We're working on a bug smashing session and could use your help to test and confirm fixes or find problems with changes in progress. The Test Server is up and ready for testing.
Here's what is ready so far:
Bug Fixes
1) Using Level Up to increase multiple skills in the same group now works correctly. original issue here
2) All resource gathering actions now use the appropriate skill for the gathering time. original issue here
3) Bucket and waterskins decay with use when watering plants. original issue here
4) Health bar display for dead creatures should disappear when creatures are removed. original issue here
5) Problems with splitting one stack to merge with another fixed. original issue here
Improvements
1) Creatures display only health bars. Players display both health and energy bars.
2) Terraforming and Farming (plow) actions can be added to and used from the action bar.
Needs Checking
1) Selection / deselection code cleaned up. Selection / deselection of creatures and entities needs to be checked to make sure everything is working correctly (as on the Main Servers - there should be no noticeable changes).
