Code Updates for 2020 are listed below.

= January 2020 =

* Memory leak(s) in accounts fixed.
** This should allow us to not have to reboot weekly any more. Ancient memory leaks revealed by the 'you're always your own friend' code have been squashed.
* Group Display
**In group display, @n will always display the name of a character. It will not display descriptions, pretitles or post-titles
** In group display and group commands, name will always be displayed without respect to visibility status
* The end-of-line coloring issue has been fixed with the 'what skills can you now get' code
* A target marked with Mark Target will skip their juggle check 30% of the time
* Some score displays will now have more information.
** A previous field indicator was not pulling data properly.
** Are these used in current score displays? good question, but fixing bugs that might not be bugs is one of my scientific specialties.
* Builders have some increased control over how mobs can set their armor and hitroll values. No one's using these yet.
* Legend now compiles cleanly under both clang and gcc. Squee!
* Builders now have more control over how many attacks a mob has, and can even set a mob to have 0 attacks! Also no one is using this yet.
* Builders have the ability to inherit mob stats in real time.
** This means that they can adapt mobs to specific levels after the mob has been loaded without a massive slew of commands.
** Also no one is using this yet. But expect it to be used in instances eventually for difficulty scaling.
* Much churning has happened trying to get code to compile in a more optimized fashion and still... what's the word for it... work. That's it.
** I'm not entirely sure how we ended up breaking code compiling with optimizations turned on, but there's an effort to fix it.
* Tons and tons of warnings identified by a new code analysis tool have been fixed.
