I am now too busy for Lugormod again. One of my other projects started to take off around the same time as I got hired by a small business.

Unfortunately, this came right after I decided to dedicate more time to Lugormod, and pulled apart the profession load/save code to make it work with 3.0 features. As it stands now, this task was never completed and the mod will not compile without it. Even small changes are impossible until I get this sorted out.

I am currently looking in to expanding the Lugormod project so it no longer relies on me, but that too takes time I don't have much of. I am open to suggestions, but my current thoughts are to bring back the beta.#.net features back to make the site more or less run itself, giving me and other coders the top tasks based on votes and how long they have been around for.

FYI I will be gone next week, so don't expect responses then. Not that I have been finding the time to respond recently anyway...

Too busy with college to do much of anything.
Good news! This is my last week!
Bad news... next week I am stuck with jury duty.
Next week? Mouth surgery and a week of pain medications.
After that? Back to college.

Basically, no time to work on the mod until at least 3 weeks, and I am not sure of my work schedule then.

Also, the notification system has broken due to some failed update. I don't have much time to fix it, but will make it a priority as its my only real connection to this site right now.

Fall knockdown will now only occure on a magor fall (32 damage or more).
Falls doing between 8 and 31 damage will now cause a weapon delay and a sharp speed decrease for a short instant.
Fixed tavion and desann saber styles having no speed penalty while attacking.

This release is mostly for bug fixes, but it brings in a few new features and balance changes as well.

This version has compatibility issues with previous versions. Accounts saved with this version will be bugged in older versions.
Read the rest of the post for more information.

Highlights

• Fall knockdown is much more sane now. Knockdown will only occur on a 200-delta (32 damage) fall, rather than on a 40-delta (8 damage) fall. This is around 15 times the player's height. It may be lowered in the future.
  
• 50-delta falls now cause a slight weapons fire delay and lower your maximum speed for a fraction of a second. Enough for a slight penalty and slightly more realistic, but not nearly as annoying as knockdown.
• Accounts can now be used in game types other than FFA. Not all game types have been tested, but the simpler, nonspecialised types such as capture the flag should work. The reborn game type has been specifically redesigned to handle accounts, and will enable or disable an individual player's profession based on the team they are on.
  The holocron game type is probably broken now, as it will let force users "cheat" by using their account skills.
  
• The new skill system is now enabled. The skill command will give detailed information on what effects every level of every skill have. This information might be incomplete. Lugor never documented the skill effects, so the information reflects what I could find in the code.
