Time for some fixes!

o The pesky bug which caused delays in reaching higher momentum levels
has been eradicated.

o A new message display for monks has been added (which can be turned
off with KA MOMENTUMMSG OFF) which displays when momentum is lost and
gained. See AB KATA PUNCH for more information.

o Blackout from mobs will no longer stack.

o The change from announce 1355, in which failed focus no longer
consumed mana, has been reversed.

o You can no longer blow an algontherine whistle if under divine grace.

o If both sapped and choked, the time delay will reflect the longer
(choke).

o Resistance gained from ecology charms now works correctly.

o Dreamweaving motes and runes fused to demesne will only work if the
owner and target are in the same area.

o Consciousness (Athletics) now requires and consumes equilibrium.

o Beast Dismiss is no longer forceable.

o Falling in a pit as a result of a failed forced move will result in
you falling in that person's pit, not the non-existent pit in your own
room.

o You can no longer use Bubble (Aquamancy) in most prone states.

o Movement blocking for avatar rooms now works as it should.

o Hemiplegy given by cosmic guardians will automatically choose the
un-paralysed side first.

o Dispelling illusions on yourself is no longer aggressive.

o Demigods who are dead in the Domoth realms will no longer lose essence
(until they run out of mana, of course).

o Several issues with use of the Surfboard artifact have been resolved.

o Disarming a trap with a bell will now return silver comms as well.

o Challengers for a domoth will not be masked by skills that obscure a
player's name.

o Shiptalk and the touch emote will respect snubbing.

o Using nametells will not break teleporting and similar abilities.

o Special movement like transversing will not allow entourage members to
follow if they are sprawled.

o If on the way to stealth rush you acquire a condition which would
prevent its completion, it will not complete.

o The pacifism mote from Dreamweaving will correctly respect oolong tea.

o If a beast is following its original owner when it gets sold, it will
automatically stop following the old owner.

o Attempting to speedwalk while sitting on a piece of furniture will
automatically get you off of it first.

o You can wear piercings by number now (rather than just keyword).

o Quickburn (Ecology) will be more regular in the way it displays
prompts.

o "Following" messages will respect stealth masks and other
identity-hiding abilities.

o You cannot speak on mindlink if in a coven, or coven if in a mindlink.
Sorry, telepathic wiccans!

o Miscellaneous issues with the powerlog summary were corrected.

o No longer will attempting to mask your non-existent pet result in an
untrapped error!

o Several typos and grammar fixes which should not affect player
systems.

Enjoy!
