* Bows can now be stringed. Arrow shafts and arrow heads now are not repairable and should be quicker to make.
Notes on archery: Archery is hard to learn. It is supposed only to be usable against creatures with fair skill and good equipment.
To gain skill quickest, practice with hunting arrows that have no penalties.
All bows have a 'best distance'. That distance is 20, 40, and 80 meters (or roughly 5, 10 and 20 tiles) for the bows.
Shooting at shorter or longer ranges will affect the difficulty.
Arrows will be shot in the following order: 1. from quiver worn on body, 2. from quiver in inventory (or if 1 is found but is empty), 3. arrow held in hand, 4. arrow in inventory.
If a quiver is found at 2 but it is empty, no arrow will be shot. This should give you good control over which arrows are shot. Arrows are fired in the following order: 1. War arrows, 2. Hunting arrows, 3. shafts. War arrows do more damage, but are slightly harder to hit with. Shafts do little damage and are hardest to hit with.
* All three religions should now be able to pray at the Altar of Three.
* Bugfixes with /ranks.
* A bug where the finished item received the wrong material was fixed.
