https://www.deepseek.com/ >> write a poem about the theme "gnomes are food" Gnomes Are Food Beneath the moon’s pale, glowing light, Where mushrooms bloom in the dead of night, A secret stirs in the forest deep, Where gnomes awake from their earthy sleep. Their hats are red, their boots are green, They’re small and sly, rarely seen. But whispers float on the autumn breeze— A tale of gnomes and recipes. In hidden kitchens, pots do steam, With flavors strange, a gourmet’s dream. The gnomes, they say, are quite the treat, A savory dish, both rare and sweet. Their flesh is tender, their bones are slight, A delicacy by candlelight. With herbs and spices, they’re sautéed well, A story the forest dare not tell. The squirrels watch with beady eyes, The owls hoot soft, the fox denies, For gnomes are friends to beast and tree, Yet on some tables, they’re served with tea. Oh, traveler bold, beware the glade, Where gnomes may offer marmalade. For though they’re kind, and though they’re good, Remember well: gnomes are food. So tread with care where mushrooms grow, And heed the tales the elders know. For in the woods, both strange and crude, The truth remains—gnomes are food.

At least in TG some trade bots left their market huts and stand now somewhere close to it. My guess is, that those bots disconnected , and when they reconneted, the spot, where they use to stand, is occupied by a nasty player, or more likely, by a creature which was just there where the bot used to stand. Maybe making the spots where are bots are located unwalkable somehow, or only walkable for bots, might solve this problem. if not, bots will wander across those market places when they dis- and reconnect until they leave that place. The problem seems to be, that those market places have not many tiles to walk, so any creature can block the spot where a bot is located, and then the bot will show up at a spot nearby. Piper

Is that only me who sees a lot of "Resync with the server..." messages from time to time? I went AFK for a few hours and when i came back, i saw a lot of those messages in a row: Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... Resync with the server... With the old client i had that messages every once in a blue moon, but not that much in a row as with the new client now. This happens nearly every or every 2nd day, or even multiple times per day. Piper

No, i was at my favorite drinking place, when i went AFK, aka the TG tavern. The client was not minimized or hidden. I think, i would blame Firefox for that who causes a lot of trouble for me anyways, like comp crashes, frozen computer and reboots. I might try to use Brave Browser instead of Firefox and see if that reduces the resyncs. Piper

You can join 4 chat channels. Lets say you have two chars in channel 1000 and channel 1000 is for both chars the 4th channel (4th line of #ci). Char 1 can post in channel 1000, but cant see his own posts there. (And cant see other posts either). Char 2 cant see any posts in channel 1000. This only happens in your 4th channel, 4th line of #ci. Piper PS: I changed my own little EL server that it can hold 4 chat channels per player. And this bug didnt show up with the last official EL client and one of bluap's latest clients, so i would guess this bug is in the EL server.

I didnt try that, i added the spells again to the spell bar and changed the amounts in the inventory window.

Yes, filter is active. And after switching between the old and new client a few times now, F1 key works now as expected, same with the spell bar and amount bar in inventory window >.<

Using Linux 64-bit static Different behaviour of F1 key. When showing the TAB map, the old client switches to console mode when pressing F1, the new client does nothing. Piper

Disabling the animation program fixes the graphics issues (no restart was needed). Old client version: Eternal Lands Version 1.9.6 The old client has too problems when the animation program is enabled (no players are displayed, only their names). Going to have a look at the (disappearing) spells and amounts later this evening. Piper

Using Linux 64-bit static Graphics problem, ground items, plants, buildings etc. look okay, graphics of players, creatures, bots and NPC's are messed up. Most players, NPC's and bots have a pitch black skin. I am using custom clothes, if that might be a problem. See attached screenies. And the content of the magic spell bar is gone. And when i switch back to the old client, the spell bar is empty, so i guess, the new client deletes the spell bar >.< And also the amount bar at the bottom of the inventory window is resettet to the original values, my personal settings are gone after switching back to the old client.

I traded with someone at storage and got this error message: Trade session failed. The_Piper can't carry all the items which is wrong, i can carry those items in my inventory, but the items in the trade window were marked with an "S", so they should go to storage. And in storage i had no slot left for those items. So the message should not be The_Piper can't carry all the items Better, less confusing, would be The_Piper has no slot left in storage for those items Piper

https://www.amazon.de/MCAHO-Fußwaschbeutel-Reise-Camping-Faltbarer-Wasserdichter-Fußbadewannen-Eimer/dp/B0BL6ZBSPC/ shows up in the #url catcher as: URL list: > 1) https://www.amazon.de/MCAHO-Fu (seen 1 time) (visited) So obviously the german umlaut sz 'ß' causes a problem, the URL does not work with F2 key. And my guess is, that other national special characters might cause the same problem. Like special characters in spanish, french, czech,, danish and so on. Piper

Fantastic, and it works without problems using UBUNTU. Thanks Burn Piper

R.I.P. Learner It was an honor and a pleasure to have met you. Piper

I tried to carry more than i can carry and got this message: "Sorry, you can't carry this, you are overloaded!" This message is too displayed in the inventory window. And there, in the inventory window, it stays for hours, forever. Suggestion: Remove that message from the inventory window when the window is closed or set a timer and remove it at least after one hour. Piper

The NPC Lord Vermor has black hair, his portrait has brown hair.

The NPC Vaesura has a brown skin, the portrait shows a woman with white skin.

Umm... didn't someone finally shot the programmer who implemented that? Never, NEVER, ever, never, never do that and write passwords in any *.ini files! That is the easiest way someone can steal your character when s/he gets access to your PC! (and that might happen more often than you might expect.) Besides that, Aislinn is right, as usual Piper

The NPC Haidir is a little bit confusing. The NPC itself is blonde, the portrait shows a person with grey hair. The NPC wears an iron chain mail, the portrait shows a person with a dark green shirt. Piper

That tells us everything

There should be a dot at the end of that message. And "pic k points" are in the stats window named "pickpoints". Missing dot at the end. Should be "Press" IMO. There is one space too much between "#abuse", the comma and "explain". And again, missing dot. This is just wrong, since we have the newbie storage on IP. And is that proper englisch? "who roam after dark" After dark is IMHO light, so daytime, but at daytime the gargs are turned into stone and don't roam. "After sunset" might be the better choice. A little bit wrong too, since monsters will stop attacking after you reach some given levels. Maybe "Monsters however will attack first, if they see you and they are stronger than you." ? " posted in the forum, under the Rules category." ==> "press F5 key" And brownies, woodsprites and such? Piper
