Re: Minor bugs

Erm, I apologize for being a pain in the ass about this and I promise I'll shut up about it afterwards, but after making a mess in the wiki while uploading the new version I noticed that there are still a lot of "debris" pixels in the corners of the image, although less noticeable than in...

Banners for All!

There have been several requests for Twilight Heroes banners to show off your heroism in other forums (fora?). So, with some help from my enterprising wife (thanks, Lyz!) we have four new class banners. Feel free to use them directly with the code here or copy them to whatever image repository you p...

Okay, the stuff not respecting Snowday should be working now, although it's possible other places still have problems.

The PP and HP drain should also be working properly again. That was just a code change breaking things.

Hi jonball,

It's one of those things that's bound to happen eventually, but honestly isn't on the immediate agenda. My main focus for coding at the moment is leagues, but it wouldn't surprise me if I put some time into interface improvements (like recipes) after that.
