. This item could be held in the hand and gave the benefits of the mods to the user. This dust seemed to have the same restrictions as the weapon it came from as a low level alt was unable to equip it. I do not know what effect a stack of such dust might have but I suspect it will be no more than a single dust.

Another player complained to me that battle helms took more strength to wear than his plate mail. I made a variety of helms for him and the only ones he could wear were the mislabeled MA serpent helm and Holy Helm. He reported they gave him MA practice. Other helms I offered him the were steel plate helm and the horned helm. He claimed 180 strength. With a strength spell he was able to equip the steel plate helm. He was already wearing the heavy torso, legs, and arms which could be seen on his model.

I cannot test this as I do not have a character in that strength range, only max or considerably less.

It appears that these items have lost these attributes recently. My items in storage show both the previous behavior on old items and the new behavior on the most recently made items.

Some friendly spells cannot easily be cast in combat as opponents typically steal the selection.

Spells that should default to self if target is enemy or thing: cleanse; life infusion; healing flash; invigoration; curing faith; rinse; rock armor; strength.

spells that should always target self regardless of selection: polymorph; tower armour; necrotouch; flaming weapon.

This list is not exhaustive and reflects my greatest casting ability.

I was thinking it would be useful to add a complex example for /loot in the f1 help as the default examples do not explain the need for commas between elements

something along the lines of /loot weapons, helms, animal possibly including a roll for one or more of those items

It would be useful for events such as the Giant marauder if the GM had a flag that would allow any player to attack him without being grouped with the first to attack. It would also be useful for it to apply to critters spawned by the gm.

waiting for fholen to complete rings take 10 minutes but does not generate quest timer display in active magic window.

when you talk to Allelia and Jomed the dialog options remain the same as before you talk to them.

If you turn off system in main you cannot see the emotes {/wave and whatnot) which are effectively role play actions. /me and /my behave differently, still appearing in main.
It seems that they generate a different kind of message the green >bilbous waves type message which should actually be more like the red name: action message generated by /me command.

The main tab is refered to as system base in the check list at options→chat-tabs→select tabs to show in the main chat window.
if you deselct system base the main tab does not appear. Perhaps this check box should be relabelled to make it clear that this is what it does.

While we’re at it, perhaps the chat checkbox could be renamed channels to make it match the tab it affects too.

unpintable character on page 4 “our wisest elders,?bring” again on page 6 “intelligent, yet ruthless.? He was”

page 2 unprintable character: “upon our number reaching?that” again page 4: “he drew most near.? He” again page 5 “courtyard’s?only living sounds”

on page 4 in the section stones beyond begnout the error “the path must me kept” is repeated from the original book.
on page 5 the unprintable character occurs in the phrase “When?a sacrifice” next paragraph, error “the darkness was that” repeated from original

unprintable character on first page under the second The Cleansing above the first sentence. This unprintable character reappears between all subsequent paragraphs except between the last two.

On page two the word earseyes appears which seems wrong but may be intentional due to the subject matter and origin of the material.

on page 6 “Nearly one quarter”

on page 7 the unprintable character reappears “the
ones?who died”and in the subsequent paragraph “in their path?before”

on page 2: “The stones must bme kept”

in this book there is an unprintable character, represented by a white question mark on a black background, on both the first and second pages.
on the first page in the second sentence in the middle of the phrase “our exalted?octarch”

on the second page in the second paragraph “?Fertedlan Dalko”

on page 5 “the darkness was thatere to conceal me”

when you have a bunch of things of the same kind dealing with the storage interface, they jump around unexpectedly.
For example, if you have 5 stacks of iron solution at q300 (x) and two at q250 (y) they are listed randomly so you may have xyxxyxx. if you take the second x (xyXxyx) the list re-sorts and you may see yyxxxxx or xxxyxy or some other order. This makes it inefficient to take just the q300 ones.

the range on these is inconsistent. standing right on top of a gladiator in the arena isn’t always good enough to fire one off.

sometimes it will use 1 in a stack and then no more. most times it will not use any.
‘out of ammo’ messages despite holding partial stacks in each hand

2 salt + 1 oil of vitriol weigh 2.5, altogether, and make mix of salt and vitriol which weighs 1.5 which is corroded into 2 salt spirits that together weigh 3

I haven’t tried any other kran food yet but once I do I’ll add them here

I one item you might like — missing “have”

[NPC] Noxdar Darmeth says: Perhaps a glyph from my adventuring days?
[NPC] Noxdar Darmeth says: This armour? //not actually an option why does he even say this?

The option 1. [accept food] does not disappear when used and remains available during subsequent dialog.

If you open this file C:\Users\bill\AppData\Roaming\PlaneShift\planeshift.cfg in windows (7) you get an unreadable blob of continuous text.

The same thing is true in C:\Program Files (x86)\PlaneShift\pslaunch.cfg

other files seem to have proper formatting.

there is no visible indication of the progress of your lock pick attempt.
If you do not want to have a progress bar it might be good to indicate the duration of the attempt in a status message similar to repair.

You get no practice for failing to pick a lock.

If we are to accept the proposition that platinum steel is of such high quality that only half the materiel is need to make swords then the knives and daggers need to use half the materiel as well.
Otherwise the swords are requiring too few stock due to the different size stocks between base metals/alloys and precious ones.
