Various Fixes and Updates Made

on #gamemaster-endnotes channel

Life Aquatic Devices
When you peer and get a failure but aren’t near water, it will no longer tell you that you are looking into the water.

Mourning Glories Line of Flowers
Some Boutonnieres were accidentally marked as functional. Analyzing them will resolve that issue. If you do stuff to make it functional, then it will revert.

Gem-in-ator
Please stop bugging gems that don’t stack.
Either they are weirdly built from the start or something is clearing a field on them.
This is not a bug.

Vasculum
Please stop bugging foraged items that don’t stack.
This is an issue with how the foraged item is built, something is different from the others and causes it to not stack.
This is not a bug.

Much like the bag of holding, these items need to be identical to stack.

Dye-n-ator
There was an issue with pinch creating bottomless dyes. This has been fixed.
There was an issue with pinch setting the charges to a max of four instead of emptying all dyes. This has been fixed.
Anyone caught in the 2nd bug likely didn’t notice as their vial became permanent. Therefore, we aren’t going to change anyone’s dyes.
There’s a report that dyes going into the dy-n-ator weren’t properly using their full color. This is a dye issue and not a dye-n-ator issue. Every single vial that was created was properly built. This should hopefully be addressed in the dye fixes.

Veythorn Souvenir Shop
If a foraged item can be eaten, then there is a better than average chance you can’t use it here.
Any foraged item prop that is created as poisoned will be edible.
Not all foraged item prop items will work at the Souvenir shop due to the type they are.

Mandrake
There was a bug with mandrakes and anything that had a noun of flowers. This is now resolved.
