	Allowed customization of supported client features via uox.ini
		CLIENTFEATURES
		SERVERFEATURES
		Note that these are bit-settings similar to the way STARTPRIV works.
		One will need knowledge of how to set individual bits in a value,
		or an editor to customize these features.
	Removed CLIENTSUPPORT from the uox.ini

Note I will be adding in support for the two new tags to the UOX3 INI Editor soon.

	Fix the onCreate JS script functions, they used the same event id. So if one didn't
	exist the other was also marked as not existing.
	Changed CPICreateCharacter::Handle(), if the start location for the new PC isn't send
	by the client it now uses the first start location from the uox.ini instead of the fixed
	location in britain.

	Use an enum for the states of the skill locks, makes reading the code a bit easier.
	Fixed cSkills::HandleSkillChange(), the re-ordering of the atrophy created doubles
	and dropped entrys.
	Rewrote cSkills::AdvanceStats() so that the statlocks are actually used.

Grimson, could you let me know when you post an expiremental build that includes your atrophy fix?

Thanks.

Thanks.

0.98-3.7l-experimental3 contains the fix already. Have a look at this post:
http://www.uox3.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=8000#8000, you'll need to fix some worldfile entrys.

Does the program you sent me in the link do a folder search and replace?

(I haven't had a time to download it yet)

Thanks!

	Fixed cMagic::CheckBook(), it was calculating wrong numbers for the spells.
	Let chars randomly fall forward or backward when they die.
	The DISPLAYHITMSG setting from the uox.ini now also controls the damage display.

0.98-3.7l-experimental4 contains those changes.

Does the program you sent me in the link do a folder search and replace?

I don't think so. I personally use JCreator for those things, as it also supports the use of regular expressions.

	Corpses should now display the hair and beard of the char they where created from.
	Modified CItem::SetCont() so that it checks against the item layer instead of fixed
	IDs to see if an item is hair or a beard.

[color=orange]4/09/2007 - grimson (0.98-3.7m)[/color]
	Added a new setting to the uox.ini, LOOTINGISCRIME. If you set it to 0 looting
	corpses	of innocent chars is not taken as a crime.
	Fixed and changed parts of the walking code. If NPCs have the RUNS tag set they
	will really run when they attack, instead of just showing the running animation.
	Tamed chars will now run, if the char they follow is running, this should reduce
	the warping effect of them a bit.

Note:
Attacking NPCs with the RUNS tag (for example guards) can now keep up with running PCs, so it's quite a bit harder to run away from them. So think twice before you use that tag . And remember you can adjust the speed of NPCs with the NPCMOVEMENTSPEED ini setting.

	Remove some not needed code and slow fleeing NPCs a bit down, so that other chars
	can still catch up with them.

	can still catch up with them.

Seems they need to be slowed down a bit more, or allow NPCs instant attacks the moment they get within range... I just witnessed a fighter NPC chasing a wounded ORC through miles of forest (in a straight line) without ever managing to land a blow on it, despite catching up to it momentarily all the time.
