When I finish downloading the update, the window shuts down without an error message with the update uninstalled. The console reported "md5sum of updater.zip does not match correct md5sum" how do I fix this?

     The current gameplay mechanics allow you to check other players power relative to yours by checking their description. This is a good thing both for rp and game-play, as it can be explained by how strong you perceive them to be, and can be used to make fight-or-flight decisions. It would also make sense rp-wise though, that with enough skill you could alter others' perceptions of you. My suggestion is for a static skill that can slightly alter the readings other's would get. A good enough assassin would make sure they look harmless in order to assure they are more successful. Possibly there could be a skill for both directions, Deceit, for appearing to be weaker, and Bluff, for appearing stronger. A side-affect of the skills would be being able to see through others' changes, as a bluffer would know the tricks, and a deceiver know when others are pretending to be small.

In the pslaunch, when, I click on choose settings, controls, the options box is empty. This is a nuisance, since, having a mac, the left shift and left control don't give a response in game, so I can't run. How do I fix this?

Superstition is part of society. It remains for long periods of time, even after it is proved wrong. It especially existed in medieval times, and the times after that. I think to make the game more believable, superstitions have to start going around.

I am NOT suggesting Game masters use their alts to spread superstition. That would be inefficient, and eventually die out, no matter how much it is spread. What I am suggesting is to implement very strange relationships in the coding, such as, when a fish is near you, you will mine better (I don't know what the coding for mining is, but I assume it is a percent chance, which could be increased by variable fish.), Or a knife near you increases energy depletion (they don't all have to be good.). WHen it is implemented, the developers would admit they exist, but not tell specifically what they are. This (I assume), will cause a wave of superstitions that people will follow, even if they don't actually do anything, such as, never carry four of anything, or spin around before a battle to make yourself stronger. There can also be race-based superstitions, like Krans make everyone around them less agile, and Klyros make everyone around them have less strength (and so on and so forth for each race.). This will make the game more realistic, because in real life, people wouldn't be accepting different races (and that is just skin color) even if they avoid showing it. Whether or not a lot of superstitions are implemented is not as important as announcing they exist, since I'm sure RPers are more than capable of finding out (or thinking they find out) some of there own.
