Generic

We have a small patch to ACR. Deployment was successful, and should require no recompiles or anything.

Changelog:

• Custom poisons work now.
• A fix that makes the Set Description button on PC tools call up the same GUI for editing as the context menu when brought up on oneself (that is, the one that works).
• Creatures on BEHAVIOR_TYPE_FLANK should now try to backstab nearby people who are beating up their friends instead of attempting opportunistic strikes on distant foes (as that tends to mean doing dumb things like running through tangled melee and drawing AoOs, or drawing a ranged weapon and drawing AoOs).

With a vote of 21 to 8, AnalogKid is elected the new Lead Administrator, now being responsible for the community's election oversight, public relations, and for oversight of and conflicts between other administrators.

The position is defined by our charter, and interested members can read the details here:

Another hotfix of ALFA Core Rules has been made:

• Followup rollout fixes a crash when creatures on the new AI would call to one another for help but not know what to do.
• Also fix cases where stacks of nonmagical special material ammunition would be grossly-overpriced.
• Also dragon disciples need 8 ranks of knowledge (arcana) instead of 8 ranks of Lore. (but, due to the mechanics available with the engine, Red and Gold dragon disciples are the only options that work right).
• Also fixed (greater) shadow touch attacks, which were healing strength damage caused by other shadows this last week.

If you would like to run for Lead Administrator for the next six months please post your self-nominations. Please post your platforms (and question and answer posts) in a separate thread in this forum.

Self-nominations will be open until June 7th. First round of the election will start on June 8th.

Due to taxes in his country with ALFA's funds, Hialmar has recently had to step down as our long-serving Infrastructure Administrator.

Castano has joined the new IA staff to handle all finances. As part of the transfer, we have created a new PayPal account to handle ALFA finances. Please redirect all donations to donations@alandfaraway.org.

As the controller of this new account, please direct all inquiries and discussion to him.
