------
o OLDIR, SHOPOR, and SHOPOLDRIFT have been deprecated.
o Some optimisations have been done to the rift (lag reduced by over
80%).
o Tarot cards, dream motes, and runes will no longer be stored in their
appropriate containers and will instead go into rifts. However, in order
to access the rift, you will still need ONE of the containers. To
transfer from an old replica into the rift, just TAP it.
o You can now sell tarot cards, dream motes, and runestones from shop
rifts. SHOPIND, SHOPOUTD. SHOPINDR, SHOPOUTDR. SHOPINRB, SHOPOUTRB.
o It is no longer possible to create pocketbelts. Any existing
pocketbelts will decay in 30 in-game months.
o There is a new skill in Planar: LiquidRift!
o There is a new skill in Enchantment: Teardrop!
o All vials will now decay in stockrooms, unless they have been crafted
with a sorcelglass sketch. The decay time for vials is now also much
shorter.
o Vials that have been crafted with sorcelglass can now be filled with
75 sips. They will also last longer.
o All existing Runes of Spatial Glasswork have been removed from their
kegs and returned to their owner's inventory.
o Runes of Spatial Glasswork are now known as Drops of Extraspatial
Aethersource.
They can be ACTIVATEd to expand a player's LiquidRift, allowing it to
store 50 different fluids and increasing the max sips of each fluid by
50% of base. Up to 6 Runes of Liquid Expansion can be activated,
allowing a total of 8000 sips of each liquid to be stored.
o Bandoliers can now only hold 10 vials. All bandoliers have been
emptied.
o Any vials in bandoliers will be able to link to two different liquids
in the rift. Vials will fall out of the bandolier when they are not
linked to any liquids.
Miscellaneous Changes
---------------------
o You can no longer skillchoice activate enchantment without highmagic.
o Figurines in pedestals will no longer decay in stockrooms.
o If a dreamweaver flings a mote at a target, and they are both in the
dreamworld, corporeal players will no longer see the mote being cast.
o You can now see what elixir you are drinking in the sip message.
