Couple of bug fixes
on 11 Nov 2026 at 6:28PM
from the Official GemStoneIV Discord
on #gamemaster-endnotes channel

Book-inator
Property Owners now have control over allowing others to take books off their shelves.
Magical Barrier is on by default.
Pinch lowers the magical barrier, allowing others to take books off your shelf.

The Portable Adornment Cabinet
Properly labels items as Trim

Beard Critters
Added Analyze & Dropdown Menu

Ribbonator
Fabric added to a Ribbonator now keeps its descriptive word (e.g. “crimson”), so ribbons come out correctly.
Tier 1 and 2 Ribbonators no longer get stuck when the fabric has no descriptive word; TURN hands out ribbons normally.
The SPIN confirmation now shows the full ribbon name and matches what TURN produces.
Ribbonators that can’t be POUNDed no longer tell you to POUND them.

Solhaven Ranger’s Guild
Food on bar has been updated

Frying Pan
Trying to add a second primary ingredient no longer erases the first, which made LIGHT/CAST say the pan was empty.
Mushrooms can now be primary ingredients.
New ingredients: ghost peppers, peppermint leaves, green and yellow plantains, sugar cane, pineapples, watermelons, and 20 non-poisonous mushrooms (golden hook, red trafel, genkew, white hook, sponge, Stormpeak, Titan Crown, and more).
Pans already affected must be CLEANed.
Mushrooms that the pan won’t accept are on purpose. Do not bug them.

A couple of bug reports for the cobbling press that holds trim, leather, and soles were labeled as adornments.

Gloumerick Books
The following books were not converting properly and now are:

Triumph of the Light
Taki Rassien’s legacy and its effects on the Crimson Legion, by Aureliano Tiberius Vaalor
Ember Ridge Orchard’s First Annual Cookbook
The Myth of the Black Unicorn.
