This forum houses many years of development, tracing back to some of the earliest posts that exist on the board.
Its current use is for the continued development of the server and game it has always served: TMW Classic.

Please report any crashes; I have touched a LOT related to magic. Particularly, it would be beneficial to test every single spell and procedure under every code path.
In other news, this is a reminder that when Ubuntu 14.04 is released (in 23 days), I will be dropping support for gcc 4.6. This will be the last gcc requirement bump for a few years.
After the latest update.
I tested spells i use most: asorm, plough, betsanc, lum, ingrav, manpahil and inma all seem to work as intended.

I've discovered the cause of the crash when you attack with no weapon - a bug in old code. It was actually exposed by the change before the magic change.
The main server is not vulnerable because the out-of-bounds access hits a field that consists entirely of zeros.
I have put up a warning on the test server's news asking people to please avoid the crash until it is fixed.
