Various Bug Fixes
on 09 Aug 2025 5:32 PM
from the Official GemStoneIV Discord
on #gamemaster-endnotes channel

Chatelaine
These are a container. If you put something in them, then the ambients on that something won’t fire. This is a normal function for an item in a container.
If you attach an item to your belt (or chatelaine) and us are using wear (item), then bug the item if it doesn’t fire ambients. The chatelaine has nothing to do with this.
Chatelaine’s do work with keyless entry, however, before placing a bug report please confirm the key attached is the correct one for the door. Testing of this function proves it works.

Murex Combs
Funky analyze on these is resolved.
Now has a tier 2.
Unlocks will be available at some point.
Can customize two hairstyles w. the 2nd unlock.
Missing period in touch fixed.

Mandrake
Held Ambient, one of the pronouns was off, this is resolved.
starflowers will appropriately pluralize when the mandrake sticks it in his/her head

SCENTED GLOVES and HANDKERCHIEFS
These items were losing their scent almost immediately. This issue is now resolved.

Yarn Bowl
Whisper was not properly cycling the colors. This is fixed.
Gaze now shows which yarn is ready to be plucked. (verb is tinker)

Unbe-weave-able Mount Items
putting them on or off your mount will now providing messaging.

Ribbonator
Barkcloth is now allowed

Weaving Scissors
The issue with the scissors not working on bolts of fabric from Maellyn’s Fabrics shop is resolved.
These should also now work, as intended, on cobbling uppers.

Bolts of Cobbling Materials
These now have a base analyze.

Jeepers Creepers
Peepers were not appropriately pluralizing. This issue is resolved going forward, current iterations of a bird may still have issues. You should obtain new birds if it doesn’t appear to transfer correctly.
cormorant feathers now include the R!

Life Aquatic
There’s this very rare, very random bug that causes a sea critter to pop into your hand utterly blank. This has been resolved and instead of coming out broken, it just wiggles away.

Isle of Ornath
Asmora – some of her questions were not displaying correctly because they were stored as a capitalized words. This is resolved.
Seamstress – double “Seamstress says” messaging is resolved.
Some minor typos (unnecessary hyphens) were resolved.
Slap was erroneously listed as a verb. Its been removed from the list.

Rockspawn
I got a bug report about the shadesilk. This is fixed.

Lambs
Have decided to frolic after their owners again.

There are about 7 Lathe bugs that I’m trying to track down. There is no need to continue to bug them. Hang tight.


Lathe I believe I resolved all 7 of these bugs!
