World developers begged for this, now let's see if it is a big mistake :-)
The magic letter is 'P'
GIVE P100
Gives 100 P. Ditto for TAKE, HOST_GIVE, PARTY_TAKE etc.
---
* RIGHT-CLICK ELEMENT/HAND TRAINING LIMIT
So, when you 'sell' your training back for PP, you can no longer sell yourself below your 'starting_xxx_pp' (as set in the levels.txt table for your character class).
---
* ROOM FOR MORE MISSIONS
I think there was an inadvertent size limit on the number of missions you could have, which I have hopefully removed. There is aprobably still a practical maximum of number of missions, but it should be much more than 20 ish now.
---
* NO LONGER ENDS UP WITH NO SKIN when world developers define default skins which people don't have.
---
* NEW QUEST COMMAND: STRLWR
This lowercases a string (which should be unnecessary since the string comparison operators are not cases sensitive)
STRLWR cookieName input
So the first argument is just a cookiename where the output will be stored. The second argument could be any normal thing. If you really wanted to lowercase the content of a cookie (and overwrite the same cooke), you would do this:
STRLWR cookieName, #<cookieName>
---
* NEW QUEST COMMAND: NTH_TOKEN
This allows you to 'parse' a string which contains some number of tokens separated by some delimiter, say a comma.
would result in "three" being put into cookieName. (the first token in the string is 0). Of course your actual string you are looing at will probably be a cookie itself, so a more realistic example is
NTH_TOKEN cookieName, 5, #<input>, ":"
And just to confuse the example, I included the optional final argument which defines the actual delimiter character to be used. (which defaults to comma, but in this example I overrode it to a colon).
Yet another optional argument (after the delimiter) is whether you want to clip leading spaces from the tokens
You can now specify that a spell or item requires N of a particular trophy to be used (4 bullets, 3 gold bars, etc)
You can also specify that a spell which creates a trophy can create N of them (if you lack bag space, no promises are made for delivery)
So, you can now have a spell which burns 4 gold bars, to make 2 platinum bars. Anything more complicated than that (like 2 wings of the wyvern AND 23 snail eyes) is up to yourmad scripting skillz.
This is accomplished by adding a couple mode dotted arguments (see appropriate items.txt and spells.txt for details) something like this:
So it is back compatible with existing worlds, and the counts are assumed '1' if not provided.

* MORE TROPHY COOKIES
Generally, I resist this sort of cookie since it feels like the world developer is the one that specified this info in the first place, so they should just magically already know the answers, but to the degree they help, here they are
num.trophyId
this one is the only read/write one and lets you control which trophy is being considered by the rest of these cookies. If you don't set this first, you will get chaotic data.
Once you set the trophyId, you can read the following:
In addition to the popup hotkey dialog (which I always hated), I have added a more classic button bar (OPTIONAL and requires WoS width 1024 or more)
Anyway, it works just like the hotkey popup window. press Fnn or clicn the button. Hold control to bind the current spell/item to the key of your choice.
For items, the button has a picture of the item, and for spells it has the 'element image' (new) of the spell. Someday I could support per-spell images.
But you really only hsve 8 bindable keys (f5-f12) (did I mention I fixed F10) ?
