Reply| I'm going to guess you used one of the spheres from the pouches sold at Duskruin. Those will make you perm invis when dropped. |
| [\table] |
| No, I did not. I am a wizard that used the mana spellup ability while invisible and now cannot stop it. Good for shenanigans, bad for actually accomplishing anything. |
| I also forgot to mention that I also revised the messaging of Mana Spellup to prevent the massive screen scroll that occurred when a player invokes it. The invoking player will still see all of the messaging for the various spells, however, the surrounding players will only see one message now. |
As of yesterday I was still seeing the individual spells on other peoples spellups (unless maybe it was the voln thingie? Not sure how that works).
This time I'm pretty sure it's not my own fault!

Any chance you have a log of this occuring? That would help me track down the problem if one does exist. Thanks for the help!

| I had this happen today after doing a mana spellup after a symbol of recall. Is Symbol of recall bugging the message or using a charge of the daily mana spellup? |
Hello,
Have you checked to see if you are running a script that is executing the MANA command and suppressing all of the messaging with the exception of the new line for MANA Spellup? That message should only be displayed as part of the MANA command. Another player ran into the same issue earlier in the thread and discovered that it was caused by a manatimer script. If your sure you do not have such a script running, I can try to look into this for you later on tonight. Lastly, Symbol of Recall should not use any of your MANA Spellup uses, please let me know if your seeing something different from that.

They look very different. Symbol of recall does one spell at a time (I think 1-3 seconds between each). Spellup is one burst of a bajillion spells all at once -- like the opposite of what happens when someone dies.
| You have used the MANA SPELLUP ability 2 out of 3 times for today. The available uses will reset in 3 hours and 46 minutes.>> |

I think you might be confused about how the day-counting mechanic works. If you got this message (2 of 3 times) after using one mana spellup and one symbol of recall today, it wasn't symbol of recall that gave you an extra +1 use... it was because of a mana spellup you did 20 hours and 14 minutes earlier (i.e. yesterday). Meanwhile, in 3 hours and 46 minutes (24 hours after you used it yesterday), your mana spellup count will reset to 0.
In other words, it's not counting CALENDAR day. It starts from zero, counts to 1 whenever you use the ability, and then resets back to 0 24 hours later (regardless of how much you use it in the meantime). It does not reset at midnight or 1am or any other fixed time.

Please disregards my request for a log, I was able to reproduce this error. It doesn't always occur and it only happens under specific circumstances. I am currently working on a correction and I hope to have it out in the near future.

Thanks for explaining, perhaps that is what was meant. I was a little confused myself by the question. Just to elaborate a little more, the timer starts with your first use of Mana Spellup per day, subsequent uses within the same 24hr period do NOT cause the timer to reset.

I looked but couldn't find it anyway, glad I wasn't going crazy :D
Cyraex. I'll make sure to get a fresh day on mana then do some testing. I don't run anything in particular with lich other than uberbar I think, but I'll verify all that before you dig too much. Maybe I had used the mana spellup command earlier the previous day then again in the mid-afternoon the following day and it had yet to expire/restart is my thinking.

Nope, your not crazy! I put a fix in for the problem this morning. Please let me know if you see the old 3rd person messaging from Mana Spellup moving forward. Thanks again for your patience and for bringing this issue to my attention.

That's what I suspected too. Please post up a message if you notice anything strange moving forward and I will look into it.
