1. New client released with new sprites.
2. Including sprites for the stacked scrolls. If you do not download the new client you will get sprite error messages whenever you see the stacked scrolls..
3. Scrolls stacker now automatically changes the sprite of a stack to indicate a stack or a full stack. This will take effect as soon as the scroll CGI is changed (which will be shortly).
4. Scroll stacks should not sort higher than normal scrolls and full stacks higher than stacks.
5. Step traps (like lab 8) now work with GCTOME flag.
6. Populate now generates the original spell scrolls now the "Old" scrolls when NPCs are created.
7. Pumpkins and Red Letters now generate the original spell scrolls now the "Old" scrolls.

1. Undo
2. Death Mist when killing NPCs with the Special Grave flag set (like in the pents) has been removed again. Death Mist appears to do more than sight and sound effects. Sigh.

1. Stacked scroll counts now shown in White to make the info more distinguishable
2. Spell scrolls can not be "used" if an item is carried. They can be stacked but this change was to stop them being accidentally used by mistake.
3. All the OLD spell scrolls have been converted to new spell scrolls so they should not be stackable. 51 normal, 202 Ankh, 500 Ishtar and 661 Skua scrolls were converted.
4. There now should be no more of the OLD scrolls existing and no more created.

1. /listimage command added for all admin to list all characters that have the IMAGE flag set. This was under the hypothesis that image copies of images may have been contributing to the ML crashes. Alas it was not the case but we have a nice new list command anyway.
