New keyboard shortcuts: (These work when the chatbar is NOT up, just like "Z" now)
"T" = Target nearest entity (Player or NPC), "N" = Target nearest NPC, "U" = Use center of view, which is just like a double-left click at the center of the 3dview. Which has many uses, such as opening a door, starting a transaction with a merchant or guildmaster, target and consider someone, begin looting a corpse, and more... "1" - "6" = Activate the six "Hotboxes" currently showing on your screen. "+" and "-" = Cycle up and down through the banks of "Hotboxes". CTRL + PGUP = Scroll the text window up one page. CTRL + PGDOWN = Scroll the text window down one page.
Beware! You will now move slower when you have less than 1/3 of your total hitpoints left. This change does not affect any characters below level 4 in order to give newbies a short grace period, but all characters over level 3 had best be wary.
There has been a fair amount of tweaking done, especially to the Monk class, so be more careful than usual until you "feel out" the changes.
Throwing weapons and bows should now be viable. Arrows and thrown weapons will fall to the ground after they hit something/someone, and can be picked up. Give them a try.
A few bugs were fixed: - Languages should now completely work, give them a try. - Your corpses should still be where you left them, even after a crash now. - The "Who" button was fixed, and should now show a list of who is in your zone. - Many more small interfaces problems...
