I ran into a very frustrating problem the other day. Evidently the main tlk file got corrupted somewhere along the way. Instead of causing immediate problems, suddenly the descriptions of certain things stopped showing up properly. I ended up having to revert to a slightly older version that I'm hoping isn't missing anything. I'm also hoping I didn't accidentally roll it out into the latest patch, as I'm not sure when the problem started.

I also ran into some interesting design problems with Teleportation. It turns out I can get to places I'm not supposed to be able to get to, so I'm going to have to carefully block things off. On the other hand, I still want to give players the ability to sneak into "forbidden" areas and make them feel they're getting away with something.

Finally, I managed to get the Teleportation power into the game like the other psionic skills. Before, players used a book, which didn't quite seem right.
