ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

Mindslayer Auras/Shields no longer require knowing the skills before them (though a level progression exists). This is a neat setup, as it allows for Auras to be chosen based on personal preference without sunk costs on previous ones.

There is, however, a bug that's constantly reproducible here: get to L4 with a point in Kinetic Aura, take the point out of Kinetic and place it in Thermal. If you had Kinetic Aura up, it'll still be up, and you now have Thermal.

This isn't broken, by any means, as a L0 Aura/Shield scales horribly. But since you could possibly, say, do this and accidentally block off your new aura until you fix the bug (since the two-aura rule is still in effect).

It's really not a major bug, but just turn off without spiking the Auras or Shields if they get unlearned like this to avoid further hassle/people getting confused about it.

Okay, a bigger bug popped up: a LUA error with Mindlash.

What this seems to be doing: does the damage fine, but doesn't seem to be knocking it onto cooldown, costing time, or costing Psi. In other words, I'm able to kill anything in its range, slowly, for free.

Its range is also one shorter than it claims, which merely delays the inevitable mindlashing my character will bestow on everything in the world.

Gotcha. Thanks!
