It's hours past when I should have been asleep but I had to pop back and get my first taste of backtrace in more than a year. Oh frabjous day! Moon mages everywhere will be rejoicing. Stalkers and would-be assassins are now revealed in the cleansing light of the moons.

Interesting. I didn't change that part of the code or at least... I thought I hadn't?
Serious question though - does anyone care about time sense with the expanded TIME I wrote awhile back? It's rather outdated and I can give it the axe even easier than fixing it if no one cares about it.

I like time sense. It's a bit sad that it's obsolete because of the TIME verb. Perhaps something can be done to spice it up? My suggestion would be to indicate the position of the sun in the sky similar to moons so we have a more precise idea of when it is going to set and/or rise.

Shadow servant sensing is wonky. From a single room away I get, "You sense your Shadow Servant is extremely far away." No matter how far or close I move that is the only message I get.
I also think there used to be a message saying your Shadow Servant was right beside you if it was in the same room? Right now there's nothing displayed if it is in the same room. I could be wrong about this one.

I think time sense is pointless and I hope you don't spend development time fixing a redundant ability, unless that's what makes you happy (seems unlikely).

Is it days away? Where was that posted?

In the 3.1 release post in the latter half. Unless there's another delay (certainly possible) then it should be over in the next 2 weeks give or take.

Spell preview is slated to "a few weeks" after 3.1 launches, per the official 3.1 launch post.

Kind of odd with Seers Sense.
I was in Crossing, the other person was on Hara'Jaal. (I replaced her name with *)
You sense the Seer's Sense link upon you, connecting you to * and it should last around twenty-seven roisaen.
A star upon the blackness of night is what she is to you.
Full of life, and ready to meet Fate is she, standing to face her future.
You sense that * is free of combat at this time.
You perceive a faint trace of Elemental magic clinging to *.
The following spells are on
Drums of the Snake
Rage of the Clans
Glythtide's Joy
Naming of Tears
* has no spell prepared.
Then I opened a gate and we switched places, me to Hara and her to Crossing. Same rooms as before.
You sense the Seer's Sense link upon you, connecting you to *, but you can sense only their vaguest existence.
We switched places again and got the first result.
Switched again and got the second result.

Yup. Going to go ahead and say my simple fix to those (Which basically involved relocated the code to a more useful place) ended up biting me in the ass.
I have a good guess where it all went wrong and will look into it later today.

Oh, no, the Seer's thing wouldn't have been a result of my tampering. Most likely your location had warding against clairvoyance in place so you could sense her while you were the and when you switched she was now in the warded location.
At least that's the most likely explanation I can give you without more specifics based off the messaging.
And let's see if that fixed the time sense and servants.

I dunno, testing it again. Getting mixed results.
But, PERC WATCH is not showing that someone has a mirror on me like it used to.
A shimmering mirror of shadows appears momentarily in the air above, briefly revealing *'s face.
perc watch
You sense no clairvoyance in the area.
Roundtime: 3 sec.
I mirrored her and she could not see me watching with PERC WATCH either.
Had other people look in her mirror and saw the initial messaging, but nothing on PERC WATCH.
